I am on Leçon 34 of 64 of Le Danois Sans Peine, and I am unsure which coursebooks
or grammar workbooks would be appropriate to follow upon finishing. I see
Grammars/dp/0415491932/ref=pd_rhf_gw_s_t_4">Danish: A Comprehensive Grammar on
Amazon, but it is quite long and costs more than 40€.

I think you'd have more luck with something monolingual. You should be able to handle
this after Assimil.
I can't name any particular book, but you can look at the courses given in Denmark at
the 'folkehøjskoler', language institutes and those targeted at immigrants to get an
idea about what's available.
And then add some reading and lots of listening of course.

I've just ordered some books from www.saxo.com/dk aimed at foreigners learning Danish in Denmark. They've got quite a good selection.
There is also a Website (www.alfabetaforlag.dk) which is dedicated to Danish language learning for foreigners. Here material is listed according to the various language levels.
Unfortunately, although there is a very large selection of text books available for learners of Danish in Denmark, the prices are extremely high.

I suppose that this is the site:
Alle Titler
which seems to have books at around 245DKK, or equivalently, 32€, which is honestly quite
expensive, but I
wonder. That grammar book on Amazon is probably aorund 45€ too...

1e4e6: Just a small tip:
Linking to a specific book on Amazon generally requires just the "dp" and the ten-digit ISBN number in the URL, including slashes. Everything else in the URL is just filler. You can simply cut the other stuff before you copy or bookmark an Amazon URL. Since the HTLAL system truncates longer URLs it's safer to use short ones, where possible.
Which means that with the Danish book one can shorten the URL to:
http://www.amazon.com/Danish-Comprehensive-Grammar-Routledge -
Grammars/dp/0415491932 (still truncated)
or even better just:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/0415491932 (works!)
