Read order? Recommendations etc appreciated.
TIA
Oldest to newest?
By publication date or story timeline?
I've read dead tree series where the series has an over all story line and clear time line, but books in the series were written and published out of order from the story time line.
Another example(s) would be the late Steve Miller/(still with us)Sharon Lee's groupings of stories, better known as the Liaden series ...
As have I, some of Mercedes Lackey's Heralds of Valdemore come to mind. Sure each set in the over-all universe can be read separately, yet if you get them by time line some of the earliest (time-line wise) were published long after the first ones were published.
I've seen it where they started a series with a time line that had some gaps, then later went back and filled in the gaps.
Personally if I'm binge reading a series, I'd rather read it by story timeline than publication date if the two don't match.
Exactly! Oh it is Heralds of Valdemar. And I recommend reading them by time-line. Thus I ask for recommend reading order.
Which of his series? Trader's Tales is 6 books and starts at Quarter Share. You can get more info at his site as to how the different series mesh together. Audio version is available at that archival place.
