Reading Order
“Where do I start?”
It’s a question I usually ask when someone recommends a new author to me.
My stories are made to fit together. If I do this right, there will be big, epic, awesomeness <TM> as all lines converge. At least there will adventures (good and bad) for all involved. Some books you can read out of order without the risk of spoilers, but others really work better in sequence. (As of April 2018)
The chronological order option:
An End to Summer (Spirit Lands)
Lies that Blind (Spirit Beasts)
Wicked Masquerade (Forbidden Secrets)
Snow Mistress (Forbidden Secrets)
Taming the Brat (Forbidden Secrets)
Blood Feathers (Forbidden Secrets)
Paying the Dragon’s Price (Forbidden Secrets)
Dangerous Seduction (Forbidden Secrets)
All Thorns Eve (Gems)
Heart Bound (Forbidden Secrets)
This is the 'From Reality, Straight Down the Rabbit-Hole' reading option:
Wicked Masquerade (Forbidden Secrets)
Snow Mistress (Forbidden Secrets)
Taming the Brat (Forbidden Secrets)
Blood Feathers (Forbidden Secrets)
Paying the Dragon’s Price (Forbidden Secrets)
Dangerous Seduction (Forbidden Secrets)
All Thorns Eve (Gems)
Heart Bound (Forbidden Secrets)
Lies that Blind (Spirit Beasts)
An End to Summer (Spirit Lands)
Other mix-and-match order:
Although I recommend reading about Ursa, you can jump in at Blood Feathers (Forbidden Secrets). After that point in the series you might run into spoilers.
Lies that Blind (Spirit Beasts) and An End to Summer (Spirit Lands) can be read at any point. The stories don’t hinge on the later or earlier books of any series as of the posting of this timeline. They share characters with the other series that will give you glimpses into things to come, or provide insight on things that happened.
All Thorns Eve (Gems) and Heart Bound (Forbidden Secrets) should be read after Dangerous Seduction, but can be interchanged in the reading order.
To current readers: What say you?
What order did you read the stories?
Of the sea and air.
