[QUOTE="michaeljpastor, post: 9261706, member: 81243"] A lot of people suggest reading books in chronological order instead of publishing order, but I never will be one of them. I don't wish to take away from the magic you experienced at the formative age of 11 - I can definitely see how Dawn would be eye-opening as a first book. But the gradual reveal over the course of the novels through archaeology, physical anthropology and literary drips-drips is unintendedly masterful - I can think of few sequel/prequel combos that do it better (George Lucas should have taken notes). If you have a younger reader, the Harper Hall books are a great start, and if you have an adult alternating between the young and adult books is perfect. [/QUOTE]
