Okay, because I’ve seen a couple floating around, and I just made it for my partner who’s reading them for the first time + I know a good few of you follow me for tlt stuff: Here is The Recommended Reading Order for The Locked Tomb

1. Gideon the Ninth

2. The glossary and “a little explanation of the naming system” from the end of the GtN

3. “A sermon on cavaliers and necromancers” and “cohort intelligence files” also from the GtN paperback

4. The Mysterious Study of Doctor Sex, which you can read for free here:

5. Harrow the Ninth

6. The HtN glossary and the “Blood of Eden Memorandum For Record” which is included in the Harrow paperback

7. (Here’s where you face a choice, because after Harrow, you can either

A) go back and reread Gideon the Ninth, which I highly recommend, or

B) read “As Yet Unsent” from the Harrow paperback if you just want to keep going.) if you do A, just do B afterwards

8. Nona the Ninth

9. “The Unwanted Guest” from the Nona paperback

(Note: This assumes the reader has the current US paperback copies, but if you are listening to the audiobooks [which I highly recommend]/have a different edition, [I know, for example, that libraries prefer to generally have hardcovers when they’re available] this is a series where I think owning/reading multiple formats is worth it, but you can probably find most of the supplemental materials online, and if worst comes to, most of the bonus material is short enough that you could probably read it while in the bookstore pretending to think about buying the book. And, if you just want to read the novels/don’t care that much and just want to see where this goes, you can always just read the mainline books and come back later, but that’s not really the point of a full reading order.)
