Michelle asked David Moody:

I loved the Hater books (as well as Autumn series)! I am currently reading "Chokehold" and am noticing some familiar characters from the earlier books. Wonder if the books are meant to be read in the order written or if a re-read of 1 or more may be more enlightening?

David Moody Hi Michelle, thanks for your questions. It's great to hear that you've enjoyed the books. Glad you spotted the returning guest stars in the Final War novels! There were a couple of reasons for writing the second trilogy - first, the original Hater books told a very one-sided version of a very two-sided story. I thought it would be good to go back and look at events from a different perspective. Second - when the books were announced it looked like we were going to get a Hater TV series (a major studio was about to film a pilot which, for one reason and another, got cancelled before it got off the ground). I thought a series of the first trilogy wouldn't work that well and that it would need more twists and turns and characters. So I wrote the Final War books to wrap around the original Hater series and fill in the blanks. There's an infographic on my site that explains how the books are connected (http://davidmoody.net/2019/10/03/end-...).
