Denise asked C.P. Lesley:

Do the 5 books have to be read in order?

C.P. Lesley Hi, Denise, and thank you for asking.
Books 1 and 2 are largely independent, although some of the relationships in The Winged Horse will be easier to understand if you have already read The Golden Lynx.

Books 3, 4, and 5 will build on the setup in the first two novels. Each story will stand alone, but certain characters whose fate is uncertain in the early novels appear in the later ones (or are visibly gone from the scene), so someone who reads the series out of order won't wonder whether these characters do or don't survive. If that kind of thing bothers you, it would be best to read at least those three in order.

The Golden Lynx and The Winged Horse are already in print. With luck, the others will come out at 15-18-month intervals, starting in late 2015 or early 2016. I am working on book 3 now....
Happy holidays,
CPL
