Michael I'm **way** behind on my Royce & Hadrian books. Do you have a list somewhere (I thought I remember seeing it) of best order to read them in?
Michael J. Sullivan
Hey Carl, I recommend reading in order of publication so that would mean the following order:
* Theft of Swords (Riyria Revelations #1 and #2)
* Rise of Empire (Riyria Revelations #3 and #4)
* Heir of Novron (Riyria Revelations #5 and #6)
* The Crown Tower (Riyria Chronicles #1)
* The Rose and the Thorn (Riyria Chronicles #2)
* The Death of Dulgath (Riyria Chronicles #3)
There are a few short stories, which are written to be stand alone stories and can be read in any order these include:
* The Jester
* Professional Integrity
* The Viscount and the Witch
I would not that the last one (Viscount and the Witch) actually is the seed that grew into the Riyria Chronicles. As such, it ended up being chapter #2 of that novel, so if you've read The Rose and the Thorn - you can skip that short.
Thanks for asking.

Hey! I'm an Audible listener (reader) and was so glad to see the map for the Riyria Series on your website. When I tried enlarging the map it becomes pixilated and hard to read. I just finished the rose and the Thorn and would have liked a map for the town. Your words paint a lovely image, but maps for Tolkien and Game of Thrones only enhance the experience. More maps?

Hi Micheal, a huge fan, read all of Riyria and currently in withdrawal. I'm sure on behalf of all readers l can safely convey the sentiment that our hearts sink when you use words like 'overstay' and 'get tired' of the pair. We can never get tired. Please never think of abandoning Riyria. You are so good with them l think you can write about them in your sleep.Hope you'd get back to them soon? Thanks.
