I always read series books in order. Only way to do it. When I first started reading iBooks, I’d check the free bin. Discovered a lot of good series that way. Including all the series I mentioned, First book free.
I was hooked.
Another good author is Dana Stabenow. AK native and while I never been there, she really does take you there.
I cried when Vince Flynn died. The writer that has continued the series has a similar style-almost a seamless
transfer. But I still miss Vince.
