The first book that I read was Dragons Dawn, I myself think it's the best
way to start I don't know why it's not the first book that everyone reads,
but to me it makes sense to know where they came from, up front. Although
Dragons Dawn is rather slow at the start but it hauls you in and you can't
stop reading it. I've never tried to read the books in time order I think
that would be too complicated as some books are tied together and I think
you would have to have two books going at one time. I'm presently reading
Dragons Fire but I'm finding it slow at the moment but I am only into the
2nd chapter. I love the series no matter how it's read I even love the
Cattani series and wish there were more of them.
