Neil Turner asked Neil Turner:

Must the Tony Valenti Thrillers be read in order?

Neil Turner This is a tricky question. It’s a significant challenge to write each series novel to stand on its own without weighting it down with too much backstory from previous books. This can slow things down for those who have read earlier books. Then again, not enough backstory runs the risk of leaving new readers somewhat adrift when it comes to character motivations. As Tony’s stories are written with overarching character and story arcs that unfold over the course of the series, I suspect they are best read in order, but a number of reader's say otherwise..
