New here sort of - looked in last year but didn't stick.
Read All SRB's stuff except the Man Who novels although I bought them for the collection and never read them. Well, last weekend it rained continuously so I thought I'd give the first one a go. Now I'm half way through book three and can barely force myself to put them down.
Read TC1 and TC2 in the eighties after they were all available so was in the position of being able to read all six without any breaks between. I think I'm benefitting from that with the four MW novels though it looks like I'll have to wait for number 5.
As for TCL, should I wait 8-9 years to buy them all before I start reading from the beginning? :)

Welcome to the Watch! I personally don't see how you can wait for all of the Last Chronciles to come out, so I would say read Runes now.

The "The Man Who..." series are mystery novels written by SRD - I haven't read them, and I'm not sure what the names are (The Man Who Killed His Brother is one, I think).
