Having read an interview with Crider, and some other background, I am also interested in trying his Truman Smith series, and I already have a western he wrote in 1998, so I am going to diversify a bit too.

I would lean toward the earlier books if you can find any of them. If not, I think anyone that you find would be good.

It may be best to read them in order as newer characters are introduced and fleshed out, but that's not a major consideration. the basic rule of thumb is: When a Dan Rhodes mystery falls into your hands, do not let go! Read it no matter where it falls in the series. You can't go wrong.Jerry Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482856733981933159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167054806459662988.post-76187889202021845582017-01-04T22:43:53.381-08:002017-01-04T22:43:53.381-08:00Ok I have decided this author & series will be...Ok I have decided this author & series will be the one for the Texas leg of my virtual tour of the USA because you've talked about him so glowingly several times. So the question is...what book? I'm unlikely to get through all 24 so do you have a recommendation for one that you think would work particularly well as a place to enter this series?Bernadettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07641617609801125707noreply@blogger.com
