5. A Night Without Stars
6. The Dreaming Void
7. The Temporal Void
8. The Evolutionary Void
Where did you get the idea that they fit before the Void Trilogy even chronologically? They take place in the same time frame as the Void Trilogy. So surely the publication order would be best (especially for plot/setting familiarity)? I cannot imagine how freaking lost I would have been had I started the The Abyss Beyond Dreams before The Void Trilogy.

At least do people the favor of mentioning that you're suggesting the books be read out of publication order (with no canonical recommendations for doing so). To do otherwise is presumptuous.
