It does, however, have a lot of useful information and world-building for exactly how this whole thing holds together.

I've given up deciding what the "correct" reading order is, beyond noting that certain books are direct sequels, and some others build on information in previous books. But even there, I find it matters less than I thought. Whatever order you choose, enjoy the journey.
Now reading Agent of Change, which is a change of pace from the others.

Spoiler:
in addition to my previous disappointment about Anne and Er Thom I now find out that Aelliana died when he was young! Maybe reading the parents stories first wasn't a good idea, haha!
