But there could be other characters that are or are not there and if you read #22, you spoil that big time. And there could be things that happen to Harry that you spoil as well. It's not as standalone as you think. In fact, it's not standalone at all.

Then you have series like Dresden Files where by book 4 or 5, you really HAVE to have read books in order because it is an ongoing story arc.

Yes, you do have to read series like this in order. And then again the Harry Bosch series is also one you have to read in order. You show me one series where nothing written in a book that's at least the 5th book where it has nothing to do with the books that came before. You can't because it's not possible. It doesn't work that way.
