I acquired the books (discounted) in the last few years but haven't reread yet. For Incarnations, I've only read On A Pale Horse (read it again a few years ago and enjoyed it). My brother has the series in ebook so I'll get to it eventually. He very much enjoyed it. I just recently started Orn (bought that and follow up ebook during Kobocalypse some years ago) not realizing it was book 2. My BIL scanned a copy of book 1 for me as it is not available as an ebook.
Omnivore, Orn, 0X (it's "zero-ten", not "ox", go fig).

Just... stay very far away from the Battle Circle series. Bio of a Space Tyrant pales in comparison to the brutal violence and misogyny depicted in the Battle Circle books.
