OK. So I'm pretty confused about what order to read these books in. I've heard such great praise for Stanek so I'm dying to start reading but I HATE to read out of order. I just ordered “The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches (Keeper Martin's Tales Series, Book 1)” from Amazon. Is this the correct place to start or should I have started with “Ruin Mist: Keeper Martin's Tale (Ruin Mist Chronicles Series)”? Is there a difference between the books? Is the second a collection of the Keeper Martin's Tale books? As you can tell I'm pretty befuddled so any help would be appreciated. If there is a list of all the books and what order they should be read in that someone can direct me to I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Ok...
Keeper Martin's Tale= Kingdoms & the Elves of the Reaches1+2.
Kingdom Alliance = Kingdoms & the Elves of the Reaches 3+4.
Starting Robert Stanek is an excellent choice. You'll love the books.

Keeper Martains Tale and Elf Queen ands the King are slightly different than the two others which are kids editions.

So if I read Kingdons & the elves of the reaches 1&2 it will be different than reading Keeper Martins Tale?

Sort of. Keeper Martains tale is the adult edition, so some of the vocabulary is harder and some of the scenes are more violent and different.
