‘Don’t be scared, newbie.’ – Curt, MF#18
If you’re brand-new, and you just want to jump in feet-first, this is the first chapter of Book #1. If you want a bit more a guided tour, please see below.
Likely, the most important thing to understand about the reading order is that we’re embarking on a rewriting process, in order to bring the books up to standard with what I’m happy to release to the even-wider public (as with a lot of serials, what is originally released on here is a first draft, so there’s inconsistencies and errors, and whatnot).
As such, we refer to the “old canon” books as 2.0, and the new works as 3.0/”the Kindle editions”.
Mirrorfall, the first book in the series, has been rewritten and released as an ebook.
***
Mirrorheart, the second book in the series, is currently being rewritten.
The soon-to-be superseded of Mirrorheart still does exist on the site, but it’s probably the one book I would prefer people didn’t go back in read, in light of the upcoming rewrite. The Agency holds the idiot ball for a large portion of the book, and Taylor’s treatment of a visiting agent is so OOC that’s it’s cringe-worthy (they have a far more positive relationship in the rewrite, now that I know Taylor’s character better).
My suggestion, honestly, would be to read this *spoiler* page, and skip straight to Mirrorshades.
***
Mirrorshades, the third book, will have its rewrite following Mirrorheart. The rewrite of Mirrorshades will have its differences, obviously (and I have a longer coda planned – though this may actually become a separate book/novella), the story will be largely the same.
***
The Grey Edge, book four. This is another one I have some issues with, so the rewrite will likely take a different route, but it contains important character development, if you care about the violence specialists who run the Combat Division.

Oubliette, book five.
