So I accidentally read book 4 before book 3 because I couldn't properly remember book 1 and 2 and the recap bit at the beginning of book 4 made me think I'd read the events of Silverthorn in book 2… or something. I'm stupid. But anyway, I read Silverthorn after Darkness and Sethanon and it was all good because I still loved it. More so than any of the other books. I guess it was a more straightforward story with fewer characters so it was easier to enjoy. Jimmy will always be the best.
