the order of the short stories

Today someone asked about the best order to read the various short stories set in the DEMONSOULED, THE GHOSTS, and the FROSTBORN worlds. Really, you can read them in any order, but if you want to read them in terms of the series’ internal chronology, they would go like this:

For THE GHOSTS:

#1 GHOST ARIA
#2 GHOST DAGGER
#3 GHOST CLAWS
#4 GHOST OMENS
#5 GHOST THORNS
#6 GHOST UNDYING
#7 GHOST SWORD
#8 GHOST PRICE
THE FALL OF KYRACE (takes place hundreds of years before the main plot, so can be read at any point.)

For DEMONSOULED:

#1 The Dragon’s Shadow
#2 The Wandering Knight
#3 The Tournament Knight

For FROSTBORN:

#1 THE SOULBLADE’S TALE
#2 THE ORC’S TALE
#3 THE MAGE’S TALE
#4 THE THIEF’S TALE
#5 FROSTBORN: THE FIRST QUEST

At some point I’ll start combining the short stories into omnibus editions, with little notes indicating where the included stories fall in the series’ chronology.
