I’ve been getting a lot of people looking for reading order and while I do have a couple posts floating around in the Shrike Bikes Facebook group, I had forgotten to update the reading order page when I got this new site (like two fucking years ago! – SORRY!)
So… here it is! (I’ve included some specific characters that pop in and out in different places (and at different ages). If you don’t know who they are, don’t worry. Eventually you’ll bump into their origin story.)
IN THE BEGINNING
