Personally, I wouldn't worry, as reading the books in an order different to
the published order could shed light on different issues, because you'd be
coming at it from a different angle. I'm reading the Short Sun books first,
and then I plan to read either the New Sun or the Long Sun books. So I'd go
with whatever your mood is, as, if nothing else, it will mean that you
'read' the Wolfe-Urth-universe in a personal - and perhaps quite fruitfully
non-linear - way.

My two cents :o)

Best,

G.
