It's up to you, but I really think that you'll get much more out of it if
you read the books in sequence and read Long Sun before Short Sun. They are
intimately related. To do it the other way round would be like reading _Urth
of the New Sun_ before _The Book of the New Sun_. Once you start reading
Short Sun, you'll want to go off and read Long Sun anyway, so why not take
them in order in the first place?

Or let me put it another way. Long Sun is brilliant, so why miss out on a
treat?
