I've found that most people do better if they work up to 'Hamlet's 
Mill'. I generally recommend that people first read Anthony Aveni's
'Stairways to the Stars' and William Sullivan's 'The Secret of
the Incas' before they tackle 'Hamlet's Mill'. The first is a good
general work on what's called archaeoastronomy these days, the 
second is a specific application of the ideas and methodology
described in 'Hamlet's Mill' to the history and archaeology of
Andean civilization.
