“The Promise,” not available until November 10, 2015.
You promise a chronological order for the books, not just publication order. You lie, like Obama.
The publication order is the same as the chronological order, from what I can tell. The order of the last four books is: The Watchman, The First Rule, The Sentry & Taken.
(And since when was a politician lying new?)
