This is wonderful to have. I recently ( 3 years ago) have started enjoying the novels of Lawerence Block and now I am going to start on this series. It is always essential to me to read series of this type in order or at least try to. Came upon the 3rd one and read it first, loved the concept and premise, so now I will be purchasing these in the proper order and reading them the same way.
Absolutely imperative that you read the Scudder novels in sequence, as you chart his life and times over nearly 30 years.
