Now that I'm almost done The Broken Crown (1st book of the Sun Sword ), I'm ready to buy the rest of the series. I see she has a 2 book set (The Sacred Hunt) that introduces some characters from the Sun Sword books. My question is - should I read the Sacred Hunt first before I get back to the Sun Sword?
I must say that I took a while to warm up to her way of writing. I really have to pay attention and often read some passages over again. Despite this, the plot is really beginning to gel, and I'm starting to appreciate its complexity. There is quite a bit of politics (not usually a plus for me), but I see how necessary it is to set the backdrop for the relationships of the characters.
 
I'm going to answer my own question with a resounding yes. Before starting book 2 in the Sun Sword series, I finished Hunter's Oath and am getting into Hunter's Death. These 2 books are an easier read, plus introduce some background and characters (albeit minor ones) that you see in Sun Sword. I had a few aha moments that clarified some of the goings on in The Broken Crown.
