Blood of Kerensky Triology

Twilight of the Clans Series
The books about Archer Christifori (Measure of a Hero, Call of Duty, Operation Audacity)
Not neccessarily in that order

1) I much prefer the pre-Clan Battletech world.
2) Michael Stackpole will always be the Bard of Battletech
3) They just happen to be real well written.
After that I would say "Wolves on the Border", "Heir of the Dragon" and the original Grey Death trilogy (not the later 3050 era novels)
of the newer series Stackpole's Blood of Kerensky trilogy was still good, and set the game up for another era well, I just find that most of the books after, tend to lose some of the "feel" that brought me in to the game.

2) Victor Milan's Camacho's Caballeros series
3) Blaine Lee Pardoe's Archer's Avengers series
And of course the iconic Blood of Kerensky trilogy...

My first favorite was the Jade Falcon series with Aiden, but mostly due to it being the first Battletech book I read. I would have to say that the Gray Death Legion is my favorite Merc group, and over all favorite novel series. They feel like old friends to me, I was sad when they killed most of the original characters off in one book. I would say that the books with Archer Christifori in them are also up there in the list of my favorite Battletech series.

I have no favorite as I have never read a book from the Battletech universe. Would you guys have a book or book series that you would recommend I start with? I have read the wikki and while I have a shakey understanding of the historical order, I would prefer to lobby for personal preference before beginning...

My favourites are the Clan-Invasion Series, the Counter-Invasion and the whole plot till final Only Book missing is Storms of Faith
( Stürme des Schicksals in german )
And one of my single favourites is Impetous of War ( Vater der Dinge ), the attack on Wildcat-Base against the Diana-Galaxy ^.^
