Which order should i read these books?

Ok, so i have just purchased SuperSystem 1 and 2, HoH 1,2 and 3, Holdem Poker For Advanced Players and Winning Low Limit Holdem by Lee Jones.
Is there any particular order i should read these books in?
I would like to start out with the less complicated, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I started with a couple of books by Lou Kreiger, then I read Winning Low Limit Holdem by Lee Jones. All of which were about Limit Hold'Em, but the Jones book had a good section on NoLimit Hold'Em S&G's. I've read some of the chapters in SS #1 & #1, the preliminary chapters and chapters on a few games [Razz, 7 Card Stud], basically on an as need basis. I'm currently reading HHH #1, and plan on finishing all three before the Sklansky books and a full re-read of SS #1 & #2. Probably not the best sequence, but I had heard about the Kreiger books first, then learned about the others as I read more.

To fill in any missing concepts, probably SS2. Hate to tell you this but I understand SS1 is available online for the cost of the download.

Most everything in SS2 is current, while SS1 covers a few games not played so much anymore.

My understanding of the HoH series is that they are fairly advanced.

Save Hold'em for Advanced for last - I found it to be a sales pitch for Theory of Poker more than anything.

It depends. Are you looking to improve your No Limit Hold em game? If so, read in order HOH 1, HOH 2 and HOH 3. If you want to improve other games, read SS 2.

As stated of the books you purchased if its no limit then HoH series.

Depending on your level aliengenuis has a list of a few that would be best, such as Phil Gordons books (i know its not in your list), before reading a HoH book.

Try not to read all books one after the other though, you want to fully digest what you read and experiment by implementing them into your game.
