Talk:The Serpent (novel)

Order of novels in the Atlan series
I'm not exactly sure about the order of the books except that Serpent is the first and Some Summer Lands is the last in the series. I've read only Serpent and Atlan yet; and while according to all sources Atlan was the second published book, and can be the immediate sequel to Serpent (since its storyline can be understood without having to read any book that can be between the two), it is mentioned as the third book everywhere, including the book cover itself. Possibly Dragon was written much later, but its story is set between the first two books. I don't know. – Alensha   talk  21:40, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

It goes (as described on the Jane Gaskell article): The Serpent (1963) The Dragon (the second half of 'The Serpent') Atlan (1965) The City (1966) Some Summer Lands (1977) 165.225.38.84 (talk) 17:50, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
