The first one is great, and you don't want to miss it. The
second one's good too. After that they get worse, and it
seems to be just a matter of how far you make it before you
give up. I read OPERATION FIREBALL (the third one) first, and
liked it, but I read later one recently and that did it for
me. THE NAME OF THE GAME IS DEATH, the first one, is from
1962, so they probably don't have it. Depending on how much
they cost, buy the earliest one(s) and see how you like
it.
