I first read them in whatever order we managed to find them. Stateside in the '50s, this meant Swallows and Amazons, followed by Great Northern, which were still in print here, then the others as we discovered them cached in the back room of the local library. Since then, and my mother's fortunate discovery of the British Book Centre in New York, I've read them in series order, generally omitting PD & ML, which I never found as interesting.
