What Is The Correct Reading Order For The King Of The Underworld Novel Series?
After stumbling upon this dark romance series, I'm totally hooked but the fan sites list different sequences. Could someone clarify whether I should follow publication dates or internal timeline for 'King of the Underworld'?

Oh, the classic 'where do I start' question. The author's website actually has a chronological timeline that's super helpful. It lists everything, including the prequel novellas 'Rise of the Fallen' and 'Crown of Shadows,' which are best slotted in after the first main book for maximum emotional impact. Reading them first spoils some major reveals in 'King of the Underworld.' Trust me, publication order is your friend here, not strict in-universe chronology.

The series order is the least of your worries. Finding physical copies of 'Emperor of the Underworld' for a reasonable price is the real quest. It's been out of print for ages. Good luck! Maybe check digital or see if your library has a lending system. The hunt is part of the fandom experience, sadly.

Wait, does the manga adaptation follow the same order? Because I saw that first and it seemed to start in the middle of things.

Fun fact: the audiobook versions sometimes bundle the short stories differently, which added to the chaos. The narrator confirmed on a podcast that the intended experience is the main trilogy in order. The other tales were commissioned later for specific anthologies. So, if you want the author's pure vision, stick to the big three. Everything else is gravy.

***This is the third book in the series***
I lost the girl, the love of my life.
I lost my family.
Now I’m lost.
I thought after the war for Riocht, life would get back to normal.
I was so very, very wrong.
Kellen, now King of the werewolves, thought after Lamia and Mathias claimed the throne and became the King and Queen of shifters, life would go on as normal. That he would rule his kingdom and search for his own mate and live happily ever after.
There was still so much to do. He still hadn’t completely taken control of his position as King, leaving his father’s Beta and Delta in charge. Kingdoms and packs still needed to be repaired; he still needed to be officially crowned.
And he still needed to grieve the death of his parents.
Kellen wakes up to find himself on a boat, going to Goddess knows where and the last thing he remembers is saying goodbye to Lamia and heading home with Mike.
When he finds himself in a strange land, sold to a bloody thirsty Alpha and his deranged Luna, for their packs entertainment, his title, means nothing. A man who cares only for three things; the games, the money, and blood; the more shed the better.
While Lamia and Mike search for him on the wrong continent Kellen is thrust into the Gladiator games. Kellen fights for his survival and the lives of many, including one beautiful girl who has captured his heart and has been promised to another as their chosen mate.
Can Kellen survive the Gladiator games when the odds are stacked against him, save the people and claim the mate the moon goddess promised him?
