Douglas Adams — 8 titles in the rankings, first published between 1979 and 2002. They average 8.0, above the 7.8 the whole catalogue averages. 2 of the series have a reading order worth keeping to.
Editor’s note The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is the clearest case here of a series rated lower with each book: 8.58 for the first, then 8.21, 8.08, 7.96 and 7.71 for Mostly Harmless. Read the first two at least — together they make one story. Dirk Gently is his other, stranger series.
