Where do I begin?
A key issue with Crockett is where to start. With so many works to choose from it can be hard to know how to find which text any specific person will enjoy best. It largely depends on your personal interests.
We're constructing a list of 'choices' to help you on your way (and are happy for feedback on how to tailor this more specifically)
The first downloadable PDF file below lists the full works (ie, excludes the compiliations) with their main geographical location and historic period.

Give me more!
If you like sequels here's a heads up for some choices:
The Black Douglas 1 and Maid Margaret 2
The Men of the Moss Hags 1 and Lochinvar 2
Silver Sand 1, The Raiders 2 and The Dark o' the Moon 3
(can also be read in published order The Raiders, The Dark o' the Moon and Silver Sand)
The Red Axe and Joan of the Sword Hand (linked but not strict sequel)
