My advice, read The fall of Reach, The Flood, First Strike and Ghosts of Onyx first and in that order as they are one connected story arc. The rest are not directly related and can be read at your own leisure.
This.
Though, I'm reading it in a very screwed up order. Cole Protocol, Cryptum, and now I'm reading the Fall of Reach and next is The Flood, and I plan to buy Contact Harvest next.
So yay for screwed up order. -/shot-
