Amidst book three. Are the last five worth reading? _refugee_

As long as I'm correct and we're talking within the context of the Amber books (look, it's early, my eyes are blurry, if I'm wrong just tell me), I would read at least until Book 5. After that, comme ci, comme ca. You might get mildly frustrated with them? But it would be a mild frustration, I think, nothing more, and I don't think they (the latter 5) would negate your enjoyment of the first five.

What I mean is, since my default is obviously to read them, will they negate my enjoyment of the first five in some way. I read fast so I don't care if they don't add a single iota of enjoyment to the series as long as they don't ruin it too.

Oh. Right on. Rock on, then. I read like the first five, and then lost interest.
