I admit that sometimes I wish I started with the second book and somehow crammed in some "so you might be wondering how I wound up here piloting a mecha while fighting billionaires" record-scratch exposition after the fact.

There are some trilogies where the final part is basically a prequel to the first two parts, it's a narrative device that can work well in certain contexts. The Ace Combat trilogy on the PlayStation 2 does this, the final game in the trilogy is titled "Zero" and explains how the game world ended up the way it did. Just don't go around making an entire prequel trilogy to explain the previous trilogy (Star Wars... )
