How to Read the Gifted series
Mostly standalone stories with recurring characters in a shared setting.
The Gifted series does not need to be read in order. Each book tells a complete story with its own resolution. Continuity is limited to recurring characters and setting. Reading out of order does not cause confusion, as every book clearly introduces its featured student’s ability and delivers a self-contained story within the same school environment.
