You should read them in order really to get the gist of Banks marriage breaking down ,his children , His parents,brother his love of music and what he does outside the job etc . But they stand alone individually as good crime writing . He's very popular .His new one Fixing to Die is published in August .

I agree with ShaneyStar.They are excellent books, each one seems to improve on the previous. Read in order, you'll get to know the characters and their likes and dis-likes. Although Peter Robinson did I believe once live in the Dales, he now lives in Canada which makes his research of a very high calibre.
Can only agree with the above. I think this is one of the best series of books (17 in all) that I have read involving one central character. They never get stale and the progression of Banks' career and private life through the series provide a lovely backdrop to the stories, each of which stand up in their own right. I am about to re-read them all in order
