That you read the Elemental Masters before the Jousters. The Masters have more depth to the books, but the Jousters are a good quick read.
Really, your choice, I just give recomendations.

Hullo all! *spastic waving* I'm a newcomer, and figured I should introduce myself. :) I'm Tiff [sometimes known as Soba], a friend of Le Jai's [and was prodded into PPC by JulyFlame]. I'm still very much a n00b when it comes to PPC, but I'm quite willing to learn, and very much looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Hi! Um... you've most likely gotten showered with links and all already, so: 1) good luck and have fun, and 2) Have a Convenient Towel to add belatedly to your newbie-gifts! It'll change color to whatever you want at first, but it settles after one color change. It'll still pop up when you need it though.
Welcome, Sobakasu! I wish you more luck than me in trying to get Permission!
One can never have too many newbie gifts. XDD Thank you very much~~ Oooh, that's nifty. :3
Thank you, and I wish you luck as well! :O
More late greetings, but welcoming nonetheless! I gift you with some twolips from Xanth. Admire the pretty flowers, but don't get too close unless you want to be kissed. And I'm pretty sure they're not sentient, but you never know around here.
Late greetings are still very welcome~ And oooh, thank you~ :O Very true, very true... I'll watch out for that.
What a late greetings it is.
*presents with large block of Blumble ice*
Use this with care. xD
Ah, that's alright.
Oooh... -pokes- :O
Aye-aye! -salutes-
just now, I see that you are in Alas Babylon. Silly meh.
I shall name you Kasu-Tiff. Yes, I do realize the nickname ought to be shorter than the real name. :P I hope you are not insulted by the sheer randomness of it.
XD Yaap~
Oooh, new nickname!
Random rules the world. x3
Yes indeed~ :3
Have a mug filled with a beverage of your choice! Quaffing is purely optional.
Oooh.
Welcome, welcome! Hope you have fun.
Have a carnivorous rubber zebra and an urple welcome mat.
~Eni
Hallo~ :O
So - what, exactly, does a carnivorous rubber zebra eat? And thank you muchly for the urple welcome mat~ :O
It eats sue. The sparklier the better.
Welcomes, hail and well met, and such other phrases. Lovely to have you here.
In case you couldn't tell, I'm Cassie from Alas Babylon, and we met through JulyFlame and Le Jai.
Anywhoo, newbie-presents. *hands over a bag of pebbles and a Random Shiny Object* There ya go. Throw the pebbles at Sues and marvel at the Shiny Object's shininess.
Have fun, and don't worry about your sanity. Most people leave it at the door.
Lovely to be here~
Ah, yes, I know a Cassie~ :DD
Ooooh. Shinyshiny~~ Thanks! :3
Ah, no need to worry there; most people would say I didn't have any to leave. :D
It is my goal to never use the same nickname twice. We shall see how I go. Welcome to the PPC.
Ooooh... Ganbatte yo! XD
Have some welcome lembas!
Always good to have new peoples around
Oooh... Sankyuu~
Glad to be the new peoples around~~ :3
esp. ones who are fun to chat with :)
D'awwwww, you flatter me~~ And you're verah verah fun to chat with~~ :33
Useful things, them.
Welcome! Always nice to meet someone new.
I gift you with psychic paper, newcomer! Very useful for getting places uninvited, just don't let your mind wander when you use it.
And I'm certain you're more newbie than n00b. Planning on ever writing for the PPC?
I've wanted some for a very long time~~ :00 Arigatou gozimasu~~ D'aww, thank ye kindly. Certainly do, after I get settled in~ :) Seems like loads of fun, and a nice way to vent at all the badfic issues so rampant in fandom anymore~
I do believe I met you last night...we were talking to the snapeybot. XD
Welcome to the insanity! Here, have an egg whisk. It's gold-plated and, hey, it whisks eggs! Use it for good and not evil.
Oh! Yes! :D I believe I remember you~ ... and of course, how could I forget the snapeybot? XDDD
Oooh... :O I solemnly swear to use it only for good. [... does pranking count as good?]
Welcome to the board. Try to keep a firm grip on your sanity. It's usually the first thing to go.
Pfft, that? Don't worry; it's been questionable for years already...
Lo, it is cuddly and evil! And green!
:O Does it have a name already, or can I name him?
I dunno, I'm going to Germany in a couple of hours. Bratwurst seems appropriate.
Hope you enjoy it here and have fun and stuff!
Oooh, Germany~ *is jealous*
Thanks! :D I'm sure I will~~
Welcome to the PPC! I give you a harpsichord. Because harpsichords make everything better.
Indeed they do! Thank you kindly! :) ... I could actually almost play one, once-upon-a-time...
Welcome to the PPC. What fandoms are you into?
Heh, better question would be what fandoms am I NOT? XD I range all over the place - LoTR, HP, Peirce, Lackey, various Anime/Manga, RPG... and so on and so forth.
Which serise have you read?
I have read almost all of her books.
Leto
Arrows of the Queen, Last Herald-Mage, To Catch a Thief, and in the process of reading Exile's Valor/Honor. XD I'm actually fairly new to the Lackey fandom, but I'm enjoying it immensely. I plan to read the dragon-jousting series next...
That you read the Elemental Masters before the Jousters. The Masters have more depth to the books, but the Jousters are a good quick read.

L
I'll look into that, then! I'm pretty sure we have the Elemental Masters series somewhere here at the library... *ponders*
... knowing my luck we won't have all of it, though.
Thank you muchly for the rec! :3
They are all stand alones. But if you can, read them in written order (The Fire Rose, first) the nomenclature and ideas will make a little more sense that way, not much more.
L
That's a relief. I had to wait nearly a month for the final book of the Herald-Mage triology to come in; oh, the woes of being a broke college student... XP;
... at least working at the Library means I don't get fines. 8D;
Will do! :3 I know we have that one, I've seen it in the YA section...
