Reading the series in chronological or release order?

[Sirlaughalot]

I've only read the Old Kingdom novels in the order of release with a couple of rereads (not the whole series) here and there but am considering rereading it in chronological timeline order. I think it'd be neat to follow the storyline of each character to their own conclusion in a [hopefully] cohesive manner.

For folks who have done that, was it worth that type of read through? Would you recommend it? Why?
