I decided to read The Bourne Deception by Eric Van Lustbader. I am up to Chapter 6 and there are so many references to past activities that I am a little confused.

So I decided to see what the prior books were.

It seems that Robert Ludlum is the original creator of The Bourne novels. This one is labeled Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Deception by Eric Van Lustbader. I looked at the list of books and see that Lustbader has written three other Bourne novels.

My question is - if I go back and read only the three Bourne books written by Eric Van Lustbader will I have the complete story as he has written it along with these refer-backs? Or do I need to go back and read all of the Robert Ludlum books about Jason Bourne also.
