I read TOP first and would recommend it (just don't get too tied up in understanding everything first time).
If that makes any sense!

That does make sense. I usually approach poker books by reading them cover to cover initially. I will then reread them and study the concepts in detail. Sklansky's books usually don't flow very well and the sections seem disjointed, so once you're aware of the content you will find yourself referring back to certain sections as and when you need to.
