OP, can I assume this is mostly for internet play? If so, be aware that the LHE games have become much tougher in the past two years. That said, I think Stox's book is likely the most relevant now, especially if you're going to be playing 6-max. A few months back, I started a thread about applying Stox's tactics to mid LHE games and got some excellent advice about how to (and how not to) employ the tactics in his book.

As to the other books: 4,5,8 helped a lot. Hilger's book was good for the games 2 or 3 years ago, but not that helpful in today's games IMO. TOP (2) is good for anyone's game.

1,4,5 are great for live play.

My $0.02 fwiw
