Default Harrington Series vs. Tournament Poker For Advanced Players

I want to do some reading on NLHE Tournament poker. I've always planned on reading the Harrington series as they're quite popular (and I've heard they're good too). I just recently, however, found the Tournament Hold 'em for Advanced Players book. I love both the Hold 'em for Advanced Players and Small Stakes Hold 'em for Advanced players books. Because of that, I was considering reading it. Does anyone have an opinion on which of these I should choose to read? Maybe they're both worth reading, but if that's so, is one particulary better than the other, or would one choice be better as a first read and the other as a second read?

Any input would certainly be appreciated.

The HOH series largely obviated the need to read TPFAP.

I saw another "read the sticky" reply to someone, but I'm thinking this must be referring to a no longer existing sticky...since the one now is a cover design contest. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Can anyone point me to this old sticky that apparently has lots of information on these general questions?

You don't sound like an "Advanced Player", so stick with the Harrington Series.

Harrington by a mile, as matter of fact I wasn't that fond of TPFAP

Harrington has been an easier read for me. So far I am through vol 1, half was through 2. I am kind of stuck on inflection points.
