Deus Ex: Icarus Effect2011
NovelRecommendedabout 9 hours

The books fill in Adam Jensen's years, from Detroit to Prague.
Story order starts in 2027 with Jensen's era and moves the original Deus Ex and Invisible War to the end, in the 2050s and 2070s. Icarus Effect and The Fall come ahead of Human Revolution because they run alongside its opening months, and A Criminal Past moves before Mankind Divided because its mission happens earlier. It's the order for a replay once you know how everything connects. On a first run, Human Revolution would give away surprises from the original, so use the recommended order instead.
