While it is not strictly necessary to read the first 2 books before this one as they aren't direct continuations, I feel like you gain a lot of context about how the world works, especially from the second one, that really helps you understand why the characters may be the way they are and why they choose certain actions.
Also, read the whole series because they are all amazing, but again super heavy on character development.
