This is probably a stupid question, but I have no shame, so I'll ask it anyway
If an agent asks for "the first chapter and two other chapters" from a novel, would it preferable to send them chapters 2 & 3, so that they can be read in a sequential order and the agent can get a feel for your style etc. ... or is is better to send them chapters from the middle and end, to show how your plot develops?
I've had a look through some older posts and couldn't find an answer to this. Thanks for any help!
