The Sequences highly praise Jaynes and recommend reading his work directly.
The Sequences aren't trying to be a replacement, they're trying to be a pop sci intro to the style of thinking. An easier on-ramp. If Jaynes already seems exciting and comprehensible to you, read that instead of the Sequences on probability.

Fair enough. Personally, so far, I've found Jaynes more comprehensible than The Sequences.
