Things to consider
Start with Series #1 (The Fingerboard Workbook) and #2 (Daily Exercises) if you're building from the ground up; both are book-only and work well as warm-up materials. If you're intermediate and want to jump to comping or improv, #3, #4, and #5 pair written instruction with audio or playalong tracks, so you'll get the full benefit of learning by ear. The Bach playalong (#4) is valuable for jazz phrasing even if classical material feels tangential to your goals.
