Hello. This is my first time posting on the forum but I have been an avid reader since about last year (Didn't have an account).
Well let me get to the point. I just finished working through Spivak's Calculus book through self-study. I have been looking around the forum and I have read suggestions about being better to do Linear Algebra before diving into Multivariable.
Well here are my questions, I've considered using three books by Dover:
What do you guys think of these three books? What level of rigor do they posses? Is Spivak sufficient enough to read those books?
By the way, I am going to be a community college student this coming fall. I am going to have to "officially" take calculus, linear algebra, differential equations etc, through books that focus a lot in computation like Stewart's. If you have better suggestions on what I should do please tell me. Thank you for your time.

- Advanced Calculus of Several Variables, C. H. Edwards
- Linear Algebra, Georgi E. Shilov
- Ordinary Differential Equations, Morris Tenenbaum
