Best books to learn Software architecture, in order

Architecture can't be learned from a checklist of patterns; it's about trade-offs, and trade-offs only make sense once you've felt the problems they solve. The right arc goes from design principles and clean boundaries, to the classic patterns and styles, to distributed systems and the hard realities of scale—each stage giving weight to the judgment the next one demands.
