How to describe a comparison between three objects?

Question

I am comparing three things, but how could I describe the relative order in a single sentence?
For example, is "A is greater than B greater than C" valid?  Or is there a formal way to describe this?

You can, but you need two clauses for the two different points being made, e.g.:
A is greater than B, which is greater than C.
A is greater than B, and both are greater than C.
etc.
