Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series is the reason why I never start a new multi-volume series unless it is already completed.

I still remember seeing the first 3 paperbacks in the store. Thinking ahh a nice finished trilogy, what a trick that was.

I actually prefer my fantasy series to be unfinished. For me, a solid majority of the enjoyment is figuring out events and more from clues and foreshadowing.

There are so many things that I picked up on the third read through that I simply would have been told in a later book if they were all available.
