Unless possibly they thought the first and last volumes would sell much better than the second one, for instance. There's little worse than starting a series, only to realize you can't finish it!

If I am really interested in reading a series, I sometimes get a few books in the series and then read them in order back to back. But, all-in-all I like a book that has a beginning and an ending. But, what am I talking about, my current read is a book in a series, however, each year or six months a new one is released in the series. And each book is a stand alone book as well.

Why in the world would you publish a series in any translation out of order? Now I understand some books have a reading order and a chronological order (Narnia series) but it does not sound like that is the case with these.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
