Nowadays I don't really have any authors or book series like this. As I kid I used to get really excited for a new Series of Unfortunate Events or Alex Rider book. For a while I kept my eye on Adrian Tchaikovsky, but lately I've found some of his novels to be hit or miss.

The only book release I'm currently looking forward to is Brigands & Breadknives in the Legends & Lattes series by Travis Baldree. The other two books have been cosy and wholesome, and it's become a little tradition of mine to read these books around Christmas.

I read The Way of Kings earlier this year and loved it, but given the size and quantity of these books I doubt I'm going to be able to get on top on that series or any of his others in time for his latest releases xD

Waiting for series by other authors to complete makes a lot of sense. It's super frustrating following an author only for their quality to drop near the end.

His series are usually 3-4 books of varying length, often with one-offs in between installments. Stormlight, for example, is done. There will likely be a sequel series in 5-10 years, which gives plenty of time to catch up.
