I too read something a while back that indicated that #13 would be the final book of the series and I also noticed the phrase "buildup to the finale". It's a mystery to me as to which is the truth.
Given that the phrase comes from someone who's read the book, I'd go with that. It's more recent and is based on the books as written, as opposed to older and based on a plan.

From Kim Harrison's Facebook page: "What are you doing after Labor Day? Seriously. Title and release day for last Hollows book is The Witch With No Name, September 9th. Hurray!"

Since she's the author, I'll go with that.

I really hope this doesn't turn out to be one of those "what do you MEAN you stopped THERE" endings. Maybe the reviewers quoted got incomplete books or something...

Let's hope! She has already extended the series twice. First,
Spoiler:
Kisten was supposed to be her Happily Ever After and he was killed off to provide more room in the plotline
and then the Undead Pool was inserted before the series finale.

I was thinking more along the lines of D.D. Barant's "Bloodhound Files" series, where the sixth book closes some plotlines, opens a couple of others, and ends in a way that left me dying to see what came next...only to find out it was the end of the series. I was not happy...

I was thinking about whether I have read any series that end in a sort of cliffhanger...oh, yes, Richelle Mead's Dark Swan series. I was desperately swiping my ereader, certain that there were more pages somewhere.

Anyone else have any?

I started Small Favor today and we have a rare April blizzard. Coincidence? Harry doesn't believe in them.
