While I participated in the poll, I think my real answer is that sometimes I loose interest in a series. I read quite a few books by Lindsey Davis set in ancient Rome and enjoyed them all but reached a point where I just didn't want to continue. Yes, I am compelled by my own OCD to read a series in order but as I've aged, I have been able to make a decision to stop a series.
An earlier post addressed the issue of an author and cited Tom Clancy. I guess I feel the same way about James Patterson. My wife and I read a number of books by him and both reached the conclusion that we were no longer interested in James Patterson Inc. Of course, he continues to be wonderfully successful despite our decision.
