Hay redcard, A lot of times this happends in a bundle so I would recommend anytime you see a bundle that you are interested in look up the books that comprise the bundle in fantasticfiction.co.uk and baencd.thefifthimperium.com. The first is a web site that talks about books series indexed by authors you can use that listing to understand if the books that you are looking at are at the start of a series or in the middle or at the end of the series. The fifth imperium is a place to download what is called an iso file, which is all of the books in that series that you are considering in one big file. You will need software such as 7 zip to take the file appart so that you can read the individual books. First check with the fifth imperium to see if you can get hte books for nothing then with fantastic fiction to see where the books that you are looking at are in the series.
To answer your second question no these bundles are not sold by the year they are sold one by one. Book bundles are a great way to become familiar with a cross section of authors that you would normally not come across. As for me I discovered these bundles some time ago and I have used them to get a chance to encounter a lot of great authors that I would not have otherwise come across such as John Dalmas and Mercedes Lackey. John Dalmas is a great writer and one nees to be careful about Mercedes Lackey sometimes shes great and sometimes shes just so so. and sometimes I can't seem to get started on her books. David Weber is also another great author, I would recommend that you go to the Baen free library and download a copy of his book On Balskic station, I hope I spelled that right.
