Joan D. Vinge's Snow Queen (Books #1,#2 of 4 missing)
Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun (Book #2 of 4 missing)
C. J. Cherryh's Foriegner (Books #4,#5,#6 of 15 missing)
I'm with you on that. For some series, the rights of various books belong to different entities, or are unclear, for others, the publishers just don't seem to care.
