The important thing is that an author has a plan, knows where he is going and when and how to end it.
If he just keeps writing books until "I've gotta end this stupid thing already", well, dragging a series past its sell-by date is never a good idea.
Jim has a goal in mind -- I am confident he will do a good job.
