(The fifth book, Victory Conditions, was one that could easily be considered the end of the series, but also left just enough detritus around that one can see where it could be resurrected. I'm looking forward to that.)

Glad to hear that the series is being revived. I enjoyed these enough for a full re-read several years ago.

Ah, I do this when I'm thrashing around trying to get into my next read -- though most of the abandoning is just temporary. It's a sense of "not now" rather than "never".
