J. D. Robb (J. A. Jance ...) is sorta the same, but enough different that I keep coming back (after a break) for another installment. Mysteries seem to survive my burnout threshold better than others.
I think this is because there is always a new case. So, even though you have the same main characters, there is a very different scenario going on (or should be). However, I find that I have to give myself a break every 3 books and it doesn't matter what mystery/crime series I'm reading.

I also thought the Pern series was good read right through. For Shannara, each trilogy can be taken by itself, so I think best separated by other stuff. Dresden Files really picked up at book 3 and while I think one of the books was a bit of a drag, it's a good read through.
