One aspect of a multi-book series I don't like is realizing that whatever unbelievable situation the main character finds himself or herself in, he or she always escapes because you know there is another book coming.
An exception to that rule seems to be George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire", as he's been pretty liberal with killing off main characters. However, Martin taking forever to finish the series is one reason why I don't like to read incomplete series. I do worry he is going to die before he ever finishes books six and seven.
