I think that why it bothered me in the Harry Potter books is that in the first book she made a big effort to present the Voldemort part as a big overarching plot element for the series. At least that's how it came across to me. I've also read plenty of fantasy series where things were wrapped up at the end of a book and I didn't feel cheated when I read subsequent books.
