Darn! Another one that I already have, since I've been picking them up in series order with my Kobo points. Still, I think I may now pause, and wait and see if some of the ones I still need go on sale in the not-too-distant future. Maybe Felony & Mayhem is going to start having more reasonable sale prices on some of their titles - that would be nice! And as far as still liking the series a second time through, I have, with just the same couple of titles that I wasn't super-fond of in the DTB days, I'm still not super-fond of now

.
As far as hoping all of a series gets issued in e-book - I hear you! I am hugely fond of Marvin Albert's long-out-of-print Stone Angel series, whose rights were eventually picked up by Wildside Press. Wildside Press put out the first seven of nine fairly promptly between mid-2015 and early 2017, and then went silent on the last two. I e-mailed Wildside a few times (also begging), and John Betancourt there always responded politely, and said they were still coming. But it took until 2019 for the eighth one to come out, and I still have my fingers crossed for the ninth and last one. I've actually been thinking about volunteering to help with production, or proof-reading, or anything else that would be helpful

The F&M site just shows it as coming soon but it also shows #17 as coming soon and it's been out for a few weeks now.
I hope I still like them. I've put off rereading until I get them all, which will hopefully be in my lifetime. There's only #19 left and it isn't showing anywhere yet. They started off so well, the first dozen in 2018, then just four in 2019, and presumably just two this year (understandably). I remember when I was buying the Henry Gamadge books by Elizabeth Daly the same thing happened -- a whole bunch the first year and then three more years for the last few. I was reduced to begging for the last one and she actually let me buy it a bit early.
