Tastes differ. I read the first Discworld book and probably will never read any other. Just didn't enjoy it.
Ditto for Shannara, Thomas Covenant and Harry Potter. Not my cup of tea, really.
I did read all of Wheel of Time. While not all books were equally good, I liked them enough to finish the series. Yes, it had many flaws and was certainly not a five-star read, but somehow I never got bored with it. There are other series I've read in their entirety, as well.
And then there are series/serials I've enjoyed up to a point, but not read further from that point. Miles Vorkosigan (the last book for me was A Civil Campaign) and ASOIAF (the first three books), for example.
