How do y’all feel about continuing a series after an author dies? To me, I think one last book can be written to end it, but the series should rest with the author, just my thoughts though. I’m in the middle of a series right now and some random lady is “finishing” it, but she has written like 7 books that show no end. I’m not mad, but I just want to feel the satisfaction of completing a series and having the whole collection.

    Totally up to the literary estate, if they want to see their relative’s work keep going then whose to say they’re wrong. Sometimes it doesn’t work but at the end of the day posthumous works have no bearing on the original texts so it’s all good. Every year there’s a bunch of Sherlock Holmes or Dracula books but it doesn’t affect the quality or reception of the original works.
