Worse, the first half of the first installment stops and does not continue action until the third volume. Worst, in Spanish they are releasing 8 - 9 separate volumes, and pricing them.
Ah, lets add:
Ursula's Terramar
Adams's Guide
Terramar does not claim to be a trilogy, but the Guide does.
Uplift it currently a bitrilogy, sort of U(2)xU(3) as they commute well.
Newton, Leibniz, Hooke, PIRATES!
What is there not to like?
Plus it tells you where the best spot to eliminate tiresome ideologues in Trinity's Great Yard is... so useful too.
I would have gone with the First Uplift Trilogy, but as Matt noted, it is incomplete.
Despite my input, I can't insist on the Second Uplift Trilogy.
I would be sympathetic to LeGuin's Earthsea trilogy, were it not for the fact that there are four books. Although I am also sympathetic to the notion that the fourth book does not actually exist and is merely the figment of my deranged imagination.
