It is expected to end at Vol. 12.

He says he's had the end-battle done since the very
beginning; like it's the first part that he wrote.
Everything else is just getting there. I have to 
admit that everytime the gang rides into a new city
and he describes and describes the city I revert to
my speed reading techniques and just sort of pass
over that stuff. If you want insufferable detail 
(which obviously you don't, heh) try Jules Verne or
Melville. Yeesh!
