Because we like round numbers, we've decided to add a tenth year to the Plutarch cycle. It isn't scheduled on the website yet, and the studies aren't ready: this is just a heads-up. The three new studies (Phocion, Camillus, and Dion) will appear for the year 2024-2025, and the rest will move on by one year.
If Dion seems familiar, yes, he used to be in the cycle, and we're bringing him back with updates. The others are new ones for AO.
Also, watch for all the older existing studies (Pericles etc.) to appear in overhauled format by the end of the year. I'm trying to close the gap there.

I don't see how anything you bought would be affected.
The new studies mentioned will not have their turn in the cycle for a couple of years.
The older studies being revised are those which have not yet appeared in book format. There are only a few of those left to do.
Does that help?

Is it better to go with whatever is scheduled for that year or start in Volume 1? My type A personality is having a hard time jumping into the middle of a series... (Added context: I have a Y5 & a youngish Y4 and we are working through Publicola during Term 1 this year. I'm looking for what to do after that.)

Really, start anywhere you want. The Lives aren't scheduled in chronological order.
