The link is the November monthly bundle. SoV and several other books are 1/2 on 8/15 and 1/2 on 11/2. It does nothing to suggest whether or not a complete earc will be available and when.

Nit, that's not the "first half of earc".

It's the first half of the final version.

The "first half" thingy had me wondering... how big is this book?

According to amazon, ART and SoF had 650 and 600 pages. SoV is listed as having 800 pages, so a good bit bigger. Yay. ^__^

It might be the "first half of earc".

See the Bean Ebooks FAQ for details: http://www.baen.com/t-faq
Monthly Baen Bundles

I purchased a "Forthcoming," "Half," or "Three-Quarters" version of an Ebook and it's full of mistakes!

Most likely, we only have the eARC text available at this time. The "non-ARC" version is not available to us until roughly a month before publication date. Until we get the final text (then converted and uploaded), we use the text from the ARC for the Sample chapters and Baen Ebook Monthly Bundle quarters.

The date for that ebook is Nov. 2, 2016 while the publication date is Nov. 1, 2016. eARCs are released before the publication date, not after.
