Can Andrew Myers anyone answer these questions concerning the SGCB reprint of Thomas Manton's works:
When are these coming out again? Are they worth getting?

I talked to Machael Gaydosh from Solid Ground, and he said that, after long delay (my name has been on the list for a reservation for over two years!), all obstacles have been removed, and that he expects them to be available in April.
The volumes are all sermons. And they are priceless. Ryle recommended him above all other Puritans.

I've not spoken with Mike Gaydosh about his plans, but the set is worth its weight in gold.
All 22 volumes are, as someone else has noted, nothing but sermons. Manton was well versed in the early church fathers and other writers in the history of the church. His 176 sermons on Psalm 119 (vols 6-9) are very good. He preached through James (vol 4), Jude (vol 5), Hebrews 11 (vols. 13-15), Romans 6 & 8 (vols 11-12), John 17 (vols 10-11), Ephesians 5:1-27 (Vol 19), and Isaiah 53 (vol 3) for some examples of consecutive series.

Banner of Truth has the first three volumes, the Hebrews 11 series, James and Jude, and Psalm 119, each available on its own.

How much of Manton's works deal with:
1) The kingship of Christ
2) The Civil Magistrate
3) God's providential judgments?

You should probably search the online copy to which Andrew linked. The works themselves are all sermons, and they do not have all that descriptive a title. "the one million, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, five hundred and seventy third sermon on Psalm 119" is not a helpful description of what Manton was actually saying.
