Do you think it's overrated or perfectly rated?

I've heard it said once that it's prose is awful. Is it poorly written? Atleast, does it have a good story?

First trilogy was a nice read. After that? It felt that the author was struggling to find how to continue the story after their original plan ended.

I did like that it's a series where plot armor wasn't always successful. More authors who write worlds with danger need to be willing to kill some characters because that's how the universe really is.
