Nightrunner - yes or no?

Anyone read any of the Nightrunner books? Are they good re plot, world building, characterisation, or is it just hype?

ETA: Thanks for your help. Forgot to say I wanted something for my Kindle whilst on holiday. I'm going to buy Ginn Hale's Lord of the White Hell books for my hols.

I read the first three, and, well, they were okay. I would +1 fran_fic's review two comments up, that other than the m/m pairing there is no difference from verrry standard fantasy. As fantasy reader, I'm missing some kind of spark, some kind of original idea. There just isn't. The m/m is okay, I mean, it has some nice tropes/kinks in it that someone who reads origslash will recognize and maybe like. But other than that, it's bland as well.
I heard the fourth book is pretty controversial in some aspects, but I don't remember what exactly.

Thanks for letting me know. I think I need to repost that I'm looking a good author for my Kindle. *ponders*
