However, if their writing style does not appeal, or they change their writing style partway through then I am not likely to return to them as they are not likely to alter from any of that.

That being said, one of my favorite series of all time is Six of Crows. However, I don't like the Grisha trilogy also by Leigh Bardugo (I know, I read the two series out of order). So there are times where I might give an author another chance, just in case.

This happened to me with Dennis Lehane (awesome book was "The Given Day") and to a lesser extent with Anthony Doerr (awesome book was "All the Light we Cannot See")

If the second book's storyline is also lacking then I will be done and not read anything else from that Author again.
