None that I've read. I can't think of an example where I've only liked the first books.

But I've seen this happening with TV shows, where they drag the story around and the last seasons make you hope for cancellation, but the writers for those shows have the same amount of time to write the script for each season. So the obvious explanation is not the time but the fact that they are trying to milk an already dead cow.
