Honestly, in my opinion, only the first 8 are any good. They get to full of scripture after that. I mean that has its time in place, but if I wanted to read the Bible, I would open the actual book and not a work of fiction.

So does it get preachy then after the 8th book? Are the authors trying to relate the plot and characters to scripture or are they disguising a sermon?

I think they use scripture in the book to show that it is a realistic account of the end times and not just a story. As the story gets more intense, they keep putting verses in there to show "Yes, this is really how it's supposed to go; we're being fictitious without being blasphemous." That's what it looked like to me.
