Can vouch for each.
Gangs of London is a bit derivative, but I doubt many will mind. A little Scorsese [actually more Departed than GoNY], a little GoT, a little Bodyguard [the 2018 series, not the Whitney Houston movie], and a good bit RAID and RAID Redemption. Lots of plotting and getting to 'safe houses' followed by assaults on said safe houses.
CoaH is just plain 80s Boston crime and punishment hardball. The strength is in the writing and narrative pacing.
