Dull!

Slightly (and I do mean slightly) better than average genre writer.

An outstanding body of work which includes two of the best books ever written: The Book of Skulls and Dying Inside. Those two books, along with a large body of work that is always interesting to read are why I consider him a great author. If you see a book with Silverberg's name on it, you know you are in for a good read. His short stories are superb, one of the best short story writers ever. Wonderful charecterizations abound in his stories, you really get to know the people the story is about.

He is my all-time favorite author.
