I've always loved that cover, and actually just re-read that particular copy of THE BOOK OF SKULLS just a few weeks ago. Oh, and I too am really looking...

Hello Mr. Silverberg. Whenever someone spams, I ban them from the group. But this does not really help, since the way these people work is to sign up for a new...
Hi welshgriffin. (I got rid of the spam messages. As I mentioned, I immediately banned the members but inadvertantly left the yicky spam. My apologies. I also ...
Hey all. I went into our Links section and cleaned it up. I removed the spam and any links which were irrelevant for a Silverberg group. For some reason, all...
Proxier, follow the Subterranean Press link to pre-order the book. You have to prepay as well, but not a bad idea considering there's only going to be 1026...
Apparently it's going to be 1500 copies, Welshman. At any rate I just got finished with the dreary job of signing 1700 limitation pages, and they say "Number...
Subterranean will not be doing any regular unsigned copies, but some time this fall iBooks will be reprinting it in trade paperback format. Since trade pbs...
One more bit of news: the Paramount film version of BOOK OF SKULLS has moved another millimeter closer to reality. That is, a contractual snarl dating to the...

Good luck... with SO many of the Legends of Sci-Fi still alive and the culture SO thirsty for quality, challenging stories to challenge our education and help...
I'm reading this 1957 novel only at breakfast because I want to drag it out. In my humble opinion this is full-throttle Silverberg - an excellent tale of...
RS has been nominated for a 2003 Sidewise Award, which recognizes the best works in alternate history. The nominated story is "The Reign of Terror" from the...
I have nearly all of the stories in Phases of the Moon, but I've ordered it anyway for the introductions. I'm impressed not only by how many favorite stories...
Well, folks, we got spammed again, so I have changed our group to be "moderated", which means all posted messages need to be approved before they show up in...
The film of NIGHTFALL was from the Asimov story, not from our book. My story "Amanda and the Alien" was filmed four or five years ago, the Asimov-Silverberg...
No tinkering was done with "Phases." Stories are as I originally wrote them. I held the size of the book down to 500 pages or so because I didn't want the...
If I may make a suggestion: All you really have to do is put NEW MEMBERS on moderated status, until they've proven they're not spambots (spelled backwards:...

Science Fiction Weekly just published a new interview with Silverberg. It's a very interesting read: http://www.scifi.com/sfw/issue375/interview.html...
I've never read LORD OF THE RINGS, all right, but not because I couldn't stomach Sauron. I bought the books when they first came out around 1955, started the...
Thank you for posting this. It's a lovely review by a writer whose intelligence I much admire. I never check out Scifi.com, so I never would have seen this...
The Demolished Man (1953), by Alfred Bester, is a good novel that I think most Silverberg fans would enjoy. I read it for the first time just a week ago, even...
