Collected Stories of Robert Silverberg: Volume 1 Secret Sharers, by Robert Silverberg

 
Well I finally decided to stop adding these one story at a time and just read the entire collection and make a post about it.  First off, I loved this collection.  Silverberg's stories were fantastic (ha!), and the intros to each story were very fun.  I read every single story except the last one.  I'm sure one day I'll regret that and find out that "Enter a Solider.  Later:  Enter Another" is by far the greatest short story/novella ever written.  But much as I loved this book, 8 days of reading the same author is though going.  So when I started the final story and it didn't grab me in the first few pages, I put it down and decided I was done.  So back to the library with this book, and fond memories of some really great stories. 
 
I even took the volume with me to Vail for a long weekend, it made for great reading in Colorado mountains.  Really can't believe I waited this long to read Silverberg.
