Is Ligotti's fiction good? Pic related are the first two

Ligotti's short fiction is wonderful. His novellas and nonfiction are not very good.

Some writers excel at one form and fail at the others. My Work Is Not Yet Done meanders and fizzles out. He probably deserved to lose his publishing job because of it.

Dunno, it starts slow but the middle and end are great

Penguin recently released Songs and Grimscribe in one volume. I suggest trying that next.

Already have. I have everything he's done except The Agonising Ressurection of Victor Frankenstein and the spectral link

Nihilism isn't an excuse for mediocre pacing and plot.
