• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

I wished I enjoy Ellison as much as others.  His prodigious volume of work results in hits and misses and unfortunately a curated collection of this still suffers from too many misses.  His crafting of sentences ranges from workman like to exceptional. His plotting and characterization does as well.  A few stories will stick around in my head forever.  It could be to achieve the heights one must suffer the variance.
