Robert Silverberg is one of the most decorated science fiction writers who ever lived — multiple Hugo Awards, multiple Nebula Awards, SFWA Grand Master, Hall of Fame inductee — and most readers today have never heard of him. His 1960s and 70s work, including Dying Inside, Downward to the Earth, and The World Inside, pushed the genre toward genuine literary ambition and influenced writers you absolutely know. He published his first professional story as a teenager, retired in 1975, then came back with Lord Valentine’s Castle and the entire Majipoor universe. In this Forgotten Legends episode I break down why Silverberg matters, which books to read first, and what his career tells you about how science fiction abandoned its own history.
