Always beware of authors who put out a ton of books in a short period of time. Chances are that the books were rushed to market and as a result, were sloppily written. Not just with non-fiction authors but with fiction writers as well.

John Grisham, Stephen King and Tom Clancy fall into this category as well as WEB Griffin, Stephen Ambrose and James Michener.

All are talented writers but the pressure to get a bunch of books to market definitely diluted the quality of what they were putting out.

What you say is true. I’ve always enjoyed the fictionalized biographies/novels by Irving Stone ... they are what they are.
