I'd say an author is just like any other artist in that no one is likely to see exactly the same thing in any one piece of their work. For example I never could get the hang of Kurt Vonnegut's "Cat's Cradle" but I'm sure there are those who have loved it. I enjoy Ray Bradbury and Isaac Asimov but I'm sure that there are those who don't care for their works too. It's all very personalized from one person to another as to who is a great author and who isn't.
