He is really, really good.

Of course, it hinges on your genre preferences.
For SF he is "merely" good to great, for fantasy he ranges from great to historically significant. Not Tolkien but not far behind.

Both of his biggest projects are in development for video.

LORD OF LIGHT:

CHRONICLES OF AMBER:

Not fly by night outfits but his immagination isn't easy to adept.

Only LENSMEN would be harder to get right.

The project of his that screams to be adapted, though, is JACK OF SHADOWS.
it is both great and adaptable and can be made into a stunning streaming series. It could incorporate the prequels as flashbacks.
