I think KJA is best when he's doing ideas that are his own, not working in an established setting like Dune or Star Wars (although I haven't read any of his X-Files stuff, maybe they're good). But I really liked his Captain Nemo, The Martian War, and War of the Worlds: Global Dispatches.

Don't read his X-Files stuff.
I've read two of his X-Files books when I was 12. Even at that age I found it was just not interesting. His style was boring, and he just cannot bring any tension or any form of chemistry in his stories.
But having bought Road To Dune, I figured I'd give the short stories like Whipping Mech and Dune World a chance. It has only reaffirmed that the man should have never touched the story of which I am such an obvious fangeek with his filthy tainted fingers-o'-suck.
