Not Silverberg at his best

The story was okay until I saw that it was in fact just a gag. Silverberg is better than trick fiction and this short does not do just to his skill at developing worlds and characters.

Hunters in the Forest (unabridged)

Robert Silverberg's masterly short piece. Leading the reader / listener down what appears a predictable path, only to end with the totally unpredictable. A great imagination.
