What I remember was it just hit me as more "outline" than "finished product". It's like they published the stuff I would think you would find in inquiry letters. Interesting ideas but just not fleshed out with dialog or scenes if you know what I mean. The few books I bought from Silver Publishing had better sales blurbs than writing.

Silver Publishing was on my Do Not Buy list because it published RPF fan fiction with the names changed, and per the author (before she was exiled from that comm) her editor there knew it was RPF and encouraged her to do so. Beyond that, the editing and pricing were...less than impressive, but that doesn't seem to be all that important when it comes to keeping epublishers afloat. Huh.
