I read "How Much for Just the Planet" when it came out and loved it.
Klingons and Kirk playing golf was just so good.

I wish William December Starr still posted here. I've never read HMFJTP but I did enjoy him airing his dislike for it. I suspect some posters praised it just to get a rise out of him.

Tor won't be re-publishing that, or _The Final Reflection_, because
the rights to those weren't owned by the estate. Good as they are,
the other books (from _Growing Up Weightless_ to _The Dragon Waiting_)
are so much better.
