Heh. Ford's "The Final Reflection" is one of my favorite Trek novels. "How Much For Just the Planet" is one I couldn't get through at all.

I'm with you on "The Final Reflection". I've managed to get through "How Much", obviously, but I don't like it nearly as much as some people do; I hadn't intended to re-read it at all, just check on a couple of details, but I found myself getting sucked in.
