Oh....some parts are hilarious and even endearing in a comedic sort of way, it's just that when that's the norm for every page, it gets old very very fast.
David's humor can work very well in a Trek novel when used to punctuate very tense and dramatic novels (Imzadi was a great early one he wrote) but lately his novels are severly lacking in antagonist and plot, and that just leaves the slapstick humor.
Mabye he just needs a break from writing or something.

Thanks, everyone, for all the information. I've already gotten through "The Battle of Betazed," although the rest will have to wait until they show up at the used bookstore...
