Don't you think that the media attention and their own sales would hint of a
growing Klingon market? Oh well, at least writing them will get them on the
ball.

Well, I have the paperback, haven't finished it yet (have too many other
books to complete first :) ), but I am somewhat disgusted at the way they
treat the Klingon language (bad spelling, illegitimate casing (ex. dRacLa is
a character's name). It's depressing that a novel about Klingons is so
inaccurate in speaking/writing the Klingon language.
