We all seem to agree on needing at least TKD and KGT. Two books. At double
the cost that's around $50 (US). Yes, that isn't exactly pocket change, but
it's a one-time cost. But also remember, you're not merely learning a language
of a fiction race. I learned more english while studying klingon than I did in
all of high-school. I also learned about the real world which I live in. This
is an international mail-list. I could write a whole essay about what I have
learned here compared to what I would have learned if I lounged around at the
local bar with a beer, memorizing who played first-base.
I think it's worth what I paid.
