I have the Robotech books in storage. McKinney did a pretty good job of serializing the cartoon series, harmonizing the three parts and then wrote few couple more to neatly tie everything together.
If one is not familiar with the cartoon series, Robotech was an early attempt by Harmony Gold to bring anime into America; taking a well-known series from Japan (initially, this was the original Macross), and rescripting and voicing with American actors. They then took two unrelated animes for the second and third seasons, and loosely tied them together. through a unifying theme.
As I said, McKinney did well bringing the three series together and the books are good, fast reads; I'd classify it as juvenile science fiction. The only down-side is that there are like 21 books.
