Yeah, the history of Ronnie's bestsellers is more interesting than the books themselves.

I did actually read all of these, many years ago, and while yes, they are terrible, there was some amusement to be had.

So you're the one who finished Mission Earth! I'm glad to see you've gotten past your bout of insanity.
I don't doubt that mixed in to ten volumes of crap there are nuggets of enjoyment. Maybe a good editor could have whittled it down to a single good book.
My limited experience with L. Ron convinces me he was a quantity over quality guy. Like he put out his first draft and moved on to something new rather than polishing what he did. That gives him a large body of work, but there's not a lot worth reading. I'd bet if not for the cult, his work would be OOP and forgotten.
