See, I like a lot of the<em>Battletech</em>novels, as long as you take the caveat that you're reading franchise fiction with its miserably low standards. Personally, I think that BT has some of the best Tabeletop Gaming fiction out there... which is a loaded statement, I admit.<br/><br/>However, it's very mixed bag. There are plenty of good books... and then there are ones like<em>Main Event, Far Country, Star Lord</em>and<em>Dire Red Thong</em>which are not fit for human consumption
