This one of the Niven novels where they authors inserted a lot of the fans from the LASFS as characters. They also did that in Footfall and one or two others.

Were'nt we just making fun of KJA for doing that?
I deleted some of your posts because they were derailing the topic and not focusing on the issues asked, and instead going after the authors or their material. That's why. ~ BM

Ayup. I also thought this one pandered quite a bit too.

I find it utterly ridiculous, whether a decent writer uses fans names or when The Hack does.

At least you're guaranteed to sell books to the people that are in it, huh?
They were destroyed because they lied pretentiously. Have no fear that my wrath
will fall upon you because of your innocent mistakes.
