Oddly, I've seen The Final Reflection second-hand several times, but the only copy of HMFJTP? I've seen was the one I read in the Merrill Collection.

I think Paramount wants to pretend that one never happened.

I checked the publisher catalogue. Still available as e-book.

Star-Trek as genre-aware musical comedy? as arguably prematurely anti-capitalist musical? as absolutely one hundred percent pure-quill organic free-range slapstick? As a narrative where the plantside plucky insurgents arguably win outright?

I can see how they'd want to avoid that one gaining wide currency. Someone might expect them to do it, and it'd be something of a challenge.
