Re: OT: Read a book!
IMHO Hubbard was just too caught up in the whole series thing. A good sci-fi series is one that develops over time, like Foundation which was originally never intended to be more then one book if I remember corectly. The invasion Earth series might have even made a really good trilogy, but forcing ten books out of it from the begining was a huge mistake. There just wasn't that much idea in the idea.
I like Turtledove as well. Guns of the South was a really good story if you are into the alternate history stuff like I am.
