Chris
by profiling, Star Trek appeals more to the intellectual as the series deals with serious issues. star wars on the other hand appeals to the quake and wolfentein types as its all shoot and kill action.

The books are quite good really...do consider them.
as for the gundam book, I bought it on impulse in HK years back but realise I do not know how to appreciate it...sigh..
