You're kidding, right?   Blish's "Trek adaptations" were among his last
published works and were easily among his worst.  He once said that he did
them in order to attract more readers (Trekkies) to his other works.
Sadly, this did not happen.  And I guess you're proof of his failure in
that regard.
