My thing with Star Trek novels is...it can ALL be canon.

ST is all about alternate timelines/dimensions etc, so why can't it all be considered canon?

Yeah, they seem more interested in cheating customers than enslaving them.

I'm not so sure about that.

While I've no doubt that there's a routine amount of less-than-honorable ocnduct among Ferengi, it would seem that it's not in their best interest to flat-out cheat all the time.

Because if they do that, word will get out, and they'll lose customers - something no Ferengi wants.

The secret is to cheat the customer, without them realizing they've been cheated.
