   It was my understanding that the infamous dekology was written *before*
   he died, and was merely released post-humously... Lotsa people do that,
   eh? H. Beam Piper, Heinline, etc.  Did anyone ever say otherwise?

while i have not read the dekology myself... i have heard that the
books are not written in the same style as you proceed.  the first
books are definitely hubbard's style...  the middle books go down
hill, and the final books are in a different style which is better
than the middle books, but quite different from the first books.

hubbard has written quite a number of works by which one can judge
style.  and style is not something that would drastically change in
one's later years.  not to mention style is something that never
changes drastically.
