Thought of something else:
Robotech #1-18 by Jack McKinney
If you are a fan of the series/movies, and have never read/heard of these snatch up a set and read away. #1-#6 detail the lives and adventures of the crew of the SDF-1, before, during, and shortly after their traverse to Pluto and the subsequent journey home which is shortly thereafter razed by the Zentraedi(I pronounce it Zen-Tree-Dee, there is no way, phonetically, that it could be Zen-Tra-dee, or Zen-tr-a-edi, or anything else other that Zen-Tree-Dee. Though, I suppose a case could be made for Zen-Tray-Dee...)
#7-#12 Detail the life and adventure of Dana Sterling and friends in the 15th ATACs as they and the rest of the Army of the Southern Cross attempt to fend off the advances of far superior Tirolian(they are from the planet Tirol, which is actually a moon of the giant Fantoma)Robotech Masters and their clone army as they(the Masters) attempt to reclaim the Protoculture Matrix which is buried in the still radioactive husk of the destroyed SDF-1.
13-17 tell the tale of the REF(Rick Hunter and Co) as they travel to Tirol-space to try and make peace with the Tirolian Robotech Elders, who are the evil, wizened, protoculture addicted rulers of Tirol and once an vast empire controlled by their mind-controlled Zentraedi slave army. Instead they find a war in progress and are attacked by the insectoid Invid.
18 ties everything up fairly effectively and leaves no dangling plot holes save how Zor escapes the pocket reality that Haydon set up to observe Minmei and Rem(who is a clone of Zor and his father at the same time)
There are a couple of books, 19-2x that detail the "missing" 15 years that are between book 6 and book 7.
This is by far the most entertaining version of Robotech I have ever partaken of.
