New Michael Crichton Novel Slated for November Release?

We may soon receive official word that a new novel by Michael Crichton will be published on November 22, 2011. (This would be the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, which was when Pirate Latitudes was released in 2009.)

Harper Collins, the publisher of Crichton’s novels Prey, State of Fear, Next, and Pirate Latitudes, has listed Untitled Crichton Novel in their catalog. These are also listings for audio, large print, and digital editions.

Very recently, an official Facebook page appeared for Michael Crichton. A friend notified me of it and said, “I wonder what's up. Gearing up for a new promotion?”

I’m wondering as well. And I’m also wondering if this is the novel Crichton left unfinished at his death, or is another work that, like Pirate Latitudes, was found on his computer.

More on this soon.

Michael Crichton on Facebook

There is now an Official Michael Crichton Page on Facebook. Prior to that, there was another Michael Crichton page that appeared to be the official page. It was created in April 2008. There used to be a discussion board but that has been removed.

In addition, there is a page that tracks Michael Crichton-related posts on Facebook. It seems to be associated with Wikipedia.

The new official page contains film clips, quotes, and a discussion board. Check it out!
