That’s right, the new edition coming out this year will be half as long and characters who were previously killed will live and others that lived will die. Why?
Now, after that last post ranting on the state of new books, I have to say I am most excited about Michael Chabon’s 2007 release! It’s titled The Yiddish Policeman’s Union and is set to hit bookshelves on May 1st. Being a cover-guy, I usually wait until Amazon has covers posted before linking. But I feel as if I need some balance after that last post.
Chabon’s new story has and “alternate reality” twist to it as it takes place in Israel which is in Alaska…
Apparently, this handful of debut authors will promote the books together. Sort of a “must read list” for mystery buffs next year. The site isn’t at 100% yet, but their blog has been up and running for a few months. (via Crime Fiction Dossier)
