I do have several examples of books in my library with a single author on the cover, even though they are collaborations. Some of the books state this explicitly in the acknowledgements, but some might merely give "thanks" to the collaborator. |

A number of series I was reading had the last books finished by someone (not on cover), when the Author became too ill (or dead).

And then there are not authors continuing a series when the author has passed on. Hercule Piorot, Spencer, Jason Bounre, and Jack Ryan are some series that come to mind. Last edited by JSWolf; Yesterday at 01:50 PM. |

Last month I read the new release "Eruption" by Michael Crichton & James Patterson.
It was nothing like a Michael Crichton book. It was shallow, unbelievable, and it read more like one of Matthew Reilly's childrens books. For me it was a waste of money. I have enjoyed the James Patterson books written by Andrew Gross. He seems like quite a competent writer. |
