I was on Amazon today looking at thrillers and came across something very odd. The late Michael Crichton is releasing a book in three months! It's a miracle! He is so talented that God has raised from from the dead like Lazarus and directed him to started writing again, thus he is gracing us with another wonderful $30.00 thriller soon to be available in hardcover, paperback, or Kindle. He died in 2008; how is this possible? When I read the description, it said nothing about it being ghostwritten or being previously published under another name. Nor did it say his wife or child found the manuscript and decided to publish it. I'm mystified

Looks like he had more writings that were never published. His widow released it.

Why dies Jimi Hendrix keep 'releasing' albums?

Why did Mark Twain 'put out' his autobiography in the 21st century?

This really isn't that unusual.

Sounds like a plot for a Michael Crichton book!
