look at what just popped up in my Amazon.com recommendations:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1416511938/ref=pd_ys_ir_
b_8/104-5031406-6583929?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance
it appears as though some novels based on the movie might be released some time next year, à la Buffy and Angel.
if this listing is acurate, and it is what I think it is, the first one, called "Mirror Image" will be released July 1st next year. it is written by Keith R. A. DeCandido, same guy who did the Serenity novelisation.
I'm not sure if I like this. the books of this type that I have read suck potatoes. most of the time they're like bad fanfiction. maybe Keith will do a good job, I don't know, but it worries me.
EDIT:

PS, sorry, I'd take this post out of the news items, but I don't even know how it got there in the first place...

Trust me, Keith will more than do it justice. I've read a snippet of the Serenity novel, and it rocks. It'll be good, trust me.

Of course, if you're being sarcastic then I personally think it's a great title! Seriously, you gotta admit that the group probably has a rep for being "bad guys"...

Can we take this out of the new item area?

I think this should effectively squash this rumor.

I responded to Krad's post linking him to Amazon.com's listing so that he can do something about this as it seems he is unaware of this. Hopefully he can get this straighten out.

It is very odd... but if Keith himself says it's not real, I'm gonna have to go ahead and believe him. I have no doubt spinoff books will come, and that a number of them will be written by him... but this one is some kind of glitch in Amazon's database. I'd let it go. Good catch though. (c:
