Cool.
But I thought that both the movie and novel were written simultaneously https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Sp...ey_(novel)
Not an issue, I think. The novelization of the screen play could have gone apace. The sooner they got it on the book store shelves the quicker they would make a buck or two off it.
Aside: One of my lit profs at Purdue said that to really capture the essence of the movie the book would have to be 1,800 pages, most of them blank.
