Hello all, I have just finished reading the latest Harry Bosch novel City of
Bones by Michael Connelly. I am going to try to ask a question without
spoiling the ending for all fans of Connelly's great LAPD detective.

Is this it? Is this the end of Harry Bosch, detective? Has anyone heard or
read an interview that Connelly plans to retire Harry? Or, his Harry going
to go freelance, and we will get "Harry Bosch P.I." in the next book? I was
so upset at what appears to possibly be the end of my absolute favorite LAPD
detective series that I had to call three other Librarians (none of whom had
read the book yet) for consolation.

If anyone has any news on if there will ever be another Harry Bosch book,
please e-mail me. I am grieving, (and no, he doesn't die in the end).

Hillary,

Don't despair! This is from an interview on beatrice.com:

"By the end of City of Bones, you've put Harry Bosch in a position that
gives you a lot of options for what happens to him next.

Michael Connelly: I left my options open deliberately. The ending of this
book shakes up Harry's world a lot, but it isn't the end of Harry Bosch; I'm
about to start the next Harry novel now. And I felt that I should shake
things up for myself as well, so I'll be writing that book in the first
person, which I've never done before. You've become very familiar with him
over the course of eight books, but it's still daunting to get so fully
inside his head like that. "

Read the entire interview: http://www.beatrice.com/interviews/connelly/

There's a lot of good stuff on there, including an interview of Harry Bosch
by Michael Connelly...only to be read AFTER reading City of Bones!

Hope this helps.

I just read CITY OF BONES myself and loved it. I
thought the ending was an intentional cliffhanger. And
to put your mind at ease, I saw Michael Connelly on
one of the morning news shows recently, and I am
quite sure he said he would do a Harry Bosch book
after his next, non-Bosch book.
