Hi, James here. Long time lurker, occasional poster. This is my book. I’m guessing someone at the publisher set up this Amazon link a while ago (I think the description is taken directly from the proposal I submitted back when *Afterlife *was first announced). The book is now called A Convenient Parallel Dimension: How Ghostbusters Slimed Us Forever and as far as I know it is being published in the Fall of 2022, not May. Everything else is correct on that link, though the book will cover Afterlife as well.

I considered myself a pretty die-hard GB fan before I started work on this project but I’ve learned so much it’s astounding. I can’t wait for everyone to read it and I hope everyone here on this board enjoys it. Thanks so much for your interest!

This is very exciting James! I hope you were afforded the leeway to go a little deeper on the Video Game than previous books have - it always seems to get quite cursory treatment considering it’s one of only four times the original cast have played those roles.

Yes, the book is going deeper on the video game. I interviewed a few of the core creative people and learned tons of fascinating stuff. You’re right, it’s an important juncture in the franchise history. Can’t gloss over it!
