 It is his first book since her death. She was acknowledged 
 as his writing partner in many ways, helping him with the 
 editing and research, as well as sometimes even a co-author. 
 He also said that he would not write any more without her, 
 but he says now that his family changed his mind.
 
-------------
I think it's not nearly as good as his other books - but I felt the writing decayed noticeably over the last few books anyway
