Krakauer Book Delayed

Jon Krakauer's latest book, The Hero, was scheduled to be released this October with a first printing of 500,000 copies. Krakauer is reportedly unhappy with the manuscript and has withdrawn the title from publication indefinitely. The Hero tells the story of Pat Tillman, the football star who enlisted in the Army and was killed in a "friendly fire" accident in Afghanistan. If the book does get re-scheduled for publication, it is likely it will not be released until 2009.
