Michael Connelly

Join Michael Connelly and his longtime editor, Asya Muchnick, in an online deep-dive discussion of THE PROVING GROUND. This online event is free and open to anyone who wants to read the book and join. It will be held online on Tuesday, November 18, from 8-9pm ET/5-6pm PT. That’s four weeks after the book’s publication date of October 21, giving you some time to read the book first. A recording of the event will be made available for any club member who can’t watch it live at that time. Those who join the club will receive exclusive “behind-the-writing” videos and bonus information via email before the event, to add to their reading experience. They will also be given a chance to ask questions in advance of the event. We really hope you’ll sign up and join us.

We have a list of stores getting a supply of signed copies. You can pre-order yours in advance. You can also pre-order a personalized inscription from one of the bookstores on Michael’s book tour (in advance of their event) and have it shipped.

“Bestseller Connelly crafts a riveting eighth case for attorney Mickey Haller… Connelly effectively dips his toe into topical waters here, touching on adolescent male loneliness and the dangers of AI without skimping on the propulsive plotting he’s known for. Newcomers and series fans alike will find this fast-paced legal procedural intensely satisfying.”
— Publishers Weekly

“The Proving Ground is the most relevant and compelling legal thriller of the decade, and Michael Connelly proves once again that nobody captures courtroom drama and the high-wire act of justice quite like him.”
—Ryan Steck, The Real Book Spy
