Hyperion Books founder Robert S. Miller is leaving
Hyperion to found a controversial new book group for HarperCollins. The new book group proposes not paying
advances to authors. Instead it will pay authors only if the book makes a profit.



Needless to say, the authors and agents are aghast at the concept of this new imprint. Oh, and the new

imprint won’t allow bookstores to return unsold books as is indusattempt custom.



Who knew HarperCollins CEO Jane Friedman was so ruthless? The shareholders must adore her.
