| | Tribute Sequel Phenomenon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29) |
 | | Someone did a sequel, reflecting new physics knowhow and especially quantum theory etc, to George Gamow's 'Mr Thompson', about the scatty chap who fills his daydreams with thought-experiments. |
 | | The Foundation Novels, by Isaac Asimov, for which three authors, Gregory Benford, Greg Bear, and David Brin, have written "The Second Foundation Trilogy", set (apparently, to judge from "Foundation's Fear") as a series of interquels to "Forward the Foundation", Asimov's last novel. |
 | | Although it's not quite the same, Doctor Who being a gestalt writing effort anyway, great and inglorious infamy may also be awarded to John Peel's "War of the Daleks", which pays tribute to the memory of Terry Nation by re-writing, retconning, and eventually entirely rejecting the plot of his last written contribution to the mythology. |
