The Litigators

''The Litigators'' is a 2011 legal thriller novel by John Grisham, his 25th fiction novel overall. ''The Litigators'' is about a two-partner Chicago law firm attempting to strike it rich in a class action lawsuit over a cholesterol reduction drug by a major pharmaceutical drug company. The protagonist is a Harvard Law School grad big law firm burnout who stumbles upon the boutique and joins it only to find himself litigating against his old law firm in this case. The book is regarded as more humorous than most of Grisham's prior novels.
Critical reviews were mixed for the book, with several opinions noting a lack of suspense. Nonetheless, the book has achieved both hardcover and ebook #1 best seller status on various lists, including both ''The New York Times'' and ''The Wall Street Journal''. However, since some services do not separate fiction and non-fiction books, it did not debut as a #1 bestseller on certain lists, such as the ''USA Today''. Some reviewers noted that this story would lend itself to an adapted screenplay.
==Background==
Having sold 250 million copies of his previous 24 novels in 29 languages, Grisham had produced an international bestseller with each prior book.〔 Including the release of ''The Litigators'', Grisham has produced 23 adult fiction novels and 2 children's fiction novels as well as a short story collection. In addition, he has produced one non-fiction book. Thus, various sources claim this to be his 23rd, 25th,〔 or 26th book.〔
In the first of a two-part interview with ''The Wall Street Journal'', Grisham claimed that although he usually attempts to include humor in his submitted drafts, it is usually removed during the editorial process. However, in this case much of the humor survived editing. In the second part of the interview the following week, Grisham noted that his inspirations for the book included television advertisements and the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
