I don't know if this is old news, but in case you don't know there's an unpublished novelisation of Grim Fandango by a guy called Charles Frederick. It's a great novelisation IMHO, with about 120 pages in size 10 writing. It tells the original story in great detail (taking plenty of lines in the game) as well as expanding on several parts of the story. For example, we are told from the novel what Manny gets up to in between those years (rather than just having to see the 'one year later' sign). The year he spends in Rubacava is very well done and Lola is given a much larger role in the story, as well as the three beatniks. The novel also comes with some other files and a separate story set in the GF universe which I haven't read.
The site that I have the link to also has some links to various bits of dialogue taken out of the original game, most notably the conversation between Manny and Domino that would've taken place in Year 3, but for some reason it was ommitted. THe conversation is fairly long and it reveals a lot of Hector and Domino's plans. The site also has some other links that I haven't tried.
Anyway, here's the link:
