Harper Lee's much awaited novel 'Go Set A Watchman' has hit the markets in the UK.

This book, which was penned beforehand, is set 20 years from the events of Lee's 1960 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel 'To Kill a Mockingbird,' and includes many characters from the acclaimed boo, the BBC reported.

The release of the book, which is the highest pre-ordered novel on Amazon since the last 'Harry Potter,' has received mixed response where critics are calling it a rough literature which could not surpass the greatness of her renowned 1960 work, while some said that Lee's imagination had too much integrity to be dismissed.
