Sorry - unclued are not to be highlighted only the novel's title.
Question Author
Novalis, thank you, but I never get as far as completing it and sending it in. :-)
I'm a novice at this one. I highlight the unclued lights to help with what I might be looking for.
I do the same on my rough version.
Did you get any further with this? Of the 10 unclued, 18d is the author's surname. 21d is a synonym of the first part of 27a, which is a name of a character in one of his novels. 36 is a synonym of the second word of the title of the book (_ _ _ _ Fire)
Question Author
I did thank you, Jay.

Only five more to do.
3d, 14ac, 24ac, 33d and 40ac
3 is a rare word for a kind of plug (in a tobacco pipe).
14 'front of' indicates first letter of the next word + a kind of music playing device = a kind of stand.
24 'n' for name inside a word meaning an advance.
33 a word for popular + a word for 'to long for' = a term for a kind of music or record label.
40 Abbreviation for Area + a word meaning 'points of intersection' without the letter 'o' = an example of a kind of 'range'.
Hope this helps, without actually giving the solutions - let us know if you want more help...
