For example "They are talking about the least successful novel ever written", can I say "Hablan de la novela menos exitosa jamás escrita"?
Does this construction also work for negative statements?

Hola Nicholas
With the emphatic "jamás" I'd say It's mostly used with "más" but you could also use it with "menos" as in your example: "Hablan de la novela menos exitosa jamás escrita" - this is absolutely correct.
Saludos
