SFFH Books on General Bestseller Lists
posted 3 January 2006
|
Not much new this week. C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia still resides at #1 on USA Today's combined list. George R.R. Martin's A Feast for Crows has dropped off several lists, but still ranks #22 on the New York Times fiction hardcover list. They've slipped a bit, but five titles by J.K. Rowling remain on the USA Today list. Washington Post skipped this week.
