SFFH on Bestseller Lists: 3 September 2000
|
Terry Goodkind's Faith of the Fallen debuts on several US lists this week, ranking #2 at NYT and PW. But it's already dropped off the Times of London list, after one week.
The top spot on many lists went to Tom Clancy's new book.
NYT’s children’s list this week is restricted to children’s picture books, leaving out Harry Potter. Yolen’s book ranks #3.
PW’s children’s list is updated for August, but none of the rankings have changed.
Note London’s list this week isn’t a real weekly list; because of the Bank Holiday, it's actually a compilation of data from the 4 weeks ending August 19.

The table compiles SFFH books placing 15th or higher on general bestseller lists (30th or higher on the combined USA Today list).
The current rank of each book and the change since last week are shown, where:
= same as last week
+ or - with number: difference since last week
+ back on list
++ new on list
x no longer on list (number of x's: weeks off list)
() below cut-off but noted anyway
-- previously noted anyway but now nowhere in sight
nyp Not-yet-published (pre-ordered)
Columns show ranks on lists from, respectively, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, USA Today, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, London Times, Publishers Weekly, BookSense, Amazon.com (fiction lists), and Amazon UK (fiction lists). All lists rank hardcovers and paperbacks separately, except for the USA Today list, which is a single list combining fiction and nonfiction in all formats. Some books are on separate general [nonfiction] lists (gen), children's lists (ch), trade paperback lists (tpb), or mass market paperback lists (mm), as indicated.
