The latest "Left Behind" novel by Tim LeHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, The Mark, debuted at #1 on four lists and at #5 on a fifth list. Last week's debut, Robert Jordan's Winter's Heart, slipped a notch or two on some lists and debuted on two more. George R.R. Martin's A Storm of Swords remains on three lists, including however Amazon's hardcover fiction list, which does not appear to have been updated this past week. Still going strong: Anne Rice's Merrick, books by Philip Pullman and J.K. Rowling, and Stephen King's On Writing. And Terry Pratchett's The Truth is #1 on the Times of London list for the third week in a row.

The table compiles SFFH books placing 15^th or higher on general bestseller lists (30^th 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.
