The TV miniseries version of Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Mists of Avalon triggered enough sales of the book to place it in the rankings of 5 lists this week, including New York Times and Publishers Weekly. New this week: Karen Joy Fowler's Sister Noon (Putnam), a novel set in 1890s San Francisco, ranks on this week's San Francisco Chronicle list at #13. Holding: Neil Gaiman's American Gods remains on three lists this week; Stephen King's Dreamcatcher on two, and Terry Pratchett's Thief of Time is still among the top 5 on both UK lists in the table below.

This cell color indicates rankings on children's bestsellers lists						Italics indicates stale data -- rankings from one or more weeks before

The table compiles SFFH books placing on general bestseller lists. The table shows 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)

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.

Note that some sources do not compile paperback bestsellers, and some exclude YA books (like the Harry Potter series) from their hardcover and paperback fiction lists.
