SFFH on Bestseller Lists: 28 October 2001
|
Anne Rice's latest vampire novel, Blood and Gold (Knopf), debuts on five lists, as high as #2 on the Wall Street Journal list.
Titles by Barker, Boyle, and Bradbury have dropped off lists after just one or two weeks. Novels by Brooks and by Herbert & Anderson show up on Amazon's list this week, after debuting on other lists several weeks ago.
Terry Pratchett's illustrated Discworld novella The Last Hero debuts at #3 on the Times of London's list.

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.
