11 August 2002


J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire last year's Hugo Award winner is out in paperback in the US, and debuts on three lists this week, placing in the #1 position at USA Today. The book has been out in paperback in the UK for a while.
One other book debuts this week, Matthew Stover's Star Wars: The New Jedi Order: Traitor (Del Rey), on three lists.
The Philip K. Dick UK movie tie-in Minority Report is up to #5 on Amazon UK's hardcover fiction list.
Two of the lists, BookSense and Amazon, are unavailable today; those columns below have not been updated.

This cell color indicates rankings on children's bestsellers lists |
[Italics and brackets indicate stale data -- rankings from one or more weeks before -- and do not contribute to the cumulative weeks on any list totals] |
Key:
The table shows the current rank of each book and the change since last week, 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, The Bookseller, 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. Dates shown are posted dates, except those in parentheses, which are dates compiled. New York Times posts its list one week in advance of print publication.
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.
