SFFH on Bestseller Lists
10 March 2002
Both the Simmons and Fforde novels noted last time have dropped off their lists after only one week.
Bored of the Rings is still selling remarkably well in the UK -- it's in the top 10 hardcovers on both UK lists charted below. Why hasn't it been re-issued in the US?
The only debut this week is the paperback of Laurell K. Hamilton's A Kiss of Shadows, among the runners-up on the New York Times list.
Amazon's lists are unchanged for a fourth week now.

| 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.
