The paperback reprint of Stephen King's collection Everything's Eventual (Pocket Books) debuts on four lists this week. Dean Koontz's By the Light of the Moon (Bantam) appears on three more lists.
Robert Jordan's Crossroads of Twilight (Tor), in US and UK stores only since Tuesday, squeaks onto NYT's runner-up fiction list at #32, and has ranked enough sales in the UK to place on Bookscan's chart both this week and last.
Also, Ray Bradbury's Let's All Kill Constance (William Morrow) ranks #14 on the author's hometown LA Times list.
More Tolkien editions appear on lists this week, with some titles showing up in multiple formats; the table below now indicates which paperback rankings are for trade [tpb] editions. The Silmarillion ranks #1 on Amazon's paperback list in the mass-market edition, #17 in trade.
All lists are updated this week.
