SFFH on General Lists
30 March 2003
In the wake of Sci-Fi Channel's broadcast of the Children of Dune mini-series, all 6 Dune novels by Frank Herbert, in their Ace editions, rank on Amazon's paperback bestseller list this week.
Otherwise, there's nothing new on the charts, and most of last week's books slip. The movie-tie edition of Stephen King's Dreamcatcher performs best, ranking on 5 lists, at #1 or #2 on 3 of them. Among hardcovers, Robert Jordan maintains on 3 lists, William Gibson is still on 4 lists, and Troy Denning and Michael Crichton hold on to 2 lists each.

| This cell color indicates rankings on children's bestsellers lists |
This cell color indicates rankings on pre-publication or 'not yet published' lists |
[Italics and brackets, and/or this cell color, 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)
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, and BookScan, which combines hardcovers and paperbacks within lists for fiction, nonfiction, and children's. 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.
