George R.R. Martin's A Feast for Crows (Bantam, forthcoming) shows up at #44 on Amazon's list today, fresh on the news that Martin has completed the manuscript. Amazon's indicated July 26, 2005 release date is probably optimistic, though.
Hardcover and paper editions of C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia appear on lists this week, perhaps in response to promotional trailers for the film adaptation of the first book, scheduled for December.
J.K. Rowling's forthcoming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince ranks #1 this week on all three Amazon lists.
