The notable debut this week is Kelley Armstrong's Haunted (Bantam Spectra), a paperback original that debuts on 3 lists, as high as #11 on Publishers Weekly's mass market paperback list.
Also debuting this week: Umberto Eco's new novel, running-up on the New York Times hardcover fiction list; the latest novel from David & Leigh Eddings, at #83 on today's Amazon UK list; and Elizabeth Kostova's Dracula novel The Historian (Little, Brown), subject of a good deal of pre-publication publicity and/or hype, already on two Amazon lists and scheduled for bookstore laydown today.
J.K. Rowling's forthcoming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince ranks #1 this week on all three Amazon lists.
