but while I was double-checking, Amazon US for FTOTB jumped from 45 to 26
Beyond the Sunset isn't listed in the AH section, I think.
Looking at the overall sales rank, it'd be somewhere in the mid-twenties if it were.
 
Lots of movement on SLP books this afternoon: Drake's Drum still ahead of our other titles

Yeah, a lot of our stuff does suprisingly well when not strictly marketed as AH stuff, which mostly seems to be politics. Things that break away from that norm seem to do better... although good politics seems to stay around well too.
 
I'm trying to look at setting up my current spreadsheet for handling Current Bestsellers and the American charts, and it's going to be a hideous headache. At some point, we might have to standardize this.

Boy in the Storm: 59

I'm not surprised "The Boy in the Storm" is a bestseller, the way it's hooking me. The backstory seems more interesting than the "race-against-time" between the Americans and the Nazis over our two Boltonians.

We do need to be aware that, as the month progresses, our new titles will eventually sink as newer "new releases" from other publishers are released. Thus far, however, this tranche is holding on in the top 100 new releases for longer than the previous tranche did.......
 
I didn't expect to stick around for a fortnight, I assumed Amazon would be rigged to shuffle everyone out in favour of the new stuff

There will be "New stuff-" of course but the listings are, theoretically at least, sales-based. One new release from the end of April was still showing at the start of June.
