ratatask Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Does anyone know how many times Brandon has been on the NY Times bestseller list or where I can find this info? Even better would be if anyone knows when he peaked, at what number, and with which book. His website says he's been on it 6 times, but then it also talks about projects upcoming in 2013, so clearly it's *way* out of date! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstRainbowRose Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Each adult book since WoA has hot at least top 25. (If I remember correctly WoA got number 22.) Past that, I am not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratatask Posted March 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 I decided to figure this out myself since I couldn't find it listed anywhere. This is what I've found: NY Times #1 Bestsellers Adult Fiction Hardcover Words of Radiance (Stormlight 2) #1 March 23, 2014 Towers of Midnight (WoT) #1 Nov 21, 2010 The Gathering Storm (WoT) #1 Nov 15, 2009 Memory of Light (WoT) #1 January 27, 2013 Young Adult Series Firefight (Reckoners 2) #1 in YA Series, January 25, 2015 Steelheart (Reckoners 1) #1 in YA Series, October 13, 2013 Calamity (Reckoners 3) #1 in YA Series, February 25, 2016 / March 6, 2016 (also Earlier in the week, the book hit #1 on the Audible bestseller list (for all titles, all genres) ) Top Ranking for other books: Adult Fiction Hardcover Shadows of Self (Mistborn 5) #8 October 18, 2015 The Bands of Mourning (Mistborn 6) #6 February 4, 2016 Alloy of Law (Misborn 4) #7 October 21, 2015 Way of Kings (Stormlight 1) #7 September 19, 2010 Warbreaker #24 June 28, 2009 Young Adult The Rithmatist, #6 YA, May 22, 2013 I don't believe there is a NYT Bestseller list for short stories, so that leaves out a number of them. Elantris was his first, before enough people knew him for a book of his to make it on the Bestseller list. I also don't see Alcatraz on any bestseller lists. That leaves the original three Mistborns. I don't think they made it to the best seller list either, but I have not been able to confirm. Can anyone else? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
