Commentary:
  • Dead Watch: The Walking Dead Compendia retain the top two chart positions, but the rest of the WD surge from last week dissipates. Following double digit position drop for most of the remain collections, there are ten total this week, down seven from last week.
  • Jeffrey Brown's Vader's Little Princess surges this week head of its release in eleven days, bringing Darth Vader and Son along with it into the top ten. Meaning there are now two
    Jeffrey Brown books in the top ten. Jeffrey Brown + Star Wars = Sales.
  • Injustice Watch: With The Walking Dead sliding, Injustice: Gods Among Us rebounds and twelve of the thirteen extant Kindle issues hitting the charts, two in the top ten, and the latest issue is once again the top debut.
  • The only other debut is Book 8 in the popular Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. Which isn't due out until November. Start your holiday shopping early!
  • Diary Watch: The Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Dork Diaries franchises between them take up fifteen of the slots on the chart this week, the same as last week.
  • Kindle Watch: Twenty-five of the chart positions this week are taken up by Kindle editions, up six from last week.
