"The 3-5-7 Model Workbook" grabbed the top spot thanks to the use of the book in the author's consulting and seminar practice. The late Beth Lancione's childrens book "Solomon Screech Owl's Antarctic Adventure" was released in February, and benefitted from family events. Recently released R. Michael Phillips' thriller "Between Good and Evil" showed thanks to author release events in the Philadelphia area. "Where Elephants Fought," Bridget Smith's historical novel about Confederate General Earl Van Dorn's mysterious death moved up to #4 thanks to ongoing interest in the Vicksburg, Mississippi area. James Craig Atchison's hockey/detective thriller "Blue Lines Up in Arms" ratcheted to #5 due to author events and activities. John E Wade II's "The Bipolar Millionaire" held on the list at #6, buttressed by author publicity efforts. Jess Steven Hughes grabbed two spots with his Roman historical fiction, taking #7 with "The Wolf of Britannia Part I" and #29 with "The Sign of the Eagle." Hughes continues to make his rounds of bookstores in the Pacific northwest. Allen Mindell also reserved two spots with his popular sports fiction titles, #8 "The B Team" and #9 "The Closer." Mindell continues to prosper from appearances in southern California. Keith Rommel's convention activity and movies pushed two of his titles up the list. "The Lurking Man" just made the top 10, while "The Cursed Man" was at #14. Both films are expected out in the next 12 to 18 months. Nancy Williams' recently released "Rabid Philadenderer's, Inc." jettisoned to #11 thanks to orders from upstate Pennsylvania. The late Ted Brusaw's novel about Benedict Arnold, "Perilous Journey," climbed to #12 thanks to promotional efforts by his widow. Lucky #13 went to M. A. Richards and his spy thriller "Choice of Enemies" thanks to author promotional activities. Ricky Bruce's new YA release "Sucked Into Cyberspace" debuted at #15 due to author activities in the San Jose, California region. William Lemanski has benefitted from the sales of his murder mystery, "Murder in Tuxedo Park," very popular in his Tuxedo Park, New York hometown. The book was #16 in the rankings, pulling up his biography of Kermit Roosevelt, "Lost in the Shadow of Fame," which returned to the list at #23. Investigative reporter Chris Papst's "Capital Murder," about the mayoral scandal in Harrisburg, continues to sell steadily in Pennsylvania's capital city, taking #17. "That Night at Surigao," Ernie Marshall's naval history of the last battle of battleships in World War II grabbed #18 thanks to ongoing interest in the subject matter. Mike Campbell's "Amelia Earhart: The Truth at Last" continues to sell steadily, ranking #19. "Mary Sachs: Merchant Princess," about the Harrisburg pioneering entrepreneur, benefitted from author Barbara Blank's television appearance, taking #20. Guy Graybill was back in the rankings at #21 and #28 with his Prince Farrington biographies "Prohibition's Prince" and "Prince and the Paupers." Guy has been making his rounds again in the Williamsport, Pennsylvania area. Sharon Marchisello's Alzheimers thriller "Going Home" jumped to #22 thanks to author appearances. Joe Fair's Vietnam memoir, "Call Sign Dracula," continues to sell well, including overseas, taking #24. Robert Walton's humorous adventure/thriller "Fatal Snow" was boosted by author appearances, returning to the rankings at #25. Haley Dean took #26 with her thriller "Keep it Blue" thanks to ongoing author online efforts. Kyle Romines' thriller "Keeper of the Crows" slipped to #27, holding on thanks to sales in the Louisville, Kentucky area. Anthony Julian clung to #30 with his "Pit Bulls" compilation of historic photos of the breed. Julian's book was popular over the Christmas season, but has faded of late.
