Note from the Times: This bestseller list comes to us straight from The Raven Book Store in Lawrence. See other editions of the list here.
This week’s bestseller list is anchored by two massive fantasy prequels, with Samantha Shannon’s standalone prequel to “Priory of the Orange Tree” landing at No. 1, and Shannon Chakraborty’s launch of a new series 1,000 years before “City of Brass” landing at No. 6.
Elsewhere on the list, the dynamic poetry pair of Mercedes Lucero and Courtney Faye Taylor land at 4 and 5 after their magnificent Raven event from last week. Thanks as always for your support!
