More Hunters Bestsellers

HUNTERS OF DUNE has been more successful than any of our previous seven Dune novels, hitting higher on virtually every bestseller list. Our fan mail and reader response has also been overwhelmingly positive, which is very gratifying for Brian and myself after all the work we've put into keeping Dune alive and in front of new readers. It's also a great incentive for us while we're giving the final polish to the SANDWORMS OF DUNE manuscript.

Here is the current tally of our bestseller lists:
