Royal bestsellers: September & October 2012

We have an interesting bestseller list this month! As always, the list is based on sales made through the Royalty.nu website and its companion blogs, including this blog.

World of Royalty visitors continue to favor books about modern European royalty and, of course, British royals. Once again, half the books on this list are repeats from the previous bestseller list. In fact, the books that ranked #1 and #2 in July/August are still in first and second place.

Historical fiction also continues to be popular, which is part of the reason there is a four-way tie for this list's #3 slot!

I want to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who buys books through the links on Royalty.nu and its blogs. The commissions I receive from Amazon help me to keep the World of Royalty online. Your support is much appreciated.
