1.5 Million Copies of Overlook’s Sudoku Books in Print–and Counting!
In July, The Overlook Press introduced the U.S. to a book of puzzles that Americans had never played, compiled by a U.K. puzzle master whose name no American recognized. The book was THE BOOK OF SUDOKU, and the puzzle master was Michael Mepham. Two months later, Michael Mepham’s Sudoku books dominate the market, and Overlook continues to bring puzzle enthusiasts and casual Sudoku fans new products. SUDOKU TO GO, the first rack-sized book on the market, is flying off of shelves across the country.
This is absolutely an inspirational story not just for puzzle fans but for independent book publishers. It’s all about recognizing and creating new niches!
