Sodoku craze adds up to book sales - Yahoo! News:
n Britain alone, more than two million sudoku-related books have been sold since the Times newspaper first introduced the addictive puzzle to readers just last year.At one point earlier this year, six of the country’s top 10 nonfiction bestsellers were sudoku books, and if publishers’ predictions are correct, it could happen again as shoppers stuff Christmas stockings with sudoku.
Gee, how hard can it be to come out with a Sudoku book?
The Times’ publisher, HarperCollins, still accounts for about 43 percent of British sudoku book sales despite fierce competition, including from rival newspapers The Independent, the Guardian, the Daily Telegraph and others.Amazon.com lists more than 100 sudoku titles on both its American and British sites and many rank in the top 500 sellers.
