Close Window The Reign Continues YA queen Stephenie Meyer holds on to top spots by Diane Roback Mar 22, 2010 The Stephenie Meyer juggernaut continues. Though the queen of the vampire novel didn't release any new books in 2009, demand was still enormous, fueled by the New Moon film and the DVD release of 2008's Twilight . Combining the various hardcover, paperback, and movie tie-in editions, Meyer sold just under 26.5 million copies of her Twilight saga in 2009. That's a remarkably similar figure to last year's (27.5 million). Add in 912,000 copies sold of her adult novel, The Host , and it looks like Meyer, and Little, Brown, had another very good year. So did Jeff Kinney, chronicler of all things Wimpy. His two new additions to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series sold 5.7 million, and his three backlist titles (including a do-it-yourself journal) sold another 3.8 million, for a total of 9.5 million copies. These days it's all about series, in the numbers game. The many paranormal series continue their reign on bestseller lists, including PC and Kristin Cast's House of Night books (nearly 5.4 million copies sold, in various editions), Alyson Noël's Immortals series (1.6 million), L.J. Smith's The Vampire Diaries (1.6 million) and Night World (1.3 million), and Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead (1.2 million). In other series news, Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson books are still huge, with 3.3 million copies sold, James Patterson sold 3.2 million copies of his various lines for kids, and the multi-authored 39 Clues series sold 1.7 million copies. But other kinds of titles find their way onto the lists too. There were new novels from Kate DiCamillo (352,000 copies) and Sarah Dessen (231,000 copies), and a Hunger Games sequel from Suzanne Collins (460,000 copies). And a few titles from celebrities could be spotted (Lauren Conrad, 477,000 copies sold; Miley Cyrus, 342,000 copies; Glenn Beck, 322,000 copies), though fewer than in previous years. Note: the figures that follow were provided by the publishers. They reflect sales in calendar year 2009 for books (minus returns) for books published in 2009.

The lack of parser surprisingly does not lead to lack of interaction, as there are always many choices to choose from and many possible solutions to The Quest Begins same puzzle, including optional ones. In Journeyyou become part of a well-written The Quest Begins, controlling a band of hardy adventurers as they set out to find the cause and remedy of failing crops in their small village. Despite the The Quest Begins claim that many puzzles are optional, you'll quickly find that the game isn't as non-linear as it seems: you might make your way to the final stages of the game, only to discover that you cannot continue because you didn't solve some puzzles in the past in an "optimal" way. This is most aggravating with the game's magic system-- spellcasting requires "essences," e. Because the game never hints at how much essence you will find, you are free to waste a lot of them in solving various optional puzzles, only to find out later that you need more than you have. This "realism" makes Journey a frustrating save-and-restore type of game, and this may intimidate IF newbies.

Leafstar is desperate to believe that her Clan will survive where the ancient SkyClan cats failed. However, the biggest problem that bothers me the most would be the somewhat small climax and resolution. Sharpclaw is such a weak, straw-like character. I just thought his methods were a little shady. He's a surprisingly good fighter. Billystorm — I thought it was interesting that Leafstar's love-interest was a bit more of a side-character, but a very important side-character. Although Leafstar is too insecure for my tastes Warriors Super Edition: Skyclans Destiny was Firestar in this story's prequel Firestar's Quest and I don't agree with the book's assessment of Sharpclaw's behavior and secret keeping, for the most part I enjoy the characters. Warriors Super Edition 1 - 10 of 13 books. This made me think about how many people have their own inner struggles that people don 19t know about. No one cares about Skyclan. The book talks about a cat that is leader of the clan. Short stories and plays.

FunBy spark kitThis book I recommend for anyone who loves warriors and loves to see how it was before star clan. I thought this book was totally awesome and so interesting I read the whole book in one day I couldn't take my eyes off the pages.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Not just for young children!By Demimonde Mesila ThraamThe language, themes and emotions of the Warriors series are universal, and labeling these as books for 7-12 year olds does the series an unfortunate disservice. They can be enjoyed by teens and adults every bit as much, if they love cats and good fantasy; I suggest these books as excellent family experiences. I find this prequel subset of the Warriors series, Dawn of the Clans,to be particularly emotional, and this second installment is no exception.
