The #1 best-selling book for Kin­dle in 2011 was The Mill River Recluse by Dar­cie Chan. The #4 best­selling book for Kin­dle in 2011 was The Abbey by Chris Cul­ver. Both books were pub­lished using Kin­dle Direct Pub­lish­ing, Amazon’s self-publishing platform.

Within months, The Heav­i­est Cor­ner on Earth will be avail­able for down­load via Kin­dle and a num­ber of other e-book retail­ers. Check the web­site often for release info.
