The Heartland Independent Booksellers’ Association (HIBA) reported today that Gregory McGuire’s novel Wicked, about the life and times of the Wicked Witch of the West as told from her perspective, hit #11 on the paperback fiction bestsellers list. This is really an impressive showing for a title that’s over five years backlisted!
Gregory McGuire’s Wicked is published by HarperCollins, and they have an incredible vanity site on Wicked and for Gregory McGuire himself. They have reviews, title info, a reading guide and audio excerpt, and a few other things to keep you entertained. They really did a top notch job on it.
