Here's a quote of the review.
--- Quote ---In a genre where mainstream success regularly leads to mind-numbing repetition (unnecessarily prolonged series that recycle predictable plotlines) and shameless mass imitation, true creative genius is often hard to find.

Peter Ahlstrom:
its sales rank would put it somewhere around #15 on the current bn.com bestselling science fiction list, but it hasn't been updated.
Peter Ahlstrom:
it's now #40 on the bn.com science fiction bestseller list, which is NOT divided by children and adult, so things like Harry Potter are way up there...plus a zillion Douglas Adams books, which do deserve it...
(Not that the Rowling books don't deserve a high place on the appropriate chart. I just don't think it's very useful to see how Elantris's sales compare to Harry Potter's.)
