In reply to #1: This is difficult to assess because no one really knows how many books by someone have been sold, etc., but according to "Google Answers," Agatha Christie has sold over 2 BILLION books. WOW! Posted by kwoo1213 on Sep 14, 2008. |

William Shakespeare is also thought to have sold over 2 billion books, if his work is considered fiction. Posted by darcyle on Sep 22, 2008. |

Wikipedia's list looks well-researched: They have Shakepeare, Agatha Christie, Barbara Cartland, Harold Robbins, and Georges Siminon (French) in the top 5. Posted by blazedale on Sep 22, 2008. |
