The second annual edition of the most comprehensive book ever produced for deal-makers, agents, and other rights market players, PublishersMarketplace.com's BOOK DEALS 2005, is now shipping.

Bigger than ever, BOOK DEALS: 2005 gathers together over 3,500 US deals from last year in a single oversized 300-page volume, organizing them and indexing them to provide at-a-glance and in-depth windows on the deal world that you can't get from electronic searching.

In the main text, deals are arranged by subject; within each sub-category, deals are sorted by imprint, deal size, and editor. Six detailed indices catalog all deals by both agent and agency (with authors listed); author (with agents cross-referenced); editor (with authors listed); publisher; and title. A special section organizes all the film deals from the year.

Up-front, you'll also find a special analysis of 176 debut fiction deals, comparing price ranges to all fiction sales, analyzing seasonality month-to-month, breaking down the numbers of pre-empts and auctions, and more. Another "extra" presents the 100 Most Reviewed Books and 100 Most Reviewed Publishers from 2004, including such stats as average reviews per book.

For everyone who finds our weekly deal reports essential, BOOK DEALS: 2005 does the same for the entire year, with the considerable added power of more detailed breakdowns and organization, indices, and more. It's the most comprehensive compilation and breakdown of data on deals, agents, editors, prices and patterns ever produced and should serve as a terrific tool.
 

BOOK DEALS: 2005 costs $125.00 per copy, including USPS Priority Mail shipping within the U.S. FedEx 2-day shipping and international shipping are available at extra cost.
