Once again, my apologies for missing last week’s bestseller list. My excuse is the same as the last time this happened, being busy with election and budget stories on a blog that is, after all, not my day job. The fiction bestseller for the week ended Oct. 27 was Agent Running in the Field by John le Carré, and the non fiction bestseller was Power Play: Professional Hockey and the Politics of Urban Development by Jay Scherer, David Mills, and Linda Sloan McCulloch.
