E.L. James returns to the top of the Apple iBooks Store with Darker, her latest in the 50 Shades series. The sales represent pre-orders since Darker wasn't released until yesterday. Bold-name thrillers by David Baldacci, Lee Child, John Grisham, and Dan Brown round out the rest of the top five. R.J. Palacio's Wonder floats to #6 on the strength of its film adaptation starring Julia Roberts, while Andy Weir's Artemis, his much-anticipated follow-up to The Martian, hits #10.
