Legion

Legion appears in How to make a BOOK into a bestseller as the William Peter Blatty sequel whose absence from the New York Times bestseller list led to litigation. The source uses the case to show that bestseller ranking can affect rights value and future promotion even when the list is not a transparent raw-sales chart.

The book’s wiki role is narrow: it anchors the legal boundary around Bestseller List Opacity and the Times’s protected editorial judgment.
