Australian titles dominate our bestsellers this week, with a homegrown top three in Dark Emu (history), Peace (crime fiction) and Damascus (fiction).

Also notable is the sleeper best seller Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi, which has been selling quietly and steadily since its release in September.
