The simplest characters ever it begins with the famous line it absolutely was the simplest of times it absolutely was the worst of times and it's about one in every of the 2 most beautiful cities London and Paris the story takes place before the French Revolution and it's divided into 45 chapters

holy bible

 
Holy Bible
1

The Bible over 5 billion copies we hope you do not think that this list of best-selling books would go down without the Holy Bible out of all the books within the world that are written the Bible is far and away from the hottest but which maybe because for a protracted time 

It absolutely was the sole thing being printed with a machine it has been translated in all languages and dialects I may be found in most households the Quran is additionally very hip and cosmopolitan but the Bible and Christianity reached more people there are Christians in China and African countries 

So it's safe to mention that it is the most popular religion within the world since the Holy Bible has been around for therefore a few years and also the fact the church distributes lots of copies to people it makes it hard to count all of the Bibles that are distributed to date the Guinness record book said that over five billion copies are sold but there are chances that the numbers are much higher certainly 

The Bible was all of its versions and edits his one book that has a powerful influence and might change a man's thinking process there are Wars and mass killings made within the name of God and also the Bible

The Quran

The 
Quran
But we're curious to work out how it'll survive within the years to come back only if people are less religious nowadays on the flip side the Quran is additionally massively distributed across the planet among Muslims and libraries

But again the matter of unreported copies from multiple publishers or synagogues does exist since there are not any official numbers it's safe to mention that over 1 billion copies of the Quran are sold or distributed across the planet to Muslims 

Vedas
Vedas
Another important book is that the Vedas the holy book of Hinduism and one in every of the oldest scriptures within the world the Vedas could be a collection of 4 books and might be originally found at the bank at our Oriental research institute in prune India there now a UNESCO memory of the planet heritage

Since these scriptures are transmitted for over many years verbally and lots of them burned during the religious wars and it's complicated to estimate what percentage copies are distributed most sources assume that around 1 billion of them exist although they're hard to read or understand

Thanks to the old Sanskrit language and also the lack of gurus available to interpret them now a the top this was our best-selling books list together with a number of the best authors of all time and it reasonably got us needing to read some more and see other authors. But until we want other great books to read.

We realize we mentioned two world-famous series during this top list Harry Potter and also the Lord of the Rings and we're curious to search out out which one's favorite are you guys Harry Potter fans or Lord of the Rings fans.

let's examine which one wins leave us your answers within the comment section below.

As always for sticking with us all to the top for being a real a here you get a bonus book now this next book is certainly a good whodunit with thrilling kills and ders.

Agatha Christie

Agatha christie and then there were none
If you are a fan of the author you recognize what we're talking about this one is certainly a best-seller to the author, Agatha christie and then there were none,100 million copies for our bonus book we took lots of fine books into consideration and it had been quite a tough choice.

It had been a tie between The Hobbit Harry Potter or Lolita some specific classic books within the end a fourth option came in and outnumbered them which was a book most of you most likely read or a minimum of heard about and so there have been none by author the book follows her signature sort of writing where the mystery is kept until the very end of the book and sometimes the killer or the suspect isn't the one you thought it might be it's almost like fictional character or her signature detective Hercule Poirot the story is about ten folks that are lured to an island apparently was nothing in common.

So one by one they're killed off by a mysterious killer that does not seem to be present within the end everything becomes clear but the thrilling way she keeps people hanging on to each page is amazing and that is why it sold over 100 million copies worldwide and it's one in every of the most effective-selling mystery books of all time variations of the book can be found for as little as two dollars on Amazon or originally titled versions 10 little for over.
