Looks like Dan Brown may have published 5 too many.

As you indicate the # of sales is probably more important than the number of books produced.

Some only produced one, but it was killer stuff -- Gone With the Wind, To Kill a Mockingbird .....
I disagree on Brown and wholeheartedly agree on To Kill A Mockingbird. I find Brown's style gripping and his research exhaustive (if rather uniformly skewed, but hey).
The 4k book number is insane. Assuming a writing career of 50 years, that's almost two books per week without a single break.
