Despite the numerous death certificates and obituary statements regarding print journalism, the printed book continues to resist and insists on staying, even in the face of audio and digital alternatives. The printed version remains the most popular and best-selling. Today, the famous American author Dan Brown, known for his thrilling and detective novels filled with adventure and history, announced his return after an absence of over eight years. He is the author of well-known works that have been transformed into highly successful Hollywood films such as "The Da Vinci Code," "Angels & Demons," and "Inferno," along with other titles of equal success. He now returns with another exciting novel titled "The Secret of Secrets," which has been released in fifteen languages simultaneously, covering the United States, Canada, most of Europe, and Brazil in an initial print run exceeding one and a half million copies. The publishing house responsible for the book has committed to doubling the number of printed copies in the coming days, followed by printing copies for the Far East in various languages, including Arabic. Of course, Dan Brown is one of the stars of the literary world, referred to by publishers as a "bestselling name," whose novels achieve record sales time and time again. He is similar in this regard to the well-known American author John Grisham, who has also achieved record sales with his books, some of which have been adapted into successful films. In this context, one cannot forget the famous Brazilian author Paulo Coelho, who is dubbed the "McDonald's of books" due to his cross-cultural and border-spanning popularity.

The largest global publishing house, Penguin Random House, recently stated that it publishes nearly twenty thousand print titles and seventy thousand digital titles, with sales approaching five billion dollars. Following them is the giant American publisher HarperCollins, with ten thousand print titles and sales amounting to two billion dollars.
