It's not that I want to doubt your source from the Guardian, but four months later they published http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2011/aug/18/james-patterson-best-paid-author , noting that James Patterson's income for the year was $84 million, which would have put him eighth on that list.
Also: "The Mirror Crack'd" is Tennyson, not Shakespeare. Tsk, tsk.
