Struik's previous bestselling local titles include In Black and White: The Jake White Story by Jake White (Zebra Press) which sold over 200,000 copies in 2007.
The Random House Group balances this local publishing strength through its many diverse and highly respected imprints, providing Random House Struik with internationally acclaimed authors such as James Patterson, Ian McEwan, Philip Roth, Toni Morrison, Salman Rushdie, Bill Bryson, Richard Branson, Andy McNab, Terry Pratchett, Lee Child, Robert Harris, Dan Brown, Mark Haddon and Jacqueline Wilson.
