FREE Creepy Ebook or Audio Book

I am a part of the LibraryThing.com ‘s Early Book Reviewers program, and came across this unique offer for a new book. The author is giving away copies of it in ebook or audio book format for a limited time in the hopes it will generate buzz and people will still buy the hardcover.

I am the first one in line when it comes to getting a free book, so I jumped on the site right away and downloaded my copy. It is a short book, but is an interesting creepy ride in the life of one man. I really enjoyed it, and am going to purchase the hardcover as well.

Here is the synopsis from the publisher:

When Henry was a child, something terrible happened in the woods behind his home, something so shocking he could only express his terror by drawing pictures of what he had witnessed. Eventually, Henry’s mind blocked out the bad memories, but he continued to draw, often at night by the light of the moon.

Twenty years later, Henry makes his living by painting his disturbing works of art. He loves his wife and his son, and life couldn’t be better… except there’s something not quite right about the old stone farmhouse his family now calls home. There’s something strange living in the cramped cellar, in the maze of pipes that feed the ancient steam boiler.

A winter storm is brewing, and soon Henry will learn the true nature of the monster waiting for him down in the darkness. He will battle this demon and, in the process, he may discover what really happened when he was a child — and why, in times of trouble, he thinks: I paint against the darkness.

But will Henry learn the truth in time to avoid the terrible fate awaiting him… or will the thing in the cellar get him and his family first?

Written as both a meditation on the art of creation and as an examination of the secret fears we all share, The Painted Darkness is a terrifying look at the true cost we pay when we run from our grief — and what happens when we’re finally forced to confront the monsters we know all too well.

Go download your free copy now while it is still available. What do you think about this offer? Is Brian James Freeman a marketing genius or out of his mind? Please comment below.
