Only two weeks after its debut as October’s WOWIO Free Book of the Month, Brian James Freeman’s The Painted Darkness has already shattered the all-time download record for the free eBook download program, which began back in 2006.

WOWIO readers and other fans of the book have been showing their appreciation of what Publishers Weekly calls “fast-paced, satisfying horror” by telling their Facebook and Twitter friends about the free download and by snapping up signed collector’s copies of the hardcover print edition.

This WOWIO-exclusive eBook edition (with bonus extras including an audio reading of the book’s first chapter by Pod of Horror host Mark Justice) is only available through October. If you haven’t already downloaded your free PDF of The Painted Darkness, get it now!

WOWIO is partnering with another of our publisher friends to bring you this high-profile graphic novel for free! We’re not telling what the title is, but the book is a visual stunner and an exhilarating read that’s already in production as a major Hollywood film.

This WOWIO special edition features a special, behind-the-scenes video featurette about the film adaptation that’s making its worldwide debut on WOWIO. Also in this eBook are never-before-seen bonus images from the movie. These exclusive bonus extras are not available in any other edition — and it’s only available on WOWIO.

We’re ready for Halloween here at WOWIO, now that we’ve posted our spooky Book of the Month for October, The Painted Darkness. We’re excited about teaming up with Cemetery Dance Publications and author Brian James Freeman to offer this newly released novella that’s been compared to classic Stephen King and described as “elegant and haunting” and “dark, terrifying and deeply moving.”

This edition also includes bonus extras, including an interview with Ray Bradbury and, exclusively in this WOWIO edition, a reading of the book’s first chapter by Pod of Horror host Mark Justice.
