DREAM DARK: A BEAUTIFUL CREATURES STORY Features Fan-Favorite Character
and Includes a Special Preview of the Upcoming BEAUTIFUL CHAOS Novel

New York, NY [June 7, 2011] – Little, Brown Books for Young Readers will publish an exclusive e-book as part of the bestselling BEAUTIFUL CREATURES series by award-winning authors Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, it was announced today by Andrew Smith, the division’s Vice President and Deputy Publisher. DREAM DARK: A BEAUTIFUL CREATURES STORY is a never-before-seen short story, created as a prequel to BEAUTIFUL CHAOS, the hugely anticipated third book in the series, which goes on sale October 18.  The e-book is set to release on August 2 for $1.99, and will be available for download across all digital platforms.

This all-new story focuses on the fan-favorite character Link who undergoes a heart-racing transformation.  Wounded during a climactic battle, Link slowly realizes that being bitten by a Supernatural does more than break the skin—it can change a person, inside and out, turning him into a creature more and more like the dark creature who injured him.  As a special bonus, DREAM DARK will include an exclusive sneak peek at the first five chapters of BEAUTIFUL CHAOS.

“We have had strong success with the first two books in the series in e-book form— with sales of over 30,000 copies combined,” remarked Andrew Smith. “It is thrilling to be able to announce a brand-new e-book story by these dynamic, bestselling authors— and have it available this summer for the countless fans who have been clamoring for a further glimpse into this fantastical world and are eagerly awaiting the October 18 release of BEAUTIFUL CHAOS.”

"We are so happy to continue to support our loyal online readership with this original e-book,” say authors Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, on their decision to write a short story in this format. “So many of our readers have asked us to write more about other characters in the BEAUTIFULCREATURES novels, Link in particular. This story is for them."

BEAUTIFUL CREATURES was named an Amazon #1 Teen Best Book of The Year and #5 Editor’s Pick Best Book of the Year for 2009.  BEAUTIFUL DARKNESS was an instant New York Times, Indiebound, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestseller. Foreign rights have sold in 28 languages and movie rights have been optioned by Warner Bros. with Richard LaGravenese set to write the script and direct, with Erwin Stoff to produce.
