- Hugh Howey, Best-Selling Science Fiction Author, Brings Popular Works To Booktrack's Powerful Platform, Passionate Fan Community

- Exclusive Holiday Offer: 3 Free Premium Booktracks For All New Customers

- Booktrack Teams Up With Grado Headphones For Holiday Promotion

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Booktrack (www.booktrack.com), the first company to enrich the eBook experience by adding movie-style soundtracks and ambient sound while you read, is wrapping up 2015 having secured content partnerships with Dundurn, Skyhorse, Ellora's Cave and Light Messages, on top of offering special holiday promotions. The partnerships and the addition of New York Times Best Selling author Hugh Howey strengthen Booktrack's growing portfolio of independent publishers and fan favorite authors. Just in time for the holidays, Hugh Howey will bring his Silo series to the Booktrack Bookstore with two popular titles, Half Way Home and The Hurricane, available today.

Hugh Howey's Wool, Dust, Shift and Sand will join Hurricane, Mouth Breathers and Half Way Home in Booktrack's expanding library of content. Booktrack is thrilled to bring new life to the series that captured the imaginations of millions of readers across the globe and helped Howey pave the way for independent authors everywhere. Howey's work represents one of Booktrack's key core values of supporting talented independent authors. An early supporter of Booktrack, Howey believes the platform is a powerful way to reach and engage a new generation of readers.

"I haven't been this jazzed about a new way to read (and write) in forever," said Hugh Howey.

Libris Award-winning Canadian publisher Dundurn also joins the Booktrack family with the addition Elinor Florence's sweeping historical romance Bird's Eye View, Brenda Chapman's wintery murder mystery Cold Mourning and Philippa Dowding's magical middle grade novel The Strange Gift of Gwendolyn Golden. Dundurn will also help Booktrack readers amp up their fear factor with two great spooky reads: Tomes of Terror: Haunted Bookstores and Libraries by Mark Leslie and Meeting Place of the Dead: A True Haunting by Richard Palmisano.

Skyhorse brings a unique, genre-spanning portfolio to the Booktrack platform with incredible authors and titles, such as mystery writer Patrick F. McMannus' Circles in the Snow: A Bo Tully Mystery, young adult impresario Karina Summer-Smith's Radiant and Minecraft wizard Mark Cheverton's Invasion of the Overworld. 

Ellora's Cave continues to blaze new trails as they bring their unique romance and erotica titles to the Booktrack platform. Some of the company's initial titles in the Booktrack store include A.L Wiley's Guardian, Lora Leigh's Tempting the Beast, Desiree Holt's Jungle Inferno, Audra Carusso's Bring the Heat and Joanna Wylde's Reaper's Property.

Light Messages joins the Booktrack platform with a selection of top-selling books, including the political thriller Crossing Savage by Dave Edlund, Silverwood by Betsy Streeter, The Obsidian Dagger by Brad LaMar and How to Climb the Eiffel Tower by Elizabeth Hein.

"With every publishing partnership, Booktrack is able to offer this unique experience to a wider audience of readers," said Paul Cameron, CEO and Co-founder, Booktrack. "We now offer books in many genres, including young adult, mystery, thriller, suspense, horror, nonfiction, science fiction and more.  We are very excited to have these new publishing partners on board as they provide content that is a great fit for Booktrack, with a strong emphasis on first-time authors, and introducing them to a new medium with an engaged community of over 2.5 million readers who love the platform."
