Brian James Freeman is primarily known for his small, classy press, Lonely Road Books, which just published Stephen King’s novella “Riding the Bullet,” with the screenplay by Mick Garris included. Freeman is also the managing editor of Cemetery Dance magazine. What most people don’t know is that this very talented man is an author ... a writer of speculative fiction. In fact, Freeman is so good at the written word that he could give King and Peter Straub a run for their money. Freeman’s “The Painted Darkness” is a short novel, but every bit as powerful in character development and cutting-edge prose as the larger tomes that now are being published by the mainstream houses. In other words, this little book is what I consider to be a priceless gem just waiting to be discovered by readers of horror fiction.
