Publishers Push MultiMedia Books

As the book business struggles to adjust to the digital age, some publishers are testing multimedia books and Web sites for popular authors.

St. Martin's just released the multimedia book "Personal Effects: Dark Art" by JC Hutchins and a multimedia site for Alyson Noel's hit young adult series "The Immortals." Penguin and Simon & Schuster are also testing new media efforts. You also have a chance to win Daisy's copy of "Personal Effects."
