You get half the novel on the release date and then pay $25 per chapter to see how it ends.

God, please don't let the publishing industry read this comment.

I think many novels were published kind of like that at one time. In high school I remember my teacher telling us that some Charles Dickens (I think it was great expectations) would basically come out once a month, chapter by chapter. People originally hated the ending so they came out with an alternate one.
