Resumen del Editor

Long-listed, Barnes and Noble Best New Books of the Year, 2023

"Impossible to put down.”—Kelly Link, author of Pulitzer Prize finalist Get In Trouble

From bestselling author Alex Grecian comes a folk horror epic about a ragtag posse that must track down a witch through a wild west beset by demons and ghosts—and where death is always just around the bend.

Sadie Grace is wanted for witchcraft, dead (or alive). And every hired gun in Kansas is out to collect the bounty on her head, including bona fide witch hunter Old Tom and his mysterious, mute ward, Rabbit.

On the road to Burden County, they’re joined by two vagabond cowboys with a strong sense of adventure–but no sense of purpose–and a recently widowed schoolteacher with nothing left to lose. As their posse grows, so too does the danger.

Racing along the drought-stricken plains in a stolen red stagecoach, they encounter monsters more wicked than witches lurking along the dusty trail. But the crew is determined to get that bounty, or die trying.

Written with the devilish cadence of Stephen Graham Jones and the pulse-pounding brutality of Nick Cutter, Red Rabbit is a supernatural adventure of luck and misfortune.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“This is a book I’m going to be pressing into the hands of every reader I know. It’s an epic, sometimes brutal, sometimes tender, but always surprising gallop of a book, populated by characters I found myself caring deeply about. Red Rabbit was impossible to put down.”—Kelly Link, author of Pulitzer Prize finalist Get In Trouble

“Echoing True Grit, The Good Lord Bird, and any number of classic tales of terror, Alex Grecian’s RED RABBIT is a riotous, Boschian, gun-slinging marvel.”—Laird Hunt, author of In the House in the Dark of the Woods

“Red Rabbit builds a hearty fire and invites you to sit a spell. A surprising story of witch hunters then unfolds, told in the plainspoken poetry of Larry McMurtry, with a dash of cockeyed whimsy. An invigorating–and entirely moving–tale of the American West.”—Andy Davidson, author of The Hollow Kind

Enjoyable

I enjoyed the book and the narrator was excellent! Will look for other books be the two.

I wish more audiobooks incorporated songs.

Very engaging Wild West fantasy. Wonderfully dark, but still a little goofy. I especially enjoyed the singing. I wish more audiobooks would incorporate music into the telling.

great story!!

Fantastic wild West supernatural yarn!! it all comes together so well!!! Highly recommend this one!

a great mix of old west setting and the paranormal

saw this as a Facebook ad and so glad I gave it a chance! once I started the story I couldn't stop listening. great story telling and characters. if you like western and the paranormal you'll like this. I've already recommended it to others.

Just great

Excellent narrator reads excellent book. Fun horror Western. Clean prose. Good characterization brought to life by the voice actor.

Mix of lonesome dove and Swan Song.

It's a good one and definitely worth a listen. Characters are likeable and I have no idea how it's going to end and I'm 3/4 thru which is impressive for a horror novel.

There is a character named Johnny Barth. Now that last name is the same as mine and I thought I never would hear that used in a book.

So Johnny Barth wasn't a cool dude. Hopefully a Barth wasn't like this in real life. Awesome book though and I'm pumped for the Authors next book.


This is off subject but this book deserves to be in the horror category unlike 98% of books in the horror section. it seems like now if you have a vampire in a book it's considered a horror novel yet it should really be in the romantic tween novel category.

Really excellent

I found this book through a Facebook promoted ad, which made me skeptical. I wasn’t familiar with the author, but the description sounded so good I gave it a try.

Once I started, I was totally hooked, and it was clear that this was no amateur. I looked up Alex Grecian, and I did, in fact know his work from the Scotland Yard Murder Squad series. I had read The Yard a few years ago, and liked (not loved) it - I had not tried the sequels.

As to Red Rabbit, Grecian struck just the right chord of giving me affection for and confidence in our protagonists, but with real conflict and uncertainty. I tend to dislike books where I feel our protagonists are truly at the mercy of forces beyond their control, or just overwhelmed by the antagonist’s power, such that they have to rely on luck or deus ex machina to prevail.

I also tend to dislike books with just morally black and white characters, and this one has several all along the spectrum.

Great story, great setting, excellent narration (including singing), just a book I kept anticipating returning to.

weird western wonder

amazing on so many levels! i loved the characters, and how they grew together. i loved the action! this story delivered on every level

the narrator did a wonderful job with the various voices and the songs too, just bravo!

look forward to exploring more of the authors stories

Excellent Story, amazing performance

The story was interesting and the narration was top notch. I was pleased to hear the tone and pace of the story, it gave it a real around the campfire tone.

Odd but interesting

You expect a witch hunt but this is so much more. Well worth the credit you spend.
