A proposito di questo titolo
From the New York Times bestselling author of Red Rabbit comes a supernatural horror where ghosts and ghouls are the least of a witch’s problems in nineteenth-century New England.
Something wicked is going on in the village of Ascension. A mother wasting away from cancer is suddenly up and about. A boy trampled by a milk cart walks away from the accident. A hanged man can still speak, broken neck and all.
The dead are not dying.
When Rabbit and Sadie Grace accompany their friend Rose to Ascension to help take care of her ailing cousin, they immediately notice that their new house, Bethany Hall, is occupied by dozens of ghosts. And something is waiting for them in the attic.
The villagers of Ascension are unwelcoming and wary of their weird visitors. As the three women attempt to find out what’s happening in the town, they must be careful not to be found out. But a much larger—and more dangerous—force is galloping straight for them…

Recensioni della critica
Praise for Rose of Jericho:
“Grecian paints a colorful portrait of a more superstitious America where the death of Death is believable and ghosts and angels shape the outcome of the grotesque incidents that follow. The result is a refreshingly original period dark fantasy.”
—Publishers Weekly
Praise for Red Rabbit:
Winner of the 2024 Mountain Plains Library Association's Literary Contribution Award
Finalist for the Reading the West Book Awards
“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 ofThe Book of Love
“Echoing True Grit, TheGood 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
“Red Rabbit is a completely immersive experience. With a perfect blend of weirdness, carnage, and unlikely friendships, this is an absolute riot of a book.”
—Reactor
“Red Rabbit is one hell of a rollicking, bloody stagecoach ride across the American West of old. With monsters, mayhem and magic aplenty, this is a journey that burrows deep under your skin and stays there.”
—Matthew Lyons, author of A Mask of Flies and A Black and Endless Sky
“Eerie, exhilarating and endearing, Red Rabbit paints the old American West red and wicked, but also creates a world that the bold and curious will love to explore, provided you're handy with a hex and a six-shooter.”
—Johnny Compton, author of The Spite House
“Alex Grecian has crafted a winding river of a tale that is fast-paced, intricately patterned, funny, and scary all in equal measure. It’s a wild ride and I enjoyed every page.”
—Shaun Hamill, author of A Cosmology of Monsters
