Written with the devilish cadence of Stephen Graham Jones’ The Only Good Indians and the pulse-pounding brutality of Nick Cutter’s Little Heaven, Red Rabbit is an epic adventure of luck and misfortune, 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 bonafide 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 between them – and a recently widowed schoolteacher with nothing left to lose. But 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 witch, or die trying.

I really loved this novel. It was such a delight and a very unique tale. It's carefully crafted and well written. Definitely a favorite of this year. The characters are all great and fleshed out and the plot moves along. This story is dark, somber and melancholic at times. Definitely check it out.
Thank you net galley and tor nightfire for this arc.
Chef's kiss. If you like dark fantasy, western - and maybe even quests - you will likely want to check this one out. The writing style reminded me of Kings of the Wyld, without any of the humor and instead with multi-POVs and ghouls, witches, werewolves, and much more. It is very gruesome so if you pay attention to trigger warnings, look those up first.
