Solaris to publish horror western Red Rabbit for the UK
14th May 2024
Solaris is delighted to announce the acquisition of Red Rabbit by Alex Grecian for the UK.
A rip-roaring horror romp for fans of Stephen Graham Jones and The Magnificent Seven, Red Rabbit follows an unlikely group racing along the drought-stricken plains in a stolen stagecoach in pursuit of a witch named Sadie Grace. As their posse grows, so too does the danger, but this hodgepodge crew are determined to get the bounty on Sadie’s head—or die trying.
UK/BC Rights (excluding Canada) were acquired by Chiara Mestieri from Caspian Dennis at Abner Stein, in association with The Gernert Company
Red Rabbit will be released in September 2024. Cover design by Sam Gretton.
Author Alex Grecian on the acquisition:
“I’m both proud and incredibly delighted to join Solaris in bringing Red Rabbit to a new readership.”
Acquiring Editor Chiara Mestieri:
“I am so thrilled to be bringing Red Rabbit to the UK! Alex blends the horror and Western genres so cleverly, and I couldn’t tear myself away from the cracking pace and epic scope of its narrative, its quick-witted characters, and the delightfully folky horrors they encounter along the journey. I can’t wait for new readers to saddle up for the ride.”
Alex Grecian is the New York Times bestselling author of The Yard and its sequels The Black Country, The Devil’s Workshop, The Harvest Man, and Lost and Gone Forever, as well as the contemporary thriller The Saint of Wolves and Butchers, and the ebook The Blue Girl. He has also written multiple award-winning graphic novels, including Proof and Rasputin.
