Everything about this book was just what I needed. The storytelling is amazing, the characters all very engaging.
I’m Red Rabbit, we follow a large group of people. Sadie, wanted for witchcraft is being hunted by the law. Tom, a witch hunter also looking for her (with his young ward who he calls Rabbit in tow), comes across two men and a widow, who join him.
The widow begins to care care of young Rabbit and the strange bunch begin their journey, coming upon mess upon mess in their way. It seems while the law is looking for the witch, a darker evil is lurking and that means no one is safe.
This varying group of characters make up a broad spectrum of good and evil, each just as interesting. We get a mix between spirit realm and living people and the contrast is so intriguing.
Through the journey, we get some really integral world building and this book brings elements of thriller, horror and paranormal. I really enjoyed this one.

A horror novel set in post civil war Kansas. There are witches, ghosts, & demons. Lawmen, farmers, ranchers and a young girl (or is it a boy?). It's a big cast that can sometimes get confusing as to who we are dealing with.
The dialogue especially can be quite funny, which juxtaposes with the tragedy and horrors seen on the prairie during the pioneer days (starvation, robbery, murder).
Audiobook performance was top notch, John Pirhalla brings the many characters to life.

Witches and ghouls and cowboys, oh my! This fantasy western horror was a fun read. The audiobook was great, especially for the couple of songs that were mixed in.

Interesting story that seems all over the place at times. It kept attention for that and because the author weaved it together so well. I wasn't expecting to like the books much as I did.

This story is one Hell of a fun ride...dusty and bloody ride.
By the end of the adventure that you think will never end I was hoping for a different outcome. Characters quickly unraveled and at first I felt let down but for the story it works. I am hoping the author continues the adventure because I want to see where the characters move on to next.
The way the author deals with ghosts/witches and the afterlife is very interesting and reassuring that life does go on in a different way.
We may not know what the road ahead will be like but come Hell or high water we must continue ever onward
