Red Rabbit
Alex Grecian
2023 · 455 pages · Historical fiction
How it reads
Red Rabbit is historical fiction (historical dark fantasy, specifically), and its dominant mood is adventurous. It's driven by momentum, discovery and getting into trouble. It moves fast: plot-driven and hard to put down, the kind of book that carries you along even when you're tired.
It's set in a rural setting, in the historical past, told in the third person across several viewpoints. Its central concerns are survival, justice and friendship. In weight it sits in the middle: substantial without being heavy going.
It opens a series. The ending resolves happily. At 455 pages it's an ordinary novel's length. It's moderately known: read by plenty of people, but not a household name.
Pick it up if…
- you're in the mood for something adventurous
- you want a book that pulls you through
- you want to be sure it ends well
Maybe not if…
- you need something cosy or melancholy
- you want dense, lingering prose
