Historical horror that chills to the bone, The RUSH is for fans of Dan Simmons’, The Terror mined with a Northwestern Yukon gold rush edge. Answer the call of the wild north and stampede to the Klondike…
ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD. ALL THAT HUNGERS IS NOT HOLY. ALL THAT LIVE ARE NOT ALIVE.
This Hungry Earth Reddens Under Snowclad Hills.
1899, Yukon Territory. A frozen frontier, bloodied and bruised by the last great Gold Rush. But in the lawless wastes to the North, something whispers in the hindbrains of men, drawing them to a blighted valley, where giant spidertracks mark the snow and impossible guns roar in the night.
To Brokehoof, where gold and blood are mined alike. Now, stumbling towards its haunted forests comes a woman gripped not by greed -- but the snarling rage of a mother in search of her child...
From Si Spurrier (Way of X, Hellblazer, The Dreaming) and Nathan C. Gooden (Barbaric Vol. 1: Murderable Offenses, Barbaric Vol.2: Axe to Grind, Brandon Sanderson's Dark One, Vampire: The Masquerade) comes THE RUSH, a dark, lyrical delve into the horror and madness of the wild Yukon.
Collects the entire series. For fans of The Terror, Fortitude, Coda,Call of the Wild, Deadwood, and Moonshine.
"Gritty historical drama meets supernatural horror in this sumptuously drawn tale set during the Yukon Gold Rush." -- Publishers Weekly
"The Rush is a chilling bit of historical horror. Rugged and raw and thoroughly researched. It's got such a wonderfully creepy sense of menace but most of all it's the moving story of a mother searching for her child, that's its beating heart. Wonderful work." -- Victor Lavalle (author and Shirley Jackson Award winner for the fantasy-horror novella, The Ballad of Black Tom, as well as The Changeling, winner of the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel, the Locus Award for Best Horror Novel, and the British Fantasy Award for Best Horror Novel)
"The Rush is a splendidly savage tale of frontier scum and the doom they’ve brought down upon themselves, and the innocents cursed to suffer alongside them. I for one can’t wait to see more." -- Garth Ennis (Eisner Award- winning writer of Preacher, The Boys, Hitman, Punisher, The Darkness)
"Strikes a wealthy mixed vein of sophisticated psychological chills and monstrous horror." -- Publishers Weekly
