Critics Review

“The book strikes a wealthy mixed vein of sophisticated psychological chills and monstrous horror.”

“The book strikes a wealthy mixed vein of sophisticated psychological chills and monstrous horror.” * Publishers Weekly *“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 (best-selling and award-winning author of he anthology, Slapboxing with Jesus and four novels, The Ecstatic, Big Machine, The Devil in Silver, and The Changeling, the fantasy-horror novella The Ballad of Black Tom, and the comics series Destroyer and Eve)“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 (best-selling and award-winning writer, Preacher, and writer/co-creator of The Boys)

About The Author

Si Spurrier

Simon “Si” Spurrier writes novels and comics. His work in the latter field stretches from award-winning creator-owned books such as Numbercruncher, Six-Gun Gorilla, and The Spire to projects in the U.S. mainstream like Hellblazer, The Dreaming, and X-Men. It all began with a series of twist-in-the-tail stories for the UK’s beloved 2000AD, which ignited an enduring love for genre fiction. His latest book, Coda, is being published by Boom! Studios at present. His prose works range from the beatnik neurosis-noir of Contract to the occult whodunnit A Serpent Uncoiled via various franchise and genre-transgressing titles. In 2016, he took a foray into experimental fiction with the e-novella Unusual Concentrations: a tale of coffee, crime and overhead conversations.
