SYNOPSIS
Lucas is dismayed when his brother Kit is chosen to take part in the Hunt: a chase that takes place every seven years and acts as a sacrifice to the Rider and his Wife, ensuring a plentiful harvest, at least that year. Determined to save his brother, all he has left, Lucas hatches a plan to save Kit and accompany him in his struggle to survive—setting the scene for a race through a post-apocalyptic landscape filled with more danger than either boy could ever imagine. The Rider, The Ride, The Rich Man’s Wife is a thrilling, post-apocalyptic chase, marrying Fairy Tale, Western and Adventure. Hang on tight!
“Wonderfully textured, and both chilling and heartening in equal measure.”
—Mike Brooks, author of The God-King Chronicles
“A beautiful fever-dream of a story, about family, friend-ship, and fear.”
—Laura Anne Gilman, award-winning author of the Devil’s West series
“Premee Mohamed has written a story that is both harrowing and hopeful, and rich with emotional depth. It will linger with you long after you have finished reading, and I highly recommend it.”
—Kat Howard, Alex Award-winning author of An Unkindness of Magicians
