Dead Rabbit

A Novella

By: Joseph Murnane

Narrated by: Tom Jordan

From the award nominated author of It Eats Your Hunger, comes the story of Adam Bell, a young man who accepts a job at Wild Mountain Wolf Sanctuary, a hidden facility in a secluded corner of the New Mexico desert.

The work is hard but fulfilling, helping Adam come into his own and take hold of his humanity. However, beneath the earth, The Rabbit Man is awakening, a wretched terror hellbent on stripping that humanity away. Plagued by horrific visions and running out of time, he has a choice to make: fight to survive, or become nothing more than a forgotten Dead Rabbit.

Amazing!

I loved this so much! I felt so connected to the wolves and animals. Tom Jordan was amazing as always. I’m going to listen to it again because I loved the story so much! If you stay after the epilogue, you can read why the author wrote the book- it’s worth hearing!

Dead Rabbit

Overcoming obstacles, perseverance, and resilience. Dead Rabbit is a novelette of the human condition. This was a fast, enjoyable, deep in meaning. The narrator was fantastic!

Got me

Murnane’s novella is a well crafted story of pain, struggle, and multi-layered redemption - and a cautionary tale about rabbits well worth paying attention to. :) !!! The narrator is perfect. Dead Rabbit grabbed my undivided attention from start to finish, and it managed to touch my heart in the process.

Profound and insightful

Joseph’s Murnane has such an incredible way of telling a story. Blending deeply personal aspects with fantastical elements makes for the most heart wrenching and horrifying experiences that a person can read. This almost felt like a companion to his first novel, incredibly different, but like friends waving at each other on a highway as they drive in different directions.
The audio narration was top notch as well. I feel like this narrator captures Joseph’s voice perfectly.

Fantastic story!

I almost listened to this in one sitting because it was just that good! Loved the story. The characters seemed so real, and the rabbit man was creepy! This was my first book from this author but definitely won’t be my last!
