この本について

In 1785, Professor Sebastian Grave receives the news he fears most: the terrible Beast of Gevaudan has returned, and the French countryside runs red in its wake. Sebastian knows the Beast. A monster-slayer with centuries of experience, he joined the hunt for the creature twenty years ago and watched it slaughter its way through a long and bloody winter. Even with the help of his indwelling demon, Sarmodel – who takes payment in living hearts – it nearly cost him his life to bring the monster down. Now, two decades later, Sebastian has been recalled to the hunt by Antoine Avenel d’Ocerne, an estranged lover who shares a dark history with the Beast and a terrible secret with Sebastian. Drawn by both the chance to finish the Beast for good and the promise of a reconciliation with Antoine, Sebastian cannot refuse. But Gevaudan is not as he remembers it, and Sebastian’s unfinished business is everywhere he looks. Years of misery have driven the people to desperation, and France teeters on the edge of revolution. Sebastian’s arcane activities – not to mention his demonic counterpart – have also attracted the inquisitorial eye of the French clergy. And the Beast is poised to close his jaws around them all and plunge the continent into war. Debut author Cameron Sullivan tears the heart out of history with this darkly entertaining retelling of the hunt for the Beast of Gevaudan. Lifting the veil on the hidden world behind our own, it reimagines the story of Europe, from Imperial R

  • “The Red Winter is a far reaching tale of love, terror, and the consequences of making deals with beings unknown. A retelling of the tale of the Beast of Gévaudan, one of the original werewolf myths, this book is so much more than just a rehashing of a familiar story. Told in retrospective, there are 3 main storylines where you follow our MC, Professor Sebastian Graves, his own personal demon, Sarmodel, and a succubus contracted to serve him for more than a thousand years (and who tries to murder him every chance she gets), as they attempt to once and for all rid the world of The Beast, a bei…”

  • “Brilliant novel, and for the whole time reading, I was on the edge of my seat, waiting for what happens next (or before, given that the book has 2 timelines in the past). I loved the romance part, to the point that it was very difficult to read the last part knowing that it would inevitably end... Although some characters initially annoyed me, in the end I appreciate all of them and hope that the author will mention them in his new works. I would say the only critique / personal reading preference is the enormous amount of (almost) self-monologues, so if you're really not into that, it may …”

  • “Loved the beginning and ending of this book. The middle dragged a bit though. It is a gory and humorous tale of a man and his demons, of love and violence; adventure and debts to repay. ”
