Announcing GETHSEMANE by Caitlin R. Kiernan

October 5, 2026

We're delighted to announce Gethsemane by Caitlín R. Kiernan, an illustrated Dancy Flammarion novelette, with a wraparound dust jacket and interior illustrations by Ted Naifeh.’

Gethsemane is already at the printer. 

***

Since her first appearance in the novel Threshold (2001), Dancy Flammarion has proven herself one of Caitlín R. Kiernan’s most enduring and popular (and long-suffering characters). Subterranean Press released the first collection of Dancy short stories—Alabaster—in 2006, followed by a second—Comes a Pale Rider—in 2020. In the interim, there was a three-volume Dark Horse Comics graphic novel series, also called Alabaster, which won a Bram Stoker Award in 2013.

Kiernan’s first Dancy story in seven years, “Gethsemane” goes south to the cane fields and swamps of the Georgia-Florida line, pitting a weary Dancy Flammarion against ancient horrors dragged from the sea’s black abyss and now lurking in an abandoned alligator farm. Offering up sirens, seagulls, pork rinds, and a haunted woman determined Dancy will help rid her town of monsters, “Gethsemane” reunites readers with the world of Kiernan’s “pale rider.”

Limited: 600 signed numbered hardcover copies: $40
