War Bunny Chronicles

The War Bunny Chronicles is an epic series created by award-winning California writer, Christopher St. John.

Beginning from a simple premise — What would happen if a bunny fought back? — it has grown to span many species, cultures, languages, and religions. Part naturalistic adventure, part modern-day fable, the War Bunny Chronicles is a fast-paced story about friendship, honor, standing up for yourself, and coming of age. It’s a ripping read for both teens and adults.

Overview

In a post-apocalyptic world where humans are extinct and animals thrive, a yearling rabbit starts to wonder why rabbits must accept their status as prey animals. She asks pointed questions of the warren elders, and gets exiled for it.

Without a warren, she’s enormously vulnerable, but she reaches out to others in desperate straits. Soon, she’s locked in a ferocious battle for survival—and maybe even freedom.

War Bunny, the first book in the War Bunny Chronicles, launched in 2021, garnering multiple awards, enthusiastic press, and highly-engaged reader reviews. It’s available as a paperback, hardback and eBook. The second book in the series, Summerday, launched in Spring 2023. And the third book, City of Oom, in Summer 2024. The series is expected to be five books altogether.

A War Bunny audiobook is in production. And the fourth book is currently in development.
