Raelle Tucker'S Magical World Leap: Tv Genius Spins Debut Novel With Crown

A Shift from Screen to Page

Veteran TV mastermind Raelle Tucker is swapping scripts for manuscripts, making waves with her debut novel 'Obscura', part of a sizzling two-book deal with the publishing giant Crown. Known for her electric storytelling on shows like 'Supernatural' and 'True Blood', Tucker is diving headfirst into the enigmatic world of literature, bringing her unique flair to the pages.

Tucker's 'Obscura' is set to break genre boundaries, described as a low-fantasy tale that promises a taste of the fantastical. Picture this: a sun-drenched island famed for its hedonistic allure, but with a twist at its northern edge – a hidden community of magical beings like unicorns, centaurs, and mermen. When Artemis, the island's pot dealer's daughter, chooses to save a human she finds, her bold move threatens to unravel everything she holds dear.

“Obscura is a story I’ve been trying to figure out how to tell for decades,” Tucker confessed. “It fuses my wild, counterculture childhood with my passion for magical realism.”

A Literary Love Letter

Raelle Tucker's new venture is deeply personal, drawing inspiration from her upbringing in Ibiza surrounded by artists and seekers. 'Obscura' is a heartfelt tribute to the outsiders and dreamers, a magical realism opus that promises to enchant and challenge readers worldwide.

Tucker's deal, brokered by UTA with Crown’s Amy Einhorn, was secured in a high-stakes seven-figure pre-empt for U.S. rights, and the novel has already turned heads across the pond with a UK pre-empt by Jorgie Bain at Penguin Michael Joseph. "I was completely dazzled," Einhorn enthused. "This novel is a ride like no other."

Anticipation Around the Globe

With a lineup of Emmy, Golden Globe, and WGA nominations under her belt, Tucker's leap into novels is met with global anticipation. Her partnership with Crown and the buzz surrounding 'Obscura' suggest we're in for something truly groundbreaking. As we await its release, the world is ready to be swept away by Tucker's spellbinding prose.

Both the U.S. and UK book markets are abuzz, eagerly awaiting 'Obscura', a novel that promises to redefine the fantasy genre while staying true to Tucker's roots in boundary-pushing narratives. Get ready, because Raelle Tucker is about to make literary history.
