After publishing several novels through Pan Macmillan and St. Martin's Press, Nevill chose to self-publish his 2019 novel, The Reddening. Nevill stated that his reasons were both financial and creative, as he wanted more freedom in how he could market and package his works.[5] The novel was published under his imprint, Ritual Limited, which he created in 2016.[6]
