Beware the Wild

"Creepily delicious swamp magic. I loved BEWARE THE WILD something wicked."--Amy Plum, internationally bestselling author of the Revenant trilogy "Unique, haunting, and filled with characters who steal your heart, you'll be just as intrigued by the rural, small-town world that Parker builds as you will by the magic she weaves in the dark of the wild."--Josephine Angelini, internationally bestselling author of the Starcrossed trilogy "This book, much like its dark and enticing swamp, seeps into your soul. And that is a very, very good thing."--Tara Hudson, author of the Hereafter series "Parker has a nice touch with the Southern flavor of Sterling's Louisiana town, steeped in superstition and silence...This engaging debut should enjoy a wide audience."--Kirkus Reviews "A creepy, atmospheric book that will draw readers in...Beware the Wild breathes new life into the teen supernatural genre."--School Library Journal "Parker's assured debut is a creepy southern fairy tale...[with] deeply sympathetic, expressive characters. This vivid swamp magic tale will appeal especially to fans of Brenna Yovanoff and Franny Billingsley."--Booklist "Parker hits all the right notes here, from the oppressively hot but chillingly creepy atmosphere to the slow-burn pacing to the cast of eccentric but believable characters. Fans of Yovanoff's Fiendish and Quinn's Another Little Piece will delight in this folklore- inspired Southern gothic."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Creepily delicious swamp magic.
