Beware the Wild
Author(s): Natalie C. Parker
Review(s):
“Creepily delicious swamp magic. I loved BEWARE THE WILD something wicked.”
“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.”
“This book, much like its dark and enticing swamp, seeps into your soul. And that is a very, very good thing.”
“Brimming with mystery, passion, and dark enchantments, BEWARE THE WILD is Southern Gothic at its most beguiling.”
“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.”
“A creepy, atmospheric book that will draw readers in...Beware the Wild breathes new life into the teen supernatural genre.”
“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.”
“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.”

Southern Gothic gets a whole new twist in Beware the Wild, now in paperback. Sure to appeal to fans of the bestselling Beautiful Creatures series, New York Times bestselling author Kiersten White called Beware the Wild "American myth at its very best."
The swamp in Sterling's small Louisiana town proves to have a power over its inhabitants when her brother disappears and no one but Sterling even remembers that he existed. Now Sterling, with the help of brooding loner Heath, who's had his own creepy experience with the swamp, must fight back and reclaim what—and who—the swamp has taken.
Beware the Wild is a riveting and atmospheric page-turner readers will want to devour. And don't miss Behold the Bones, a companion to Beware the Wild!
