Reading and Slide Show for Into the Jungle, Appalachian Mountain Club’s Highland Center, June 29, 7:30pm
Please join me at the beautiful Appalachian Mountain Club’s Highland Center in Crawford Notch for a wild night in the rainforest! Just try surviving the dinner-plate sized spiders, limo-length anacondas, and shamans who, frankly, have it out for you! I’ll give a brief reading then a slide show from my month-long research trip to the Peruvian Amazon featuring the terrors and wonders of the most biodiverse place on earth – the Amazon rainforest.
Publishers Weekly names Into the Jungle as one of its “Big Summer Books” and gives it a starred review, calling it a “ferocious fever dream of a thriller…an alternately terrifying and exhilarating tale…”
Kirkus Reviews says: “A death-defying Bolivian adventure in the primordial forest…The setting of Ferencik’s second female-driven adventure thriller is hair-raisingly vivid, replete with tarantulas, piranhas, jaguars, and electric eels….(this novel is) The closest thing to an actual hell ride you’ll ever experience (one hopes.) Thrilling, bloody, and ferocious.”
