  1. Book review: 'The Wilding' by Benjamin Percy

    It's a relatively simple conceit — the hunting trip as suspense tale.

Benjamin Percy's first novel, "The Wilding," manages to nicely subvert this setup while setting up a tense back-and-forth narrative between those who've taken off and those who've stayed at home.
