What to expect

Bloomsbury presents The Wild Dark by Katherine Harbour, read by Shakira Shute.

One last heist. One last chance at revenge.

Once an outcast and an orphan, Evie Wilder now finds herself as the new leader of the Dark Fable. But the secret group of globetrotting thieves is not the prestigious magical crew it once was, after suffering losses in their last heist. Evie must plan their next series of thefts carefully, to keep them alive until they can regain their strength and reharness the demons that control their unique magic.

But the Basilisk--the most ruthless criminal in their dark world--is set on destroying the Dark Fable. Only one of them can win, and Evie’s best chance requires a dangerous alliance between an arch enemy and a former friend . . .

In this heart-pounding finale, loyalties are tested, and no one is safe as the Dark Fable plans their biggest heist yet.

Critics Review

Overflowing with lush description, suspense, and romantic tension.
SLJ
Fast-moving and twisty. . . . This YA fantasy is a great read for fans of magical heists and found family.
Booklist, on THE DARK FABLE
Witty dialogue, immersive world building, original magic systems, and emotionally rich characters culminate in a tale that celebrates the intimacy of being seen and accepted.
