Join bestselling author Amy Stewart as she takes on Mother Nature’s most appalling creations. Her new book, Wicked Plants, is an A to Z of plants that kill, maim, intoxicate, and otherwise offend. Drawing on history, medicine, science, and legend, Stewart presents tales of bloodcurdling botany that will entertain, alarm, and enlighten even the most intrepid gardeners and nature lovers. Wicked Plants will be published in May 2009 from Algonquin Books. But you can watch the video now–if you dare. Find out more at www.wickedplants.com

I bought this book yesterday in Williamsburg and just finished reading it. Fantastic and fascinating, loved every page of it.
Well done, Amy! Who knew Nature was so merciless? The book is on top of my Christmas must-haves, after finally tracking it down at the library.
Awesome video! So need-to-know!
