Bullied and blackballed, eighteen-year-old Stephanie Zeller lives a lonesome life of misery in the hopeless world of Houston, Texas. She daydreams of boyfriends, popularity, and love without a clue how to get them. For who could love a girl so ugly, nerdy, and boring? If only Stephanie were beautiful, everything would be different. Boys would desire her, girls would fight for her friendship, and she'd have a life worth living. But that's only a dream, so far out of reach she can barely imagine it... On a Friday night in a fit of loneliness, Stephanie searches for someone who can see her inner beauty, and in a dimly lit club she meets a mysterious man named Adrian who invites her to a party that could change her life... Stephanie's greatest desire is waiting to take hold of her, transform her, and make her dreams a reality... but it will come at a cost so great she may never recover. Part Carrie and part The Hellbound Heart, Feral Beauty is a coming-of-age horror tale that Stephen King and Clive Barker fans can't afford to miss-particularly if you're one who keeps a light on when darkness falls.
