I gathered here nine books that feature nature not just as setting but as a protagonist, a living, breathing part of the story in its own right. Books where awe of nature, the beauty of nature, the fear of nature, come into play as central features. Some of these book recommendations are actively climate fiction, about the changes coming to our world; others are fantasy or science fiction or contemporary; but all the books on this list are rooted in the wildness of nature and its vastness and its mysteries.
