I read this before going to sleep the other night and it was an awesome bedtime story. This looks like the beginning of an amazing series, and a must-read for fans of The Walking Dead. In a post-apocalyptic world, after some kind of mysterious "accident" seven years ago, everyone has become infected with what appears to be a consumption-like disease which is killing everyone off. The only ones who are immune to the sickness are the children born after the accident, hybrids of humans and animals. Now, humans have been killing off the hybrids, capturing and studying them to figure out a cure or antidote. Gus ("Sweet Tooth") is one such hybrid, and after his father finally succumbs to the sickness, he is left completely alone and unprepared to face what lies outside of the woods. There are some really interesting characters here and an intriguing plot. I'm looking forward to the next issue!
Don't Panic - Megan's BookLikes
I really like books. Some favorites: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (duh), Pride & Prejudice, The Martian Chronicles, True Grit, The Idiot, Daughter of Smoke & Bone, and so on. I tend to be pretty eclectic in my reading habits. I definitely favor sci-fi & fantasy, classic literature, YA fiction, memoirs, and non-fiction (usually art-, craft-, or history- related). I might have a book hoarding problem, but that's okay. I don't mind.
