DESCRIPTION:
"Gus and Jeppard together on a whirlwind adventure" according to Codie. Out of The Deep Woods (Sweet Tooth, Vol. 1) is a really freaking weird novel, even for a post apocalyptic, dystopian. Featuring animal/human hybrid children and the world going to crap – I’d hope that would be the only reason animal/human hybrid children exist - after a disease known as the Affliction (ominous right!) killed off billions people. So, a new species is fabricated known as animal-hybrid children. However, these children are hunted, by hun. Prettying interesting, enough to keep going I actually liked this more than I thought I would. I really want to see what is going to happen next. I will be reading book two!.

From Publishers Weekly The latest entry in the postapocalyptic survivalist fantasy stakes has a peculiar sentimental streak in it. Following the death of his Bible-thumping father, the only other person he's ever known, he's rescued from hunters by a hulking, rifle-toting man called Jepperd, who promises to take him to a sanctuary for kids like him (and slaughters the refugees from Clichéd Dialogue University who get in their way en route).

And Gus's dream vision of a cartoon deer (identified as Dandy) telling him to run away, which should be a dramatic peak of this volume, falls flat because Lemire can't pull off his attempted shift away from his baseline style.
