Arnela's Reviews > Sweet Tooth: The Deluxe Edition, Book One

It's exactly what I thought it was gunna be and it did not disappoint.

The worlds gone straight to hell after some sort of new plague descended on everyone, and anyone not dead yet has had to make due, except the half human-half animal hybrids, they're basically immune.

Gus is a half human half deer hybrid that's just lost his father and been rescued from [what are essentially] poachers by some really big scary looking guy named Jepperd [weird name but stick with me]. Gus is tired of being lonely and with the promise of somewhere safe to hide from people after kids like him he goes with Jepperd to somewhere called "the preserve".

That's it, that's all I'm giving ya, you want to see how they make it through the wasteland and what horrors lay before them then you gotta read the book.

It's a wonderful look at people doing what ever it takes to survive, even if it's not a necessity being met. What drives people to act in times of turmoil. Who people really are inside when all the rules and laws and consequences are stripped away. This book beautifully paints the american dystonia after the plague has run through and people are on their own.
