- The Cloven. by Stein, Garth,author.(CARDINAL)648269; Southworth, Matthew,illustrator.(CARDINAL)596079;
"Garth Stein and Matthew Southworth team up again for the second book in this action-packed coming of age series about a mutant from the Pacific Northwest. In the eagerly anticipated Book Two, Dr. Kenneth Langner, a world-renowned geneticist and creator of the Cloven species, reveals himself to Seattle Stranger reporter Jake Arthur, who continues his in-depth research on the homeless encampment known as "the Jungle." When Langner turns up dead the next morning, Arthur realizes he's into something far more sinister than he realized. Meanwhile, in an effort to evade the para-military that have begun rounding up Cloven, Tuck is taken to Halcyon Meadows, a bizarre retreat of the true insiders--Supreme court justices, ex-presidents, movie stars, rock musicians, health gurus--those who are really in the know and who gather there every summer to worship goats. And to celebrate the existence of the first human/goat hybrid: The Cloven. And that's when things really start to get weird."--Publisher.

Hwa is of the few people in her community to forgo bio-engineered enhancements, but her expertise in the arts of self-defense and her record as a fighter mean that her services are yet in high demand. When the youngest Lynch needs training and protection, the family turns to Hwa. But can even she protect against increasingly intense death threats seemingly coming from another timeline? Meanwhile, a series of interconnected murders threatens the city's stability and heightens the unease of a rig turning over. All signs point to a nearly invisible serial killer, but all of the murders seem to lead right back toHwa's front door. Company Town has never been the safest place to be--but now, the danger is personal" --
