Sweet Tooth, book 1: Out of the Deep Woods
Jeff Lemire2010

A decade ago the Affliction raged like a forest fire, killing billions, and the only children born since are a new breed of human/animal hybrid. Gus, is one of these endangered children, a boy with a sweet soul, a sweeter tooth -and the features of a deer.
But kids like Gus have a price on their heads. When vicious hunters descend on his isolated forest home, a mysterious and violent man called Jepperd rescues Gus. The hulking drifter promises to lead Gus to "The Preserve", a fabled safe-haven for hybrid children.
As the two cross this dangerous new American frontier, will Jepperd corrupt "Sweet Tooth", as the killer has nicknamed him, or will it be Gus's heart that changes Jepperd ?
