Dr. Singh arrives in Alaska and uncovers the origins of Gus and the hybrid children and the cause of the plague that decimated the world. And as Gus and Jepperd finally arrive in Alaska and come face to face with the truth, the militia continues to bear down on them. Their deadliest battle is still ahead.

Review by Library Journal Review

Writer and artist Lemire's (The Underwater Welder) postapocalyptic series about humanity's twilight and the rise of human/animal hybrids reaches its poignant conclusion in this sixth volume. Main characters Gus, a boy with antlers, and Jepperd, his human guardian, head to Alaska along with the rest of their human and hybrid party. There the secret to the hybrid plague waits in a remote research facility. However, it will also be the site of the final battle between them and the militia hunting them. Verdict This emotionally riveting work is highly recommended for libraries with broader graphic novel collections and essential to those with selected earlier volumes. Lemire's series also serves as a read-alike for both the "Y: The Last Man" and "The Walking Dead" series.-Terry Bosky, Madison, WI (c) Copyright 2013.
