ANIMALStells the chilling tale of a family caught at the heart of a terrifying and transformative epidemic, in an astonishing fusion of beautiful writing and pure horror at its finest.Teddy has always been a special child. Frightened by other children, described as imaginative by teachers, homeschooled by his mother. His closest friend was his father, until he left them for another man.Now, his closest friends are the family pets the greyhounds his mother used to breed for racing the threehundredpound family pig Charity and her best friend, a duck and the stray cat he slowly befriended Little One.His life has never been idyllic, but it was his, until he and his mother are struck down with an inexplicable fever. Over the course of the hot droughtstricken Oxfordshire summer, all of their animals fall sick. Whatever the mystery illness is, its targeting animals... and its not long before the animals start to target them...Praise for Geoff Ryman"One of our finest writers."Lisa Tuttle in the Guardian"Ryman challenges his readers as he always has, with an enormous, defiant, heart" Paul Cornell, Hugo Award shortlisted author and screenwriter"Ryman offers an exceptional journey into the heart of human experience" Justina Robson, award nominated author
