Description
The Cloven: Book One stars James Tucker, the most successful Genetically Modified Human Organism ever created. Conceived in a privately financed, top-secret laboratory on Washington state's Vashon Island, Tucker is a cross between a human and a goat - a Cloven. Known to his friends as "Tuck," all he wants is to live a normal life as a university student; everything is going fine, until he shows a girl his hooves...
Moody and mysterious and atmospheric as a fever dream, The Cloven: Book One follows Tuck's breakneck journey across the Pacific Northwest as he searches for his true home out there somewhere. Book One of a raucous, funny, fast-moving, and dynamic series of graphic novels by two bestselling and critically acclaimed storytellers.
The Cloven: Book One features a special full-colour four-page fold-out spread.

The graphic novel blends grim allegory with wry humour, supported by spectacular art that captures the mood and landscape vividly.
