(4) 4-6 Compulsive trash-eater Sven discovers he is a "Tick," a synthetic humanoid created to incubate a deadly super-virus. With his best friend and a girl orphaned by Tick attacks, Sven tries to change his programming before he unwillingly destroys humanity. Goofy-gross humor and a high-stakes sci-fi plot combine for a story with jarring tonal shifts, but genre fans and reluctant readers will be entertained.
