(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Dave McKean. In this cat fantasy, Varjak struggles to survive among cat street gangs. In his dreams, he finds himself in Mesopotamia, where his progenitor instructs him in the lost skills of the Way of Jalal, a martial art-like practice. Two-color illustrations provide the edgy feel of a graphic novel. Readers interested in graphic novels or martial arts may find this book right up their alley.
