SPECIES
Beautiful, blond, and deadly, she is part alien and part human, a top-secret government experiment scheduled to be destroyed. But she escaped and—driven by powers not even she understands and an instinct she cannot control—she descends on Los Angeles with a single purpose: to mate and reproduce.
Now a special team of uniquely talented individuals has been assembled to stop her. The only problem is that their quarry is like nothing they’ve ever encountered, and all they have to go on is a growing trail of bodies and the knowledge that time is running out. For if they don’t catch her before she reproduces, the planet will be seeded with the spawn of an unknown species—a species genetically superior to our own and with no known predators . . .
FOR THREE MILLION YEARS. THE HUMAN RACE HAS BEEN AT THE TOP OF THE EVOLUTIONARY LADDER.

Squire Terence and Sir Gawain are off questing again, but this time their journey is overshadowed by their ultimate destination: Gawain is to meet up with the Green Knight in a contest that could easily lead to Gawain's death. Along the way the two have a slew of hair-raising adventures and encounter the usual odd assortment of characters, including the plucky Lady Eileen. Sparks instantly fly between Terence and Eileen as she joins the squire and his knight on their travels. As they weave their way between the world of men and the Other World, Gawain and Terence discover much about themselves. The Squire, His Knight, and His Lady is the sequel to Gerald Morris's debut book, The Squire's Tale, about which the Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books raved, "This Arthurian road trip will have readers wondering why there aren't more books like this one and hoping that Morris will do it again." And so he has. Views: 49
