Forget everything you ever knew about unicorns. The fluffy, sparkly, friendly “horses” so popular the world over don’t exist. Real unicorns are killers. Beasts the size of elephants, with cloven hooves that shake the earth, hides impervious to bullets, and horns that contain a deadly poison, unicorns can outrun a sports car and smell a human from a mile away. And they can only be killed by virgin warriors descended from Alexander the Great. Sixteen-year-old Astrid Llewelyn has grown up with her mom Lilith’s tall tales about unicorns and their exalted family heritage, but figures her mom’s crazy. But the scary stories her mom told her about the monsters in her formative years left her with a firm phobia about unicorns, even the cutesy kind popular with young girls. But when one of the monsters attacks her boyfriend in the woods—thereby ruining any chance of him taking her to prom—Astrid finds herself headed to Rome to train as a unicorn hunter. “As swift and sure-footed as a killer unicorn, Rampant weaves a vibrant new mythology from venerable threads.”—Scott Westerfeld, bestselling author of the Uglies series

Once upon a time, in a world otherwise much like our own, there is only one source of evil, torment and crime in the entire world. He is known as The Only Criminal. By extension, he is also the only source of interesting information in print and televisual news. All movies, all TV shows, are made about him. He is also responsible for all the recorded music in the world, brought into being under the influence of illegal drugs. The Only Criminal is also the only source of fascination for a brilliant young psychologist, Dr. Paul Vaguely – a man driven by his obsession with this one subject, which fills him with fear and fuels his boundless curiosity and imagination. The good Dr. Vaguely is developing a new branch of psychiatric care, specializing in the treatment of patients whose lives were touched by the peril and plunder of The Only Criminal, but his plans are upset by two things: the discovery of the only known survivor of an Only Criminal attack to have actually seen him and lived; and The Only Criminal’s most fiendish coup of all, which steers the world at large toward a collective nervous breakdown. Decades in preparation, The Only Criminal is many things: a Kafkaesque comic book on the theme of Original Sin; a never-more-relevant love story between two isolated characters fearful of risking human contact; even a fanciful alternative history of how our world may have ended up in such a catastrophic mess. Dark, humorous, erotic and charged with danger, The Only Criminal may be its author’s definitive journey into the depths of dark obsession. “Compulsively, enviably superb. THE ONLY CRIMINAL is a marvel! Tim Lucas brilliantly weaves wit, romance and glorious wisdoms with maestro cool.” - R.C. Matheson (Dystopia) “It’s brilliant… one of the most interesting and entertaining things I’ve read! - Kelley Jones, (Batman, The Sandman) “This is a wonderful, droll, witty book—a real joy for people with eclectic cinematic and reading tastes. A bedtime book to savor, just like one of the hero’s vanilla-flavored cigarettes.” - Joan Hawkins (Cutting Edge: Art Horror & the Horrific Avant-Garde)
