Oryx And Crake

By the author of The Handmaid's Tale and Alias GracePigs might not fly but they are strangely altered. So, for that matter, are wolves and racoons.

And the green-eyed Children of Crake are, for some reason, his responsibility. The first novel in the MaddAdam trilogy, soon to be a major TV series.
