The House of The Scorpions


thats right its...  The House of The Scorpions
"Matteo Alacran was not born; he was harvested.
his DNA came from El Patron, lord of a country called opium - a strip of poppy fields lying between the United States and what was once called Mexico.  Matt's first cell split and divided inside a petri dish. Then he was placed in the womb of  a cow, where he continued the miraculous journey from embryo to fetus to baby. He is boy, now , but most consider him a monster - except for El Patron.  El Patron loves Matt as he loves himself, because Matt is himself"

that is basically the first half of the book, here's the second.

"As Matt struggles to understand his existence, he is threatened by a sinister cast of characters including El Patron's power hungry family, and he is surrounded by a dangerous army of bodyguards.  escape is the only chance Matt has to survive. but escape from Alacran Estate is no guarantee of freedom, because Matt marked by his difference in ways he doesn't even suspect"

I enjoyed this book allot. the first half was actually not that great but the second half made it one of the best books ever.  I would give this book 9 out of 10 stars.
