Spoiler
The first three novels were re-released together as the Moreau Omnibus by DAW books in 2004. The series is set in the mid-21st century detailing a world after a series of near apocalyptic wars. Moreaus are animal-human hybrids created as soldiers by 21st century governments through genetic engineering. Nohar is introduced in the first novel, Forests of the Night. The son of first-generation tiger hybrids bred for Indian special forces, he has grown up in America as a second-class citizen. He was raised after his mother's death by Mandvi "Manny" Gujerat, a surgeon and moreau mongoose. After spending some time in a moreau youth gang, he worked as a detective in Cleveland, where he helped discover infiltration of Earth's governments by extraterrestrials. Later in the novel Fearful Symmetries he moved to Los Angeles where he was instrumental in uncovering a secret government plot to use an engineered variant of the Ebola virus to exterminate the moreau population.
