- Ukiah_Oregon abstract "Ukiah Oregon is the hero of an eponymous series of science fiction/adventure novels written by Wen Spencer.As of 2005, the Ukiah Oregon series consists of four novels:Alien Taste (2001) Winner of the Compton Crook AwardTainted Trail (2002)Bitter Waters (2003)Dog Warrior (October 2004)The four novels form a near-continuous series of adventures located, with flashbacks, between June and September 2004.Ukiah Oregon is described in the first novel, Alien Taste, as a Pittsburgh-based private investigator of probable Native American ancestry, apparently aged about 21 years old. He has a photographic memory, but he has no specific memory of the time before he was trapped about eight years earlier as a feral child near the town of Ukiah, Oregon, from which he takes his name, having been raised by a pack of wolves. He has a remarkable ability to track people and sense the details of a subject's DNA, which he attributes to his lupine upbringing. His lack of human contact in his childhood has deprived him of much of the knowledge of how to behave socially, as well as pop culture references.During the course of the first novel it becomes apparent that Ukiah is, in fact, not human—or at least not completely human. When he is severely injured his blood forms into independently operating animals: larger clots form \"blood mice,\" smaller clots might form insects or other animals of appropriate size. This is a defense mechanism that allows cells to live independently if the main body is injured. These animals contain some of his memories, and they will subsequently try to rejoin him to be reabsorbed by his body; failure to reabsorb such a \"blood animal\" results in the loss of that memory. Ukiah can even be killed, but as long as his body is not destroyed (e.g. by burning) he will recover given sufficient time.It is revealed that several centuries ago the invasion force of a hive mind species called the Ontongard arrived in the Solar System with the intention of converting all life on Earth into a copy of itself, via a form of viral infection.One of the Ontongard, Prime, was a mutation who was somehow independent of the hive mind. He rebelled against the Ontongard, sabotaging the invasion mission and ultimately leaving most of the personnel stranded in suspended hibernation in the starship on the surface of Mars.Prime was killed by the surviving Ontongard, Hex, but not before he had artificially inseminated Kicking Deer, a woman of the Umatilla tribe, who gave birth to a boy named Magic Boy (described in flashback in Tainted Trail).Before his death Prime also infected a wolf, Coyote, with his blood, converting Coyote into his \"Get,\" with all his memories and effective immortality via the same \"blood mice\" method that Ukiah has. Over the intervening centuries Coyote has in turn created a number of Gets of his own, and they in their turn have also created Gets. Prime's Gets number about 100 at the time of the stories, and form a group of motorcycle gangs collectively known as \"The Pack.\" Hex, meanwhile, has created large numbers of Ontongard Gets, and the two groups have fought a discreet war ever since their creation.".
