Hollow Kingdom - Kira Jane Buxton

Descriere Hollow Kingdom - Kira Jane Buxton

One pet crow fights to save humanity from an apocalypse and the world that follows in this uniquely hilarious debut from a genre-bending literary author. \nThe Secret Life of Pets meets The Walking Dead in this big-hearted, boundlessly beautiful romp through the Apocalypse, where a foul-mouthed crow is humanity's only chance to survive Seattle's zombie problem (Karen Joy Fowler, PEN/Faulkner Award-winning author). \nS.T., a domesticated crow, is a bird of simple pleasures: hanging out with his owner Big Jim, trading insults with Seattle's wild crows (i.e. those idiots), and enjoying the finest food humankind has to offer: Cheetos (R). \nBut when Big Jim's eyeball falls out of his head, S.T. starts to think something's not quite right. His tried-and-true remedies -- from beak-delivered beer to the slobbering affection of Big Jim's loyal but dim-witted dog, Dennis -- fail to cure Big Jim's debilitating malady. S.T. is left with no choice but to abandon his old life and venture out into a wild and frightening new world with his trusty steed Dennis, where he suddenly discovers that the neighbors are devouring one other. Local wildlife is abuzz with rumors of Seattle's dangerous new predators. \n \nHumanity's extinction has seemingly arrived, and the only one determined to save it is a cowardly crow whose only knowledge of the world comes from TV. \nWhat could possibly go wrong? \n\n
