In this singularly funny debut from a literary author who blurs genres, a pet crow battles to preserve humanity from the apocalypse.
S.T., a domesticated crow, enjoys the small things in life, like hanging out with his owner Big Jim, teasing wild crows in Seattle (those fools), and indulging in the best snack that humans have ever created—cheetos.
Subsequently, Big Jim loses his vision, and S.T. begins to sense that something isn't quite right. Big Jim's most tried-and-true cures—from beer carried by beaks to the slobbering adoration of his devoted but dim-witted dog, Dennis—fail to alleviate his crippling illness. S.T. is forced to leave his old life behind and set out into a scary and strange new world with his faithful companion Dennis. There, he learns that the local wildlife is aflutter with tales of a terrifying new predator that is roving Seattle, and that the neighbors are consuming one another. The end of humanity appears to be near, and the sole person trying to preserve it is a foul-mouthed crow whose education in TV watching has given him knowledge of the outside world.
A hilarious, heartfelt, and breathtakingly beautiful adventure through the apocalyptic realm of Hollow Kingdom, where even a frightened crow can rise to become a hero, is offered.
