Hollow Kingdom Supply

Description
A finalist for the 2020 Thurber Prize for American Humor! The 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). S.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). But 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. Humanity 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. What could possibly go wrong?
