S.T. is a domesticated crow who enjoys the simple pleasures of life.
He likes hanging out with his owner Big Jim, insulting the wild college
crows of Seattle, and eating delicious human food such as Cheetos.
S.T.'s day started like every other day until one day, Big Jim's eyeball falls out of his head. S.T. tries to do everything to make Big Jim feel better. He tries to feed him food and beer but, nothing
seems to work. After being nearly attacked by Big Jim, S.T. and Dennis
set out to the new world in hopes to find a new home. They discovered
that mankind has succumbed to this deadly virus and is now consuming
each other. With the top predator from the food chain gone, local
wildlife is taking over Seattle along with new dangerous predators. The
human race is becoming extinct and S.T. is determined to do something
about it.
Oh, this book had me going through a
rollercoaster of emotions. At first, it took me a bit longer to get into
the book but, after halfway in I was glued to the book. The novel had
me laughing throughout the book and also rolling my eyes at S.T. (in a
good way). I didn't like that at times the novel didn't seem to be going
anywhere and the author had these long run on lists. I felt like this
took away from the novel. We read this as a buddy read and we had a lot
to talk about. This isn't usually the type of books we would normally read but, I am glad I did read it.
