The sky itself is full of wildlife that rejects her as one of their own, and also full of technology-satellites and drones and other detritus of the human civilization below that has all but destroyed itself. But she cannot just soar in peace above the earth. Flying through tunnels, dodging bullets, and changing her colors and patterning to avoid capture, the Strange Bird manages to escape. But now the lab in which she was created is under siege and the scientists have turned on their animal creations. ![]() The Strange Bird is a new kind of creature, built in a laboratory-she is part bird, part human, part many other things. The Strange Bird-from New York Times bestselling novelist Jeff VanderMeer-expands and weaves deeply into the world of his "thorough marvel"* of a novel, Borne. 109 clean, unmarked, tight pages very light shelf and corner wear on cover ![]()
