Here in the bustle of cities and towns, humans go about their lives noticing ducks, if at all, only long enough to complain about their leavings or toss them a crumb of bread. Little do they know that behind the colorful plumage and inquisitive quacking, ducks are harboring hopes, dreams, and schemes that rival our own. In this book, a delightful combination of "Watership Down" and "Apocalypse Now," the revolution is beginning. Who will survive as Anatidae Dawns?

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'For too long, we have depended on humans for bread, but no more.Breadcrumbs for all!' With these words, a revolution is born as a group of ducks, tired of suffering the indignation of being treated as a second class species, become masters of their own fate. However, when would-be revolutionaries find themselves , not in a democracy but in an oligarchy, and the upper echelon of the science program holds to its traditions rather than innovation, can their uprising do anything but self-destruct In a brilliant, unique, contemporary homage to the Orwellian tradition, Tony 'I can't believe it's not butter, margerine, or something bad for me' Jeager uses his meticulously imagined duck society to shine a light on scientific and military advancements paired with a cultural shift, that shows the devastation these things can bring. Unlike other allegoric tales in a similar vein, the anthropomorphosisation of these Fowl Play ducks is such that while humans can relate to them, they never completely take on the attributes of humans. They consistently dream, scheme, plan, plot, retreat, advance, and ruffle feathers not as would humans, but as would ducks in this powerful piece of literary fiction suitable for ages 16 and up.
