Description

Various side stories resemble fables, but the overall plot is surprisingly political: the overbearing king of the forest, a jay named Kapchack, must find some way to keep a sweltering hoard of barbarian pigeons from overrunning his kingdom.
Meanwhile, almost every animal of note beneath his command creates plans to betray him for their own personal gain.
