Overview

MEET CHIRPS: THE OUTCAST WHO BECAME KING OF THE BIRDS! From the boundless imagination of Lawrence Lieber - co-creator of Iron Man, Ant-Man, Thor and Groot - comes a new prose novel: CHIRPS! Part amazing fantasy, part family dynasty saga, part fast-moving action thriller, Chirps is the culmination of Lieber's many decades as a supreme storyteller, told in settings that range from the canyons of New York to the Australian Outback. In Chirps, Lieber tells the tale of a genetically advanced bird (a mutant, if you will) - a budgie parakeet - who develops human-level intelligence and speech... ... which brings him to the startled attention of a suspicious world. People wonder: Is Chirps a benevolent miracle of nature-or a deadly weapon disguised in colorful plumage? Is the only way to find out to capture and dissect him? You have never met a hero like Chirps ... and you have never read a novel like Chirps.
