(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Mark Zug. Turnatt, a wicked megalomaniac hawk, has enslaved all the other birds to feed his dreams of power. The warring cardinals and jays join forces in order to survive and summon the mythic, Christ-like Swordbird to defeat Turnatt. The oft-repeated message of peace is lost in all the bloody duels, but the quest is exciting.
