Follow along as Bernadette, a young budgerigar, explores the starship MSS Venture with her Florivan best friend, Cobalt Mereday, and does her best to convince the scientist who hatched her that she is, in fact, much more than an ordinary little bird.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDr. Ariadne Salzar-Newman is NOT a mad scientist.\u003cp\u003eShe is a scientist-and a brilliant one at that-but she's hardly mad. According to MSS Venture's resident psychologist, the Florivan Elder Navy Irleeim, she's only \"amusingly eccentric, with a bit more of a fascination with the Strange than is healthy for a human.\" Navy would know, too, considering how long they've been officially observing her and occasionally assisting with her experiments. If their Navigator's wife has to be set on studying things that could kill her, they'd rather be involved from the beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e​\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Salzar-Newman's latest endeavor towards mitigating the dangers of starships traveling via the so-called \"Quantum Space shortcut\" is not one Navy would ordinarily have approved. Bottled miasmas are one thing; eggs are another entirely. Still, having taken one of their Florivan patients under her wing as a part-time assistant, she's safer than usual this time. Working with her will be good for Cobalt Mereday-if only because her unique brand of oddity seems to be the only thing capable of helping them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e​\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEven Dr. Salzar-Newman has no reason to suspect just how much of an effect this particular project will have on her family and her prot?g?, nor how far-reaching the consequences will be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e​\u003c\/p\u003eSomething new is about to hatch...\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katie Silverwings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1959922173\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781959922179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peptalk Productions, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.38d","brand":"Katie Silverwings","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110930141439,"sku":"9781959922179","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3935326a-3b59-47fa-bf14-5aa05a42a709.jpg?v=1725470180","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/feathered-friendship-katie-silverwings-9781959922179","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
