The Squawk of Power (A Political Fable for Birds Who've Had Enough) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798231780266)

Welcome to the Feathered Republic - where democracy squawks, corruption molts, and every branch is bugged.

The Tree was once a shining beacon of unity, liberty, and wormfare. But now? It's gridlocked, gerrymandered, and ruled by Commander Talon McPlume - a puffed-up hawk with emergency powers, a golden perch, and a beak that never shuts. Backed by spin-doctor parrots, lobbyist vultures, and an owl judiciary that sleeps through subpoenas, Talon runs the nest like a 24/7 news cycle on birdseed steroids.

Inside this avian madhouse, you'll find:

A scroll scandal that makes Watergate look like a spilled birdbath

Ghost Airports funded by invisible budgets and fueled by broken promises

Peacocking senators who filibuster their own speeches

Pigeons demanding postal reforms (but only if stamps come with snacks)

A state media crow named Scrollbeak who interviews rocks and declares them traitors

And Tailgun Scream - the shock-jock falcon screaming "Birds Shouldn't Vote Unless They Pay Nest Tax!"

But not all birds are roosting quietly.

From underground duck networks to bluejay whistleblowers, the flock begins to chirp louder - tired of rigged polls, fake worm reports, and campaign flyers printed on recycled lies. As the great referendum nears, one barkpaper ballot threatens to crack the entire nest:

☐ Let the flock decide

☐ Let the loudest decide

Will true democracy take flight? Or will another loudmouth hawk hijack the nest with memes and megaphones?
