Publisher Description

In the land of Birddom, a terrible danger is spreading. Magpies and crows, led by the vicious Slyekin and his assassin Traska, have taken control by hunting down and exterminating one gentle species after another. But in the face of slaughter, a brave robin named Kirrick leads the charge against Slyekin. Flying to every corner of Birddom, Kirrick rallies eagles, owls and an assortment of other creatures to resist the menace. Before One for Sorrow, Two for Joy could even land on bookshelves, it was optioned by the Walt Disney Co. for a major motion picture. A classic epic of good versus evil, this rousing fable has been compared to Watership Down and The Lord of the Rings.

"I have not read this book for a while and it was actually my first audio book but I will never forget how completly captured I was in this book from the first word. I never though a book about birds could be so interesting! I loved the flow of the words and the hardship our hero had to face. "

    " I thought that this was a very good book. It was a lot like Watership Down and Tailchaser's Song. I liked the way the small birds interacted with the larger birds like the owls, seabirds, falcons, and eagles. "

    " This is a great book. The main theme seemed to be based off of the ideas of Hitler and the Nazi's. I thought it was very interesting how Woodall used birds to reenact the genocide of the Nazi's. Good fictional book. "

    " It was marked as "Watership Down but with birds" but it doesnt have quite the same depth. And its languages swings between repetative and some times a little dense. Plus it has a rape scene in it, I wasn't expecting that! "

    " This would have been a great story... if it was written by a fifteen year old. The writing is really souless and plodding. I couldn't even make it past twenty pages. "
