In One For Sorrow, Two For Joy, a sort of Watership Down meets The Lord of the Rings, the world of birds is under siege from within - crows and magpies have turned on all their flighted cousins bound to exterminate other species. A lone robin, who has already lost everything to the slaughter, must rally the forces of fowldom and more to stop the evil. It has already garnered a huge flock of readers in the UK where it was originally released, and is sure to capture book hawks in the US.
