Hammer. Volume 5, The bird kingdom
Odin, Jey2025
Book
Stud lands in an apartheid-like Bird Kingdom, where he and his new friend are sentenced to death as a result of prejudice. Are Stud's hammer hands enough to stop a flying army? While uncovering clues to his father's current location, Stud struggles against the Bird Kingdom, a prejudiced society where open-beaked birds with human faces are mocked and called 'defeathered' by closed-beaked birds (who refer to themselves as 'true birds'). Kamaal, an open-beaked bird, decides to help Stud get another kingdom map so he can potentially get home. Unfortunately, in the heart of the Bird Kingdom, where the new map is, the law strictly prohibits human-faced birds and humans from roaming around freely. When King Crow catches Kamaal and Stud, they are sentenced to death. Stud's going to need all his power to stand up for what's right and take down a segregated society-and survive his death sentence.
