Wind-voice the half-dove, formerly enslaved, is now free, and Maldeor, the one-winged archaeopteryx, hungers for supreme power. Can Wind-voice and his valiant companions—Ewingerale, the woodpecker scribe; Stormac, the myna warrior; and Fleydur, the musician eagle—save the future of their world?

It is a prequel to Swordbird.
