Pigeon

The Ornis Experiment #1

by Olga Werby

Pigeon is eleven, homeless, and now an orphan. Alone and scared, he seeks to find a new family. But the past he barely remembers comes back to haunt him, endangering his newly-found friends, the Kikkert Family. Fortunately, the Kikkerts want to adopt Pigeon even if he is wanted by strange para-military DNA warriors. As they race through San Francisco to save each other, the true nature of Pigeon's birth is revealed as well as the secret identity of Madam Toad—the matriarch of the Kikkert Family.

What does is mean to be human? What does it take to be a family? Pigeon is willing to risk his life to learn and to love.

Paranormal spy fiction

This fascinating novel deals with real social issues like homelessness, poverty, government sponsored laboratories and aging along with the unreal action of children flying by their own power. The ending is a cliffhanger that makes you want to grab the next book as soon as you can.

Start this compelling family-friendly science fiction rescue EARLY in the day or you, too, will be up WAY past your bedtime.

Can't wait for the next book in the series

Extremely well written, this book pulls you in and will not let go. Great character development unfolds as it is needed without interfering with a fast moving plot. Good guys, bad guys, government plots, amazing Grandmother, homeless people, all come alive.

And the premis for the tale is amazing!

I received the ebook in exchange for an honest review. The first third of the book I liked a little less. I didn't know what to expect and it seemed that it just was about a boy who could fly. Here I thought very wrongly. It is a very intriguing story about science and why regulation can be possible. In the end I really loved the story.
