An unforgettable companion to the award-winning dystopian, coming-of-age journey, Little Bird.

Thirty-five years before the events of LITTLE BIRD, VOL. 1: THE FIGHT FOR ELDER'S HOPE, disillusioned mod-tracker Max Weaver's routine hunt for a modified child takes a grisly and unexpected turn. Now, saddled with an unpredictable mod who may be the key to unlocking his missing memories, Max will soon find that he isn’t the only one interested in the child’s unique abilities - and if he wants to know more, it'll cost him everything. In fact, the future may well depend on it.
