This is an unusual tale told by a pet crow named S.T. He and his fellow house pet, a bloodhound named Dennis, get out of the house shortly after noticing something very wrong with their human owner, Big Jim. The eyeball falling out of Big Jim's head was their first clue something wasn't right. What follows is S.T.'s view of the zombie apocalypse currently happening in Seattle. It's only affecting the humans, or Mofo's as S.T. calls them. And although S.T. describes Dennis's intellect to be on par with boiled pudding, the two of them stick together because they are family (or as S.T. puts it: murder). It can get pretty funny and pretty weird. I thought the story was fairly interesting although it tended to go on a bit in places. S.T. is quite a character, though.
