Aria is a seasoned birder on the brink of a new discovery. After sighting a flock of rare birds during a great migration, she recognizes each as an extinct species. Even more curious are the physical shifts in Aria’s body as the flock’s ghostly birdsongs awaken an avian adaptation that transforms her life forever. The next evolution of Truth Future Bachman’s Shapeshifters saga, following Luna and the Starbodies (Powerhouse, 2022), Skyward: An Endling Elegy is a soaring musical vision for the first – and last – of our kind.
