<p>A missing eye.<br>A broken wing.<br>A stolen country.</p><p>The last job didn't end well.</p><p>Years go by, and scars fade, but memories only fester. For the animals of the Captain's company, survival has meant keeping a low profile, building a new life, and trying to forget the war they lost. But now the Captain's whiskers are twitching at the idea of evening the score.</p><p>PRAISE FOR <i>THE BUILDERS</i></p><p>"A living, breathing world of vivid, winsome characters hellbent on their blaze of glory and as unforgiving as a runaway train carrying all your friends over a cliff. I haven't cared about animals this much since Watership Down." -- Delilah S. Dawson, author of <i>Hit</i> and <i>Wicked as They Come</i></p><p>"Nobody does dark like Polansky. <i>The Builders</i> is <i>Redwall</i> meets <i>Unforgiven</i>, combining the endearing wit of Disney's Robin Hood with all the grit and violence of a spaghetti western." -- Myke Cole, author of the Shadow Ops series</p><p>"If Sam Peckinpah and Brian Jacques had a strange peyote ritual and shared a collective dream, it might look something liek this. Brutish, nasty, short -- much like life -- Polansky's <i>The Builders</i> is also funny, exciting, and extremely original. <i>The Wild Bunch</i> meets <i>Watership Down</i>." -- John Hornor Jacobs, author of <i>The Incorruptibles</i></p>
