The Shattering (Guardians of Ga'hoole, Book 5) Review

I really liked the book. Although it was about Eglantine, and less about everyone else in the Great Ga'Hoole Tree, it was a nice change. Soren is the main character and most readers forget many other owls in the tree have lives. Eglantine is quite mean to Primrose and realizes that something is terribly wrong with herself as she has a weird dream telling her to go to the Beaks and find her mum. Poor Primrose is replaced with a corny owl named Ginger. This book is different and well worth reading and we get some new perspectives. Oh, and they have the pictures of Soren, Gylfie, Twilight, Digger, Ruby, Ginger, Primrose and Barran in the back and front of the book! I love the pictures!!!

In the fifth book in this series, the war between an evil group led by Soren's brother, Kludd, and the owls of the Great Ga'Hoole Tree rages on.

In the midst of war, Eglantine unwittingly becomes a spy for Kludd, leader of the Pure Ones (a group of evil owls). She is brainwashed by an owl sent by the Pure Ones to infiltrate the Great Ga'Hoole Tree. Her odd behavior eventually attracts attention, and Soren and his friends vow to find out what's wrong with Eglantine. They ultimately learn what happened and help her reverse the effects of the brainwashing.

Kludd continues to battle against the Guardians of Ga'Hoole for control of their tree. In the end, Kludd and his forces are defeated. But his conflict with Soren is not yet over.

The Coming of Hoole (Guardians of Ga'hoole, Book 10) Review

In this tenth installment of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series, Soren and Coryn, this time joined by the rest of the Band, open the second of the three Legends of Ga'Hoole and read on. The ancient volume, titled The Coming of Hoole, picks up where The First Collier left off: the hatching of that noble prince, Hoole.
Little Hoole starts out his life like any owlet: innocent, naive, and occasionally loud-mouthed. However, he knows nothing about his true identity, the heir of good King H'rath. Grank and Theo, his caretakers, know that the truth cannot be revealed to the young prince until it is safe to do so. For Hoole's protection, they continue to live in exile on an island in the Bitter Sea, far from owls that would kill the prince and end the kingly line.
Meanwhile, the hagsfiend Ygryk and her haggish mate, the Great Horned Owl Pleek, crave Hoole more than ever to be their own chick since they can't have one themselves. So when Ygryk finds Hoole and tries to lure him away, Grank and Theo (along with their new friend Phineas) take him to Beyond the Beyond.
Ultimately, Hoole will have to face off in battle against the hagsfiends and the traitorous Lord Arrin, and realize his destiny. Only then can he retrieve the Ember from the Sacred Volcanoes - and reclaim his father's throne.
If you're a series fan, you won't want to miss The Coming of Hoole!
