"Lasky's fully realized world is full of traditions based on the actual habits of owls, but
this is still a world in which owls can read and write. Fantasy readers will enjoy the adventure."
Publishers Weekly

"The world building is excellent, with a few intriguing hints that it might take place on a post-Holocaust
Earth, and the characterization is solid. The owls are unique and complex, with conflicting feelings and
just the right mix of seriousness and fun."Voya

It began as a dream, a quest for the Great Ga'Hoole Tree, a mythic place where each night an order of
owls rises to perform noble deeds. There Soren, Gylfie, Twilight, and Digger hope to find inspiration to
fight the evil that dwells in the owl kingdom.

The journey is long and harrowing. When Soren and his friends finally arrive at the Great Ga'Hoole Tree,
they will be tested in ways they never dreamed and face challenges they never imagined. If they can learn
from their leaders and from one another, they will soon become true Ga'Hoolian owlshonest and brave,
wise and true.

4 stars The Journey
This was a heartwarming and moving story. It's one of the most interesting books I've read, that took me on a adventure. I could see it like a movie playing in my head. It's a must.
