About the Books The series begins with The Capture , introducing Soren, a young barn owl snatched from his family's nest and delivered to the sinister St Aegolius Academy for Orphaned Owls. Determined to escape, Soren and his fellow captives journey in search of the legendary Great Ga'Hoole Tree, home to the noble owls sworn to protect their kind. In The Journey , the young owls press on through danger in pursuit of the tree and its heroes, while The Rescue sees the group facing even greater threats as they safeguard the owl kingdom. The stakes rise in The Siege , as Soren's own brother Kludd, now a masked and vengeful warrior, leads a brutal assault on the Great Ga'Hoole Tree. Finally, The Shattering introduces a darker threat when Soren's sister Eglantine falls under the spell of a strange, dangerous nightly dream, placing the tree in peril once again.
