Customer Reviews

I love this series!

The Guardians of Ga'Hoole series is well-written, has an interesting plot, fantastic characters, true facts about the different owl species, and more! I love owls and this series helped that interest grow back when I was in middle school. Now, as an adult, I finally have the money to buy the books and re-read them all. In the next few years, my niece will be old enough to start reading them too!

3 words, Shattering is awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Shattering was my 4th favorite book in the whole seris. Kathryn Lasky is my favorite writer. After reading the shattering, Eglantine became one of my favorite charactors.

GREAT BOOK!!!!

Look, i don't care what other people sya i realy love this book im on the 5th book rite now and i love the sireis. i thought the 1st book was amazing. I LOVE THESE BOOOOOOKS!!!!!!!!!!! Man one person said " it doesent matter if your a kid or adult everyone will like this book" well i agree with that person and i think people should read this book but these books are amazing and so far im enjoying the 5th. I think that learn ing more about Eglantine is is good because she was introduced in the 2nd book and we dont know what happend to Eglantine or whatever! its a nice change i think the auther did a great job with all these books. So i wanna say a few more things about the book, 1.Great for all ages 2.funny and exciting 3.no matter if its on Eglantine or SOREN, DIGGER, GYLFIE, or TWIGHLITE its a nice book. 4. last thing i wanna say is age, DONT MATTER read it any way great for learning about owls, there habbits, or whatever, great book! NICE JOB: KATHRYN LASKY Also im 14 and i love this book!!!!

Another GREAT Book in The Gaurdians of GaHoole

I have loved every single Gaurdians of GaHoole book, and if your like me you should love this book also. I highly recomend this book to anybody reading this review. Any ways the book is about mainly Eglantine. She gets a new friend named Ginger who was formerly a Pure One. Throughout the book Eglantine has nightmares. These nightmares tell her that her parents are still alive and living in The Beaks. To find out what happens order this book and read. P.S. I can't wait until the seventh book comes out!

Another great book for Guardians of Ga'Hoole

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!!!

It's the best!

This was the best book in the series yet! I learned a lot about owls. It was really creative and It should win an award. If you want to read a good book read it!
