The Journey

Recently I started reading "The Capture" by Kathryn Lasky, I posted the beginning part of this summary in the previous blog post. This book is extremely short and the summary in the previous blog post is sufficient to understand it. After finishing it I started reading "The Journey", this book is the second book in its series and is about when Sorren, Gyflie, Twilight and Digger, escape St. Aggies academy for Orphaned Owls, and go in search for the Great Ga'Hoole tree where each night owls go do something good for the world, and do noble deeds. Along the way they find a peculiar burrowing owl named Digger, who has also heard about the legendary tree and wishes to accompany the lot. When they finally reach the Great Ga'Hoole tree, Sorren is enlisted as a fighter under his mentor Ezylrb. Ezylrb helps Sorren become a mature owl, and teaches him how to fight smart, using fire as a weapon (the "harvest" fire by collecting it on twigs from forest fires, kind of a far out concept). But Sorren has dificulty focusing because he wonders what has happened to his sister, and if his brother pushed Egaltine out of the nest like he had to Sorren. That's all I read for now, I might get a different book though this series is extremely weird.
