La suite des aventures de Soren, la jeune chouette effraie, et ses amis Gylfie, Spéléon et Perce-Neige, aventures qui sont synonymes, pour nos quatre petits héros, de nouvelles embûches, de nouvelles rencontres, de nouveaux enseignements. Kathryn Lasky confirme, dans ce deuxième tome, que c'est tout un univers qu'elle a su créer, riche, complexe, abouti. Car au Grand Arbre de Ga'Hoole, les hiboux et les chouettes sont presque aussi bien organisés que les jeunes sorciers de Poudlard !

The journey of Soren and his band of friends continues in The Journey. (kinda fitting, don't you think?) But things just never seem to be going as well for Soren as he would like. His family is still missing, he knows his brother tried to kill him, he knows he will never see his sister again, and he gets stuck with a creepy instructor. Yea...the great Hoole empire is not quite what Soren was hoping for. Excitement! Adventure! Rescues! That is what this place is all about, isn't it? All ...more
It began as a dream. A quest for the Great Ga'Hoole Tree, a mythical 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.

This installment was just as inthralling as the first. After having survived being blown far off course into the frigid North of the Puffins. Our heroes find their way to the blessed island and the Great Ga'Hoole Tree.
It is here that the adventure really begins, as each member of the 'band' is set apart in different chores that highlight the strengths of each and allow each of the five (for I count Mrs.P) to develop in his or her own right.

Soren, a Barn Owl, and Gylfie, an Elf Owl, are two young owls who have escaped from a militaristic owl training camp, St. Aegolius Academy for Orphaned Owls, and joined with two other orphaned owls – Twilight, a Great Gray owl and Digger, a Burrowing Owl in a quest to find the legendary Ga’Hoolian owls. The Guardians of Ga’Hoole are an order of owls that perform noble deeds and Soren and his friends want to enlist their help in defeating the evil at St. Aggy’s. After finding the island of the ...more
Back to the safety of independent readers lol. These books really are about 4th grade reading level, but the movie is coming out soon and I desperately want to read all of the 15 in the series. This one was easier to follow now that you are familiar with the characters and terms. A lot of good things happen in this one as well . . . not as much death . . . so yay! I found out that Lasky originally was compiling all the information on owls to write a nonfiction biological account of their lives a...more

Not quite as enthralling as the first in the series, but that's because Lasky has a lot of set-up work to do, once her band of young owls arrives at Ga'hoole. In other words, this looks like a series where you really do have to read sequentially. Certainly this volume would be confusing without having read the first, and now that I am on number three, 'The Rescue,' I am seeing that pattern repeated. And as a young reader more tolerant of exposition pointed out to me, there are quite a few imp...more
Penasaran dengan keingin-tahuan tentang perjalanan Soren dan teman-temannya? Buku Kedua ini menggambarkan lebih banyak karakter dan tokoh, serta emosi dan ekspresi manusia yang lebih kompleks dalam karakter kisah burung hantu ini.
Bagaimana perjalanan mereka dalam mencari para pahlawan yang tinggal di Ga'Hoole ini? Meleset dari yang saya duga, ceritanya tidak sesederhana itu, bukan hanya sekedar kebaikan menang atas kejahatan. Tapi masih banyak hal lain, seperti kejahatan itu tidak hanya sa...more

Fun read. Love that the characters are owls, that read, have a community of all types of owls, go to school, etc. The story is a coming of age for Soren and his friends. They have all lost family and friends and have stuck together and helped each other survive until they found this fantastic community of owls. Soren learns a new skill to help support that community as do his friends. He also learns that he must work hard at that new skill in order to build confidence. And much more! This ...more

This book began to drag about half way though--not that it is a particularly challenging read--but this fact made The Journey into a "bathroom reader" for me. Perhaps, the shine had worn off after seeing the movie? The writing stays consistant but educational and character-growth moments are replaced with catty bitching about "chaw" mates and "wet pooper jokes," and there is a lot less conflict or strife. There is bound to be some books in a series that are more dul...more
In The Journey, Soren and Gylfie, who are joined by a Burrowing Owl named Digger and a Great Grey named Twilight, make their way towards what they hope in the legendary island of Ga’Hoole. While the four young owls don’t even know if the island is real, or if the legendary guardian’s are going o be there, they have faith in each other and the hope that they are right.

Not bad. Still good. They escaped from the evil orphanage of those owls, and learned to fly. Soren, Gylfie, Digger, and Twilight now set out to find the Ga'hoole tree, a myth and legend. They eventually find it and later on, they also become the guardians of the tree. That's all for spoilers ^^. The second book of the series, The Journey is a breathtaking reading, a little boring at first, but a good read! Not as good as the first one, but I still gave it five stars because Kathryn Lasky has put...more

Sequel
Soren, Gylfie, Digger and Twilight have become much more than best friends. They are in search of the legendary Great Ga'Hoole Tree together with Mrs. Plithiver who was Soren's blind nest maid snake. They have to let other owls know the dangers of St. Aggies. They feel the need to take up the mantle of Noble Knighthood of Ga'Hoole to protect other owls from a fate that they managed to escape. This not just about the journey to the tree but also the journey of friendship and how they compliment e...more
*Did not finish--Rating based on what I did read* Couldn't get past the first four or five chapters. I was really turned off by one of the sections that was way too violent and gory for a children's book, IMO. (It involved owls killing a bobcat and was utterly horrible!) Furthermore, I despised the way the owls seemed to think certain creatures were "less than" others; perhaps this is rectified later in the book but many of the characters that seemed endearing in the first book star...more
This book is an amazing sequel to the first Guardians of Ga'hoole book, The capture. Ths is a must read book for fans of the series as the band of four owls (Soren, Gylfie, Twilight, and Digger) come in contact with things from a dreamy land, to puffins, to days of hard work alongside owls of all ages, shapes, sizes, and species. Friends join the family and enemies are turned into friends in this enticing book.
In the second installment of 'Guardians of Ga'hoole' comes an epic journey of epic proportions to find the Guardians and tell them of the academy for orphaned owls and the evilness that rules there. It was exciting and fast-paced, and I enjoyed every moment of it. I even learned more facts about owls - so I get to read an exciting book and advance in my research about birds. Talk about a win-win situation!
Really good writing. Really good style. Really good plot. Really good humor. Really good.
But why am i rating it three stars if i thinks it's so good?
You have asked a very good question.
And at the moment, in order to fulfill your question of interest with the most true, sensible, simple, utter way possible would be to simply and cordially state, quite truly:
I AM SO DEAD SICK OF OWLS.

This book tells about Soren's and his friends' journey to the Great Ga'hoole Tree and their adventures when they finally arrive there.
I enjoyed this installment even more than the first one. Not only because there seemed to be more interesting things going on, but also because I felt like the writing had improved a lot. My favourite part was definitely about the Tree, the owls' lives in it, their schooling and the different chaws. Had a certain Harry Potter/Hogwarts vibe to it. ;)

I did not enjoy this children's book as much as the first in the series, but I do want to keep reading them. I think frequently about what the author is hoping the reader will ponder, the discussions in class that the book might generate...bullying, Nazi/neonazi beliefs, caring, class separation, people we know who are like various owls. It is all very interesting. I do find the voice of the narrator somewhat annoying at times.
I bought the four book box set of this series to read to my daughter before she goes to bed. Being a Zack Snyder fan, I figured it couldn't hurt to read the books that his recently directed movie is based on. Halfway through the box set and I can tell you I am struggling my way through these books. The character development is shallow. There are few, what I would consider, significant events. Quite often, I will reflect on a recently read chapter and I can describe almost exactly what happe...more
See my review of book #1 (THE CAPTURE).
Not sure what age group the author was aiming for in her readers but this book is NOT for kids under age 10. They wouldn't be ready for the darkness and fear exhibited in this book. Also the sounds the birds make, all the different types of owls and some of their (complicated) names are confusing and difficult to remember.

Book 2 in the Legend of the Guardians: the owls of Ga'Hoole. Tells of the journey to Ga'Hoole and the band's training to be Guardians. Eglantine is reunited with her brother Soren. Soren and his band, Gyllfie, Digger and Twilight all learn different assignments with the Guardians. Very enjoyable series for 8-12 year old kids. I highly recommend.
This is turning out to be a really good series. The characters are pretty complex and the story is developing at a very interesting pace. There are so many things that are a part of this second book that I'm sure are setting up pieces of the story line to come. I'm anxious to continue and am quite sure I'll go through the whole series. It hasn't had nearly the effect of the Dreamdark series or the Inkworld series but I'm very pleased and it's still quite early. Each of the 15 books here are much...more
I looove the main character, Soren, he's so innocent and sincere and "humane". This is a book that read like a movie. Every scene inside it was so imaginable also memorable. These great birds will teach you a lot about life! The problem is the whole series should be gathered in three volume only, I guess, because this one is too thin!!! (^_^)
The action slows down a little bit with this second book, but it's still a lot of fun to get to know the owls. It sort of reminds me a little of when Harry Potter first goes to his wizardry school...there are lots of characters and locations to discover. Less action, but still a fun read, and gets you interested in the events in the next book.

“We are the owls of the weather chaw.
We take it blistering,
We take it all.
Roiling boiling gusts,
We're the owls with the guts.
For blizzards our gizzards
Dr tremble with joy.
An ice storm, a gale, how we love blinding hail.
We fly forward and backward,
Upside down and flat.
Do we flinch? Do we wail?
Do we skitter or scutter?
No, we yarp one more pellet
And fly straight for the gutter!
Do we screech? Do we scream?
Do we gurgle? Take pause?
Not on your life!
For we are the best
Of the best of the chaws!”
