Publisher's Summary

In the midst of war, Soren's sister, Eglantine, unwittingly becomes a spy for Kludd, leader of the Pure Ones, a group of evil owls. She is brainwashed by an owl sent by the Pure Ones to infiltrate the Great Ga'Hoole Tree. Her odd behavior eventually attracts attention, and Soren and his friends vow to find out what's wrong with Eglantine. They ultimately learn what happened and help her reverse the effects of the brainwashing. Kludd continues to battle against the Guardians of Ga'Hoole for control of their tree. In the end, Kludd and his forces are defeated, but his conflict with Soren is not yet over.

Good story.

I've noticed that the first book started out clean - no swearing , but each book has subtly got more and more. Starting in the form of bird-language- curse words, now this book introduced "Bloody". It's a shame because otherwise it would have been an ideal science fiction / war series for teens+ appealing to everyone.
