About this listen

 It began as a dream, a quest for the Great Ga'Hoole Tree, a mythic 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.

The journey is long and harrowing. When Soren and his friends finally arrive at the Great Ga'Hoole Tree, they will be tested in ways they never dreamed and face challenges they never imagined. If they can learn from their leaders and from one another, they will soon become true Ga'Hoolian owls, honest and brave, wise and true.

I am having a jod distinguishing between her voices. They are ALL squeaky and her singing voice is terrible. The story is slow but it is not helped by the poor narration.
Shame because the kids like the story but are confused by the poor voices.

Could they not find someone who could sing

I genuinely had a great time listening to this audiobook, the narrator did a really good job. I have some pretty minor complaints, Gilfies voice was sometimes a touch on the annoying side. It wasn't terrible and didn't put me off listening, it was sometimes just a bit annoying when Gilfie would have a long passage of speaking. Also the songs in this were....interesting to listen to. I can't blame the narrator as I don't think anyone could pull off a crowd of emotionally dead owls singing.

I do have some criticism on some aspects of the plot, there were some extreme conveniences that happened, most can be excused with the fact of it being an unknown world so the author can use the lore to allow these conveniences, feing it in their gizzards was a common one. But a couple were a bit ridiculous, the ending in particular.

Overall I enjoyed it immensely, despite my criticisms and plan to continue on with the series.

Had a good time
