Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
In the midst of war, 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.

My sons (8 years old and almost 10) have both really enjoyed this whole series. We all like reading together at night still, even though they are now obviously reading fine on their own. We have had a hard time finding books after devouring all of Harry Potter this past year, and these have become our subsequent favorites. The characters are well developed and engaging, and the kids--and sometimes me, too--laugh out loud at the taunts of Twilight. I also like that the themes underneath this have led us to discussions on history, racism, and geography. I've recommended this for our school, and thanked the librarians for pointing it out to our family.

My 10 year old son loves this book (and the other dozen or so in the series).

This was an amazing book. A new owl named Ginger (who really works for the pure ones) who is in Eglantine's hollow puts flecks (dangerous bits of iron that can destroy an owls mind and still there gizzard)in Eglantines bed, shattering her mind and stopping her gizzard. Many things happen because of this, including Eglantine slipping away regularly to mirror lakes.But Eglantine soon relizes what is happening, and tries to fix it. And Eglantines friend Primrose also relizes what is going on. All these events lead to a fight with Nyra, Metalbeak's(Kludd's) evil mate, followed by a full fledged battle between those who went looking when Eglantine and Primrose went missing, and a large Battallion Headed by Nyra's Elite forces.An amazing book, with really shows you to be careful who your friends are.
P.S.wether or not youv'e read the other books, if you don't understand what I said, reread.

I already said so but the # of pages as well as the ratings are going down
down
down. How could Eglantine be so stupid? And how could she be friends with Ginger? Stupid. And its the shortest book in the series. In every book weird new owl words are made up and the plot in this one jumps/flies all over the place. I wouldnt recommend it but the only way to know its that bad is to read it.

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.
