Guardians of Ga'Hoole is a children's fictional book series written by Kathryn Lasky and illustrated by Richard Cowdrey. Most of the main characters are owls, and the series is a cross between animal fiction such as Watership Down and epic fantasy. It was followed by multiple spinoffs and tie-in books.The protagonist for the majority of the books is Soren, a young barn owl. He is pushed out of his nest by his malicious older brother Kludd and then kidnapped by owl scouts from a mysterious institution called St. Aggie's Academy. He soon makes friends with an elf owl named Gylfie and together they resist brainwashing by the St. Aggie's owls. Soren and Gylfie draw on the legends of an order of noble owls called the Guardians of Ga'Hoole for inspiration. They eventually escape, but upon discovering that their families have disappeared while they were imprisoned in St. Aggie's, they decide to search for the legendary Guardians. Soren and Gylfie are joined by Twilight, a great grey owl, and Digger, a burrowing owl. All four of them, each of their lives impacted by St. Aggie's, form "The Band" and join the Ga'Hoolian owls.Subsequent books deal with The Band's education and training in Ga'Hoole and also the rise of a group even more dangerous than St. Aggie's called the Pure Ones. The Pure Ones believe in the superiority of Barn Owls above all other owl species.The Film of the Book, Legend Of The Guardians The Owls Of Ga Hoole, was released in September 24, 2010, by Zack Snyder and the guys who did Happy Feet.This continuity consists of: Guardians of Ga'Hoole (2003-2013) Main series: #1: The Capture (2003); 2: The Journey (2003); 3: The Rescue (2004); 4: The Siege (2004); 5: The Shattering (2004); 6: The Burning (2005); 7: The Hatchling (2005); 8: The Outcast (2005); 9: The First Collier (2006); 10: The Coming of Hoole (2006); 11: To Be a King (2006); 12: The Golden Tree (2007); 13: The River of Wind (2007); 14: Exile (2007); 15: The War of the Ember (2008).

Evil Versus Evil | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_1645005b | comment |
Evil Versus Evil: The conflict between St. Aggie's and the Pure Ones can be summed up as this. St. Aggie's is an organization that kidnaps owls, brainwashing them to remove their free will and indoctrinate them. The Pure Ones, meanwhile, are a Nazi-esque militant group that believes Tyto owls are inherently superior to all others. | |

Artistic License – Biology: In The Outcast, a big deal is made about a wolf with "foaming-mouth disease", presumably rabies. While other wolves certainly need to be concerned about this, there is no concern for owls - such as Coryn or Uglamore - getting it. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: Whole characters and plot elements disappear from the series as soon as they lose relevance. For example, St. Aggie's essentially ceases to exist after The Siege with no word to the fates of the hundreds of Brainwashed children it enslaved, and the Flecks are never mentioned again after The Burning despite their significance in the earlier books. Ifghar and Gragg's goal of revenging themselves on Ezylryb by allying with the Pure Ones against the Guardians winds up as this. It's set up in the sixth book but they don't appear again until five books later after Ezylryb has died, leaving them nothing to do. As a result they only make minor appearances in books twelve and thirteen before vanishing entirely. | |

Carnivore Confusion | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_27a58d30 | comment |
Carnivore Confusion: Generally averts the "Predators Are Mean" aspect (owls, wolves, and bears are protagonists). Lampshaded when Digger (burrowing owl) and Mrs. P (snake) first meet, as burrowing owls are a predator of snakes. This becomes most apparent when the band is genuinely horrified that Twilight would suggest drying out a sea-star to use as a decoration. Outside of needing to eat, the owls generally leave prey animals alone. | |

Brainwashed | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_41d9aaef | comment |
Brainwashed: Moon blinking is a process where an owl's free will is destroyed by sleeping under the full moon, and repeating information over and over during the process causes said information to be forgotten. St. Aggie's uses moon blinking to control most of the owls that work there. In the event an owl avoids moon blinking, they are subject to moon scalding in a stone chamber that reflects and intensifies the light of the moon; moon scalding is much harder to resist. Stone stunning, a process similar to moon blinking, but taking place in a large canyon. Those who undergo this have a harder time navigating or even distinguishing between up and down. Shattering is caused by overexposure to magnetic iron. Afflicted owls are unable to properly sort out their emotions, are easily deluded, and struggle to navigate. Fire blinking, caused when an owl is transfixed by the light of a raging fire and goes yeep (losing their flight instincts). | |

Would Hurt a Child | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_479d4e5a | comment |
Would Hurt a Child: Owlets suffer a lot of abuse during the series as a whole. A lot of owlets try to fly before they're ready, which cause them to tumble out of nests, leaving them vulnerable to St. Aggie's patrols or other more mundane predators. St. Aggie's brainwashes owl children and turns them into mindless slaves. The Pure Ones indoctrinate Tyto owlets into their cult. Worst of all Digger's baby brother was eaten by Jatt and Jutt. It's a miracle that Eglantine survived. | |

Fantastic Underclass | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_5115e5f6 | comment |
Fantastic Underclass: The spin-off series The Wolves Of The Beyond has the lowest-ranking pack members as the "gnaw wolves". Not only are they discriminated against for their physical deformities, like missing tails or twisted paws, but they're also relegated to just gnawing on bones - both as an actual job (for the sake of recording information), and as their primary source of food. In the Guardians book The Outcast, Coryn making the order that they let Hamish the gnaw wolf eat before the rest of the pack - lest the pack be denied any of the food from his hunt - is treated as a big, status-quo-shaking deal. | |

Fantastic Racism: The Pure Ones are a group of Barn Owls and related Tyto species who look down on other types of owls. And the Barn Owls even look down on other Tytos they consider inferior, like Grass Owls and especially Sooties. Owls in general tend to be a bit speciest and look down on seagulls and other birds because they don't produce pellets. "Wet pooper" is an insult owls use sometimes. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: It's never established where, in real-life terms, the series takes place. No single location could account for the variety of owl (and other bird) species seen in the series, most of which don't coexist in real life. The Film of the Book implies it's in Australia by showing a Tasmanian devil and an Echidna and giving the characters Aussie accents, but even that doesn't really fit. | |

Recycled IN SPACE! | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_905438eb | comment |
Recycled In Space: St. Aggie's is quite similar to the residential school system used to oppress indigenous people in Canada, America, and Australia, but with owls. They take chicks from their families, and assimilate them by giving them new names, banning their original culture (Ga'hoolian legends), and preventing them from escaping and returning home. Abuses committed include not giving them proper food (they eat crickets, for Glaux's sake) and physical abuse (the vampire bats sucking out their blood) There's even a connection to the Catholic Church (St. Aggie's), which ran the residential schools, at least in Canada. | |

Ominous Owl | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_93decddf | comment |
Ominous Owl: The villains (especially Nyra) play the creepy owl factor for all it's worth. Hagsfiends. They're first mentioned as evil owl ghosts, and then, in books nine through eleven, it turns out that they're an actual species, but have since died out aside from the Dragon Owls. It's even implied that an owl can turn into a hagsfiend if they are extremely evil, which is implied to be the fate of Nyra. | |

And then, one day, he sees the couple out together...and realizes he isn't hurting anymore. note In that version of the story, anyway.

Persecuted Intellectuals | |

Persecuted Intellectuals: A running theme throughout the series is the importance and preservation of knowledge against those who might want to remove or restrict it. In The Capture, leaders of St. Aggie's try to prevent anyone from becoming more knowledgable than they are, by forbidding the asking of questions and restricting all access to books. In The Siege, Dewlap forbids a book and punishes Otulissa for reading it, which goes against the Guardians of Ga'Hoole's values, and is the first indication that Dewlap might not be on the Guardians' side. In Exile, The Striga and his Blue Brigade begin raiding homes to burn books. At the end of the series, The Striga begins steeling and burning books to keep their knowledge away from those who would use it against him. | |

Seers | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_c3bc970f | comment |
Seers: Owls with Starsight like Soren and Hortense will often have precognitive dreams of an upcoming event. Gylfie describes that it is like peeking through the holes in dreams. Firesight users like Grank, Hoole and Coryn can see visions of events that happened in the past, present and future by looking at fire. A rabbit that Coryn spared and had a conversation, can read fragments of the past, present and future events from spider webs. Unlike firesight, if he shares his name with anyone, he will lose it. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: "Call me Grank", the first line from The First Collier. At one point, a group of owls try to save books from the Pure Ones by memorizing them, saying they got the idea from a book written by one of the Others, named "Ray Brad" (although they think the name may have been cut off). Everything about the Legends of Ga'Hoole is based after Arthurian Legend. Eventually, towards the end, the actual Arthurian Legends are referenced. There are tons of 300 references in the last book. "We will fight in the shade" and "[you want our weapons?] Come and get them!" to name a few. | |

Dude, Not Funny!: In-universe example; Primrose the Pygmy owl suffers from an allergic reaction from a slug and has to be taken away to be healed. Ginger, a Pure One spy, makes a joke about getting Primrose's dessert, only for Otulissa and Gylfie to tell her sharply that it wasn't a time to make a joke. | |

| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_ce3f50f0 | comment |
Clever Crows: Both ravens and crows are present in the books. Crows are usually antagonistic (except to Doc Finebeak, who recruits them for the war in the last book), while ravens are more benevolent. Truth in Television, perhaps, if one believes ravens are more intelligent than crows. | |

An Arm and a Leg | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_d028e0da | comment |
An Arm and a Leg: Chopping off an owl's wing is always fatal, no exceptions. If they get their wings chopped while they're in mid-flight, they more often than not fall to their untimely doom since an owl (or any bird, for that matter) cannot fly with only one wing, and if that doesn't kill them, blood loss will as was the case for Coryn. | |

Evil Egg Eater: The owls of St. Aegolius Academy kidnap and brainwash young owl hatchlings, and were already portrayed as villainous. The revelation that not only do they kidnap owlets, but that they eat the eggs of other owls is treated with complete horror and disgust by the main characters beyond their other crimes and spurs them to immediately plan an escape. | |

From Nobody to Nightmare | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_e1acc872 | comment |
From Nobody to Nightmare: Metal Beak, the infamous leader of the Pure Ones, was originally an ordinary barn owl named Kludd. The Striga burned important books, owl homes, and owls themselves for the sake of his extremist views on "vanities". With such a reputation, who could guess that he used to lounge around in a palace, so obsessed with beauty that he'd grow feathers so long that he would be unable to fly? | |

Unexpectedly Human Perception | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_e2406f2f | comment |
Unexpectedly Human Perception: The series is from the point of view of owls, animals that typically see in limited or monochrome vision, but everything is described in full color. The most notable example is Nyroc first discovering the color of green, which he has a strong reaction to, despite not being able to see it in real life. | |

Cult Defector | |
| Guardians of Ga'Hoole / int_e2737113 | comment |
Cult Defector: Soren and Gylfie meet when they're both taken to an Orphanage of Fear known as "St. Aggies", where young owls spend their time being brainwashed and assimilated. Each night, they attempted to resist, but were caught and subjected to a stronger form of the regular brainwashing. However, through reciting legends about the mythical GaHoole, they were able to resist that brainwashing, too. Though they were able to escape by learning to fly, they were chased down by a patrol and the two other owls who weren't being brainwashed, Hortense and Grimble, were both caught and killed for their troubles. | |
