Guardians of Ga'hoole - The Capture

I try to read books in advance that I think my children should read.  Usually classics, but in this case, I followed the trends and chose Guardians of Ga'hoole.

Have you read any books from this series yet?  If not, I highly recommend them.  The writing is top-notch.  The characters are engaging.  The suspense is perfect.  It's the kind of book you can not put down, until you have finished every last page.  I finished reading it in a single day (or night).  It's a quick read.

I loved it!  My kids have not been as interested in the book as I was.  I'm not sure if they are just not as interested in owls as I am, or if there is something else.  It could be that I highly recommended it - and they are of the age that what I like must be lame.  Hmm, we'll see about that.

I definitely recommend checking out this book (libraries have them).  I've only read book #1 (The Capture), but am on the waiting list at my library for book #2 (The Journey).
