The reader is introduced to Soren, a barn owl and the centerpiece of the series. When Soren is pushed from his family's nest by his older brother, he is rescued from certain death on the forest floor by agents from a mysterious school for orphaned owls, St. Aggie's. When Soren arrives at St. Aggie's, he suspects there is more to the school than meets the eye. He and his new friend, the clever and scrappy Gylfie, find out that St. Aggie's is actually...

Ever since Soren was kidnapped and taken to the St. Aegolius School for Orphaned Owls, he has longed to see his sister, Eglantine, again. Now Eglantine is back in Soren's life, but she's been through an ordeal too terrible for words. And Ezylryb, Soren's mentor, has disappeared. Deep within Soren's gizzard, something more powerful than knowledge tells him there's a connection between these mysterious events. In order to rescue Ezylryb, Soren embarks...

As war erupts between the evil Pure Ones and the brave owls of Ga'Hoole, Soren is summoned by the elders to return to St. Aegolius Academy for Orphaned Owls in order to restore peace.

Nyroc must decide whether to lead the evil Pure Ones against the good owls or to fight on the side of the good ones.

Hoole uses the power of the Ember in the final, decisive battle and searches for the ideal place to establish an order of free owls.

Soren and Coryn read the ancient legends of Ga'Hoole in order to find a way to prevent the victory of evil in their present world.

The golden age which is expected from the Great Ga'Hoole Tree turns gradually worse as the owls' young king hunts for the truth about his ancestry.
