Die Jungeulen Sören und Gylfie werden in die berühmte Schule der Eulenritter von Ga'Hoole aufgenommen. Dort bildet man sie zu tapferen Flugkünstlern aus. Die Freude ist groß, als die Schüler bei einer Bergungsaktion Sörens verschollen geglaubte kleine Schwester Eglantine entdecken. Nur Sörens geliebter Lehrer Ezelryb kehrt von der Rettungsmission nicht mehr zurück.
The brave owls of Ga'Hoole are back in their second mythic adventure as they strive to preserve owldom from the evil that lurks around them. Join the owls in their quest for the Great Ga'Hoole Tree, the legendary place where ordinary owls are transformed into the heroes that guard the owl kingdom.
Out of the darkness a hero will rise...
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 arduous for Soren, Gylife, Twilight and Digger. When they finally arrive, they realize that the journey has barely started and that greater challenges lay ahead. If they succeed in following in the footsteps of their leaders, they will soon become true Ga'Hoolian owls- honest, brave, true and wise.
