Reach for this book when your child is starting to ask deep questions about who they are and where they come from, especially if they feel burdened by the successes or mistakes of their older relatives. This ninth installment of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series follows King Coryn as he leads a new era of peace, only to find himself haunted by the dark legacy of his parents, Nyra and Kludd. As he seeks the truth about his bloodline, he must decide if his ancestry defines his future. Kathryn Lasky uses a rich, high-fantasy lens to explore complex themes of identity and moral choice.
