Rent The Hatchling (Guardians of Ga'Hoole, Book 7)

Synopsis

Raised to believe in the power of hate, the young son of the evil Kludd must find the courage to defy the destiny chosen for him in this, the seventh book of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series.

Beneath a shadowed moon in a cloud-streaked sky, the sacred orb splits, and a hatchling is born. It is Nyroc, son of Kludd, fallen leader of the Pure Ones. Born from evil, trained to evil, Nyroc is destined to fulfill his father's terrible plan: the oppression of all owldom under the vicious talons of the Pure Ones. But doubt grows in Nyroc's heart, fed by strange, forbidden legends of a great tree far away where noble owls live in peace. And a light dawns in Nyroc's gizzard, nourished by friendship. A day is nearing when Nyroc must choose to fulfill his destiny or to defy it. It will be a day of blood and terror.
