This box set contains the first three books by Kathryn Lasky: The Capture, The Journey, and The Rescue. Soren is born in the forest of Tyto, a tranquil kingdom where the Barn Owls dwell. But evil lurks in the owl world, and Soren is captured and imprisoned in a dark canyon where there is a mysterious school. It’s called an orphanage, but Soren believes it’s something far worse. He and his new friend, the clever and scrappy Gylfie, know that the only way out is up. To escape, they will need to do something these fledglings have never done before—fly.

Hera, the Goddess of the Gulls, is the loneliest gull in Sealand. She is reputed to be the only gull able to converse with the Sea, an age-old tradition in Sealand; but old Hera failed to teach her successor the Sea language before she died. It seems the Sea language is lost forever to the proud, hard gull race. If the gulls found out Hera's lonely secret, they would kill her. Just when all seems lost, the Sea language finds Hera—and her life, and mind, are forever transformed.
