The Outcast is full of cheese and fluff and represents a cheap version of a prophecy fulfillment story. The problems I spotted in The Hatchling return tenfold in this book, to the point where not even nostalgia could win the day.Lets start with Nyroc/Coryn. Coryn consistently speaks in grandiose, cheesy statements, and is given advice that is also grandiose and cheesy. Hes not as familiar or as memorable a protagonist as Soren; in fact, hes a rather flat character who is pretty much flawless inThis one is really good and is closing the story on Soren's adventures and now mainly focusing on Coryn. But no worries, he is still always there. This story is very inspirational as is the entire series. Not only is it full of action, it teaches some very important lessons. One is that no matter where you come from, there is always a way to be noble. As when Soren addresses Coryn in saying "You who were born into evil found good. You who were raised in tyranny sought equality. You who were
The Outcast is the continuation of Nyroc's change-of-heart story. He's betrayed his mother and the Pure Ones and reinvented himself as Coryn. But he's also come to realize that there's no place for him in the owl kingdom, so he sets out for the volcano wasteland called the Beyond the Beyond. I will admit that every time "Beyond the Beyond" was mentioned, I would think of the Mysterious Beyond from Land Before Time and the "Beyond the Mysterious Beyond" song from the seventh movie. (Enjoy. Or,
Alright. I read this book in one day. That should give you some idea of how ridiculously RIVETING this book is!Watching the main character's transition from Nyroc to Coryn was wonderful. I love his new name, and I'm sure he'll be a wonderful king in the days to come. While he can't change that his parents were awful, he does his best to renounce them and live a better life. Especially with him rescuing the egg of that burrowing owl family, I gained a lot of respect for him.I hate his mom,
This one is a little slow, definitely a character builder with little compelling action.
It's the eight book of the Owls and they keep on hooting as the series progresses along with some good moments and others that are not so interesting.After reading eight books in a fairly narrow space of time I'm going to take a break from this on for a while before returning later for the second half of the series. It's a fair series, but nothing that I'm desperate to read in a hurry.
Review by James, age 9. The main character of this book is Nyroc, not Soren who was the main character of all the books before it. Nyroc later renames himself Coryn, because he hates his old name. It is the name given to all owlets born under the full moon. Being born under the full moon gives them an evil blessing or a good blessing. His mother, who was super evil and trying to take over the world with the help of huge armies called "The Pure Ones," wanted it to be an evil blessing. She did not
