Why read it?
1 author picked The First Collier as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The first person storytelling in The First Collier is unique among the Guardians of Ga'Hoole books, and helps to immerse the reader in this world of ice and constant warfare. The hero, Grank, is also unique, in that he tells the whole narrative as though aware that he is not its main player--merely setting the stage for his arrival. It is a short book, but one in which Lasky's knowledge and characterization shine through while maintaining an interesting story about the conflict between good and evil, but also the more complex conflict between reason and superstition.
