THE BOOK
THE LONG SILENCE AND THE DAWN OF THE REUNION
The light is going out. Long before men carved their paths through the world, fragments of starlight fell to earth and took root in the oldest forest. From them were born the Lil Hoots: 2,500 owls, each one unique, each carrying a gift written into its body, its eyes, its beak, and the sky it was born under.
Now the light that made them is fading, and the five lineages, Bald, City, Day, Forest and Night, must hold together what the silence is taking apart. This is their complete story.
