The Hatchling is the seventh book of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series, in which a new era has begun. This is the first book in the series that has a central character besides Soren. The central character is the hatchling, Nyroc, who is the son of the evil Kludd and the equally evil Nyra. As the story begun I thought I knew what to expect. Now that Metal Beak is dead, a new villain must rise up and lead the Pure Ones against the Guardians to continue the epic struggle between good and evil. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this was not that story. From the beginning we see that Nyroc is much more resembles Soren than either of his parents. A serious question is answered in this book. It's a question that the author discussed in The Shattering about whether the offspring of Nyra and Kludd would be born evil. Would such an offspring have any chance at all of choosing good over evil. The author has answered resoundingly as Nyroc spurns his upbringing and his murderous mother and seeks a life of good. It is interesting how Nyra is so upset with Nyroc for asking questions. It shows again that free-thinking, knowledge and learning are encouraged by good parents, leaders, and teachers, while being discouraged in evil circles. One great point the author makes through the words of the Rogue Smith of Silverveil is that “Truth must be revealed and not simply told.” This lesson is eventually embraced by the other rogue smith, Gwyndor, as he tries to reveal some truth to Nyroc. This is shown when he tells Nyroc, “Belief is found in one's self...It has no power if it is simply ordered like a command.” As Nyroc starts to question everything he's ever been told, he comes to some profound realization. He realizes how wrong it was for Phillip to be looked down upon just because he was not considered pure enough. Later he declares to his mother, “Everyone is worth something.” These statements have obvious overtones of the racism in the human world. As time goes on Nyroc realizes he has his own free will. This is a great lesson aimed at the children who read this series. You don't have to be like your parents. You don't have to do drugs, drink, lie, cheat, steal, etc. just because your parents do. You have a choice. No matter how horrible is the situation in which you've been raised, you have the power in your own mind to choose the opposite. No matter how many people write you off because of what you look like or who your parents are, you can still choose good over evil. The human spirit has the power to overcome. There's a final note in the last chapters where another owl is learning new things. Otulissa, a scientist who is all business, all facts, all science is starting to see that there is more to life than the physical realm. There is more to reality than what you can see, touch, and prove. While Nyroc goes against all he was raised to believe, Otulissa seems to be going against what she has always prided herself in. Will they end up with similar destinies? The Hatchling was a good read that did all of that while giving the reader new things to wonder about. What about the dire wolves, the Ember of Hoole, the Beyond the Beyond, the first collier? And what about Ifghar? We are definitely set up for the next intriguing installment of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole.
