Product Description:
The Striga, former dragon owl from the Middle Kingdom beyond the Unnamed Sea, has come to stay at the great tree. He has earned the trust of all by saving Bell, Soren's owlet, from Nyra, and he grows daily closer to the young king Coryn, with whom he seems to share a strange bond. The Striga senses the power of the ember hidden in Bubo's forge and draws it closer. As his power waxes, he accuses the Band of treason and produces flimsy evidence to support his abominable claim. And so the Band is exiled, strengthening the Striga's hold over Coryn.
The Band seeks refuge in distant forests and enlists the help of old friends, but every action they take is construed as further treason, and agents of the Striga - former Guardians - hunt them mercilessly, until for safety sake the band itself must separate. They devise as system of messages and alarms and so communicate despite their isolation. Old friends, loyal family and allies help devise a plan to shake the hold the Striga has on Coryn and to free the young king and the tree from this new, insidious tyranny. It will take courage, daring and wisdom, but the Band will meet the new challenge - for the sake of the king, and the Great Ga'Hoole Tree.

As my daughter was reading this the other night she remarked that this is by far the best one yet in the series - we highly recommend it.

Exile is awsome! If anything, it's a little bloody, though. I was so sure it was going to be the last book-but don't be. The last chapter guarantees there will be another book. Nyra is not yet dead.In fact, Exile has little to do with Nyra. It's mostly about the Striga burning owls. I found it a little disappointing that Tengshu didn't kill the Striga. Overall, it was a good book. Not as good as the River of Wind, though.

Riveting. Read it the same day I got it. Eagerly awaiting the subsequent one in the series.

Lots of action. I like these weird blue owls from the middle kingdom because it introduces weirdness. Also, I like the idea of The Striga (Blue owl from the middle kingdom; member of the dragon court who were formerly hagsfiends) somehow being completely opposite to "vanity" and thinks there should be none of it. (I don't like the idea)
