After Shade meets Marina Brightwing on an island, they head to the city. While the Silverwing bats are migrating to Hibernaculum, he gets swept to sea. Sun Freedom (Silverwing and Sunwing) Īs Shade Silverwing looks at the sun, the owls destroy Tree Haven. The war is based on Aesop's Fables called "The Birds, the Beasts and the Bat."
However, because the bats refused to take sides, they were banished from being allowed to fly during the day-not even allowed to so much as look at the sun-ever again only emerging at night. Finally a compromise was reached the birds would control the sky, while the beasts would claim the land. The bats, however, seeing themselves as neither birds nor beasts, remained neutral throughout the conflict. The great war between the birds and the beasts happened approximately 65 million years after the extinction of the dinosaurs for dominance over the land and sky.
All four books, published between 19, are commonly assigned in the curriculum of upper elementary and middle school grades in Canada, and in some parts of the United States. The Silverwing Book Series is a series of novels by Canadian writer Kenneth Oppel about the adventures of a young bat.
