I have recently revisited the sweep (or wicca series in the UK) and while I love books 1-14. It felt so forced and false.In brief love the others. oh wait I see a plot flange.
Moira is Morgan with exactly the same issues only compressed into the space of about 2 days.2. Good grief.3. I really dislike this one.1.
It makes no sense but she's back doing the job her mammy abandoned. Why is Morgan running Belwicket. I thought they all died.
And everything with Hunter. despise this one.
Now it does have a little dark side to some of it but the good vs. It has romance and danger, everything you need to keep you wanting to find out what happens next.I hope I can find another series like this. My son was reading this series and he doesn't usually like to read, so I thought I would see what was keeping his interest. I have difficulty on staying focused but this series has kept me on the edge of my seat. I hope Cate Tierman will add to this series. evil shines through for the most part. I read the series "Twilight" and this was real close if not exceeding the same excitement.
At first it sounded like it was going to be disapointing but nothing could be further from the truth. I am glad I did. You must read this last book "Night's Child".It answers so many questions about the series. I have been so excited with this series. It has so many wonderful twist and turns filled with excitement. I think it was my favorite. The characters were great.
I found this book really hard to read. It's still good, but I only suggest reading this if you enjoyed the books that were from a different point of view. If you want to know how Morgan's story ends go on a fansite and read some spoilers.
[--sorry bout the spoilers]You know, after reading the sweep series, you jus *had* to read its conclusion. But after reading the prologue, I almost started crying, I mean what is a Sweep book without HUNTER.
Secondly, wtf.who in their RIGHT STATE OF MIND would kill off Hunter. The Sweep series is a incredible series but this 'special edition' is really crap. This book is AWFUL. Obviously someone who is very close friends with a certain white jacket, not only has Hunter's life been hard enough with him, losing his parents from the dark wave, then feeling responsible for him brothers death, to finding his parents where one is dead, one hates him and would rather die and commit 'dark magic' than live to get to know his son, but then he is taken to some cursed island to ROT while his soulmate almost dies from grief then marries another man. Firstly Moria, is barley even an original character, she behaves and feels so much like Morgan that its creepy, her encounter with the dark wave is way too much like Alisa's and her realationship with the neighbor boy is similar to her mother's experience.The fact that this book is what the series builds up to KILLS me. Firstly I personally feel Cate Tiernan did not write this willingly :) I think it was a gimmick to sell more books. Poor Hunter, this book infuritates me.I could go on and on but I have done enough of that that on other forums dedicated to Sweep so I will save you all from my ranting ability and just say:TAKE MY WORD FOR IT DONT READ THE BOOK IF YOU LOVE SWEEP THE SERIES. But if you havent read sweep, and happen to come across this book by itself help yourself, it would be safe for you to endure this book because you havent read all about the other characters and seen so much promise to let it all just float away on some stupid ferry boat.>.>ok im done.
