Product Description
Morgan's saga continues in this double-length, stand alone SWEEP book.

 ugh, dissapointment September 7, 2007
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!!<33 And I couldn't get myself to read the book, and just skimmed through it to get a glimpse of what will happen and I couldn't believe that Hunter could just die like that. And I read jus bits from the last page and concluded that he is still alive which calmed me a bit so I went on reading. But then the introduction of Moira, as COLM's daughter and I could not LOOK at the cover (which I suppose, is a picture of Moira) and I was just like NO! and kept ranting about it to all my family and friends who had no idea what I was talking about. And I almost ripper off the cover but it's a library book so I just stuck a piece of paper on it =P psh im weird i noe. And then I went back to skimming through to confirm that Moira is NOT Colm's daughter and soon found out that she wasn't and was finally satisfied enough to make myself read on. I liked the happy ending and all but I don't know, SIXTEEN YEARS was just a bit too much, and I wanted a little Hunter/Morgan-ness. *shrug* Overall, this book kept me feeling depressed-ish for weeks on end. Poor Hunttteerr. So if you're a sentimental freak like me, maybe you could consider staying away from the book.
 Avoid this book if you are a Sweep fan March 23, 2006

This book is AWFUL! The Sweep series is a incredible series but this 'special edition' is really crap. 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.
Secondly, wtf..who in their RIGHT STATE OF MIND would kill off Hunter?! 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! 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.....

I am sad that this is the last book of the Sweep series. I as satisfied with this book but a lil dissapointed. I was glad the Morgan still contacted her adopted family and Bree and Robbie. I was satisfied that the book mentioned what was going on with them and how they were along with some of the blood witches that were in the series. I was dissapointed that it didn't tell us how Alisa was doing or if she was still into Wicca or if she was initiated. Also some of the coven members from Kithic were not even mentioned. I was glad that Killian stay close to Morgan but his mother and other brother and sister were really mean to Morgan. Ciaran was mean to Morgan before he died. She had to do what she had to do. Iona is a bitch. Morgan is the Destroyer, the sguiurs dan. Morgan is like her birth father but she is the good version of him. Morgan can heal and destroy. There is a light and dark side to everything. Everything has to be in balance. Moira seems to have inheritied a lot of her mothers power. They both live in Ireland and Morgan has rebuild Belwicket along with some of the members that had survived the dark wave. Hunter is also in this book and so is Sky. Morgan is the most powerful witch that anyone has ever know. This book is good so I gave it 3 1/2 stars because of some of my dissapointments. Read to see what happens to Morgan, Hunter, and her daughter.

I was so disappointed with this book. It is true that the book ties up a few loose ends left in the rest of the series but not ones I was interested in. like Morgan and Ciaran's relationship after book 14. The relationship dies completely. it doesn't involve any of the characters that you grew to know in the series, Bree, Robbie, Mary K, Raven, Alyce, Daniel. Also, even though this is Morgan's daughter's story, it's still the same problems all over again! "I don't know who I am anymore," "what if he's betraying me," "I have to find my father," "what the heck's going on?" blah blah blah. It's boring. This book is a TERRIBLE way to end a series. I don't recommend anyone who enjoyed the Sweep series to read this book.
