Morgan, Hunter and other members of their coven go to New York for a few days in search of the Amyranth witches. Hunter, a Seeker for the Council, is looking for Killian, a young witch in danger. It seems that Ciaran, Killian's father, is looking for him and intending to wipe his magic. After many false leads and strange meetings, it becomes clear that Ciaran is actually seaching for Morgan, wanting to take her power. He is not in the end able to do this as he suddenly realises that Morgan is his own child. Morgan is horrified to be the child of someone she considers evil. The book ends as she breaks up with Hunter because she believes she has inherited her father's evil and will damage those close to her.

This review is from: The Calling (Sweep, No. 7) (Mass Market Paperback)

Morgan has discovered her true heritage, but she has paid an enormous price. In just a few short months, her life has changed forever. Cal, her first love, the one she thought was her soulmate, betrayed her, and then died to save her. She has come to love Hunter, Cal's half-brother, and believes he may be her soulmate. She is learning more about magick, her powers, and her birth parents, and on a trip to New York City with Hunter and some of her friends, she hopes to learn even more. But Morgan is not prepared for the truths she discovers, and everything she has ever believed about her birth parents is challenged. Is Morgan strong enough to face the truth, even if it will break her heart? The ending to this book completely shocked me and left me eager to read the next book. This book is an essential read for any fan of the Sweep series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just as good as the last!, November 27, 2001

This review is from: The Calling (Sweep, No. 7) (Mass Market Paperback)

In Cate Tiernan's new book The Calling, Morgan has been haunted with terrifying dreams of animals and magick. When she tells hunter this he senses they might be important so he tells the council of it and they agree. Soon Morgan, Hunter, Sky, Raven, Robbie, and Bree are off on a road trip to NYC (as the city photos on the cover suggests). Morgan is interested in learning what her dreams mean and getting closer to Hunter but neither of those options seem open. Hunter is out looking around all day and no one knows what's really going on. Then without warning, Morgan is thrown head first into magickal mayhem that she never suspected. By the end of the book she has made two shocking revealations that will change her forever.

This book was just as good as the last. Once again Cate Tiernan has written a thrilling book about magick, love, and finding oneself. I highly reccomend this book to anyone who has been following the series, in fact I find it nessicary. This is a very important edition in Morgans life and an equally important edition to the series. I can't wait till the next book!

This review is from: The Calling (Sweep, No. 7) (Mass Market Paperback)

This is an amazing book that creates many mind twists and hard jolts. Morgan has been having disturbing dreams involving a sacrafice that the concil wants Hunter to check out AND Morgan much to Hunter's dislike in New York City. (aww...how cute, anyway) They go along with Bree, Robby, Sky, and Raven(all the couples)to Bree's fathers apartment who is barly ever there. ooo la la. Hunter is gone most the time with Sky so Morgan is really bummed. Mean while Morgan meets a few strangers who she feels connected somehow with. Who are they and who is this stranger about to be sacraficed??! Time is running out. Okay people get ready for the grand daddy of all suprises! actually TWO but hey, whoes counting? I give Miz Tiernan a LOT of pretty smelling roses for this mind spinner! Truth be told the last page is what killed me! i mean i LOVED it but gosh darn it! i wanted MORE. Talk about an emotional rollercaoster that makes ya want to throw up! Alas, my eyes blur with the fact that i don't have book 8 yet! i know i know. but they say NO spoilers. :(
