5.0 out of 5 stars Sweep 12: Eclipse!, June 29, 2002

By 

Aleisha (Lake Mary, FL United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Eclipse (Sweep, No. 12) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book is from both Morgan and Alisa's point of view. During a circle one night Morgan gets a message from Ciaran telling her he knows she put the watch sigil on him, he's not mad, and he's on his way to Widow's Vale. Morgan feels ready to crash She doesn't need this. She's still upset about Rose McEwan and at Hunter. On top of that Mr. Niall dislikes and distrusts Morgan because of her heritage. Then Ciaran shows up and asks Morgan to join him. When she refuses he tells her that her loved ones will pay for her decision. Morgan knows this means a dark wave and she's dead set on stopping it at all costs.

Alisa thinks she's just a normal girl until one day at the Rowlands she finds a book in Morgan's backpack that she is irresistabley drawn to. It turns out to be a BOS. While reading it Alisa discovers that the book belonged to her mother, which means Alisa is a half-witch. Also Alisa realizes she was the one causing all the "accidents" in Strife. Alisa can feel that something is up with Morgan, Hunter, and Mr. Niall, and she's willing to help them.

This book was sooo good. I was so proud of what Morgan did in regards to Ciaran. In this you start to like Alisa a little more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommended to Parents who cant get their daughters to read, June 14, 2004

El Brujo "Brujo Hechisero" (Lowell, Ma) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Eclipse (Sweep, No. 12) (Mass Market Paperback)

I purchased the Sweep series for my 13 year old daughter in the hopes that maybe she would read. "She hated to read." Well I was amazed, and could not get her to go to sleep, as she would spend the whole night, with a night-light on reading these books. She enjoyed them so much, and could not stop talking first about Cal and then Hunter, that I had to see what all the fuss was about.
Well after two weeks, a book a day, for a girl who hated to read, it sparked my curiosity, so I started reading, and was surprised to find out how enjoyable a Teen book about Teen Witches could be. I am not really into Wicca, but these books are really enjoyable. I am on my fifth book, and my daughter read each twice, and is know on the Circle of Three Series. I have to highly recommend these books to those parents who can not get their daughters to read. These are excellent stories, full of fantasy, horror, and fun.

4.0 out of 5 stars Morgan and Alisa Join Forces, October 23, 2003

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Eclipse (Sweep, No. 12) (Mass Market Paperback)

Morgan is back and so is Alisa. For those who don't remember, Alisa is the girl who is scared by Morgan because strange telekinetic things happen when they are together and she feels Morgan is unable to control her power.

One day, at practical magic, Morgan picks up a Book Of Shadows from the seventies. This is actually on we have seen excerpts from in a previous book. But when Alisa is visiting Mary K. (Morgans younger sister), she steals the book.

The book winds up revealing things about Alisa's family and just who Alisa is. As Alisa begins to deal with her situation, she gets caught up with Morgan, Hunter and Hunter's father as a new and serious danger threatens them and much of Widow's Vale.

The story switches back and forth from Morgan's point of view to Alisa's. There are no excerpts starting each chapter, but there are some interesting quotes. A good book that seems to really move the series towards a conclusion.

On a side note, does anyone else thing the town should change its name to Widowers Vale? Morgan, Alisa and Hunter are all missing mothers. Plenty of widowers and no widows.
