Summary: I'm reading Sweep again!
Review: After "Strife" I was kind of disappointed, but "Seeker" is soooo much better. Written in a male point of view you finally understand the world through Hunter's eyes. You realize that he's not mysterious at all, just a regular guy. I love the way he talks about his love (and lust) for Morgan! The story has him finally getting in touch with (both?) of his parents IN Canada.Leaving Morgan behind. Also a female witch gets a little too touchy with him. Will he forget Morgan? Or will he taste something new? I think that this is the best one yet! READ IT!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: good!
Review: All the other books in the series are in Morgans point of view....but for a change this is in Hunters. Its a great book. We find out secrets to his family and something from Morgans ancestry.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Hmm...
Review: As an avid fan of the Sweep series, I'm unhappy to say that this book disappointed me. It just wasn't the same without Morgan narrating, and I can't say I ever got over Cal and accepted Hunter... (in fact, this book made me like him even less.) I guess I just have to say that this book was too different than the previous nine, and it really made me want to smack both Hunter and Morgan upside the head. It didn't give me that feeling of satisfaction and contentment that we all usually experience after reading one of Cate Tiernan's books. But still, don't let my opinion stop you from feeding that Sweep obsession.

Summary: Hunter's Story
Review: Before you even read this book ignore the summary that's posted ont this page. It has nothing to do with this book at all. In Seeker Hunter get's to take center stage and narrate his story. WHen he recieves word on where his parents are he's shocked and thrilled. Unfortuantly they're living in Canda, meaning he'll have to leave Morgan, his solemate, for a little while. So he travels up to Canada hoping to see the same mother father that he grew up with and loved so much. But unfortunatly for Hunter things don't turn out that way. He finds himself getting caught up in something strange that he doesn't quite understand. And that's not the only problem he has on his hands. His duty of seeker is called to attenion when he learns of a woman in Canada that has a large collection of true names. What will he do?

I really liked the change of pace in this book. For once we don't see the story from Morgan's point of view we see it from Hunters. We get to know what Hunter is thinking and feeling and it's very interesting. I was also thrilled to realize that I could translate pretty much everything that was said in French on my own. Which is a big step for a 11th grade 3rd year C students like me! If you're a fan of the sweep series and, like me, a fan of Hunter, read this book.

Summary: -great book-
Review: Book number 10-Seeker was great. It is from Hunter's point of view, which is cool for a change. It's neat to see things from his perspective. Anyways, Hunter is on a mission to find his dad whom he hasn't seen in eleven years. He reluctantly leaves Morgan behind, but he needs to find his father. When he does find his father, his father isn't in good shape. His father is obsessed with contacting his dead wife, and can't seem to stop. Then Hunter is sent by his mentor, Kennet Moir, to investigate a woman named Justine Courceau who is collecting the true names of things, including people. (which is bad because when the person has an object's true name, they have control over the object) Justine seems nice, but Hunter can't let her keep the list of true names. Between Hunter's father and Justine, Hunter has some stuff to deal with. All in all, it was cool to have Hunter's view on things for a change, as I said before.

The whole series is really good for anyone who is interested in a mixture of fantasy/Wicca. I have read all of the books out, and I can't wait for the next book to come out! Anybody who likes books like the Sweep series should also read : the Daughters of the Moon series, and the Witches Chillers series

Summary: Hunter-Your big No-No made me hate this book! Otherwise
Review: called Hunter keep your lips to yourself! ( And I wish Morgan had cast a spell so green alge grew on them!)
Personally this is my least favorite book of the series. Orgins is right behind it, not because it's a bad book but because it was so dark. The reason I don't like this book is simple Hunter ****** another person! Talk about loving the one your with!
The only good part was how he helped pull his father back from the land of the dead. It was really sad to read about how his dad communicated with the dead and because of it was having the life drained out of him. His addiction is just like any other and was horrible to read about how it affected Hunter. Maybe He and Hunter could go to I speak to the dead anonymous? Can his son help bring him back into the world of the living or will his father become a real corpse instead of just looking like one? Find this out in this book.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not so perfect
Review: Compared to the other books in the WICCA, (or SWEEP), series I didn't like this one as much. Cate Tiernan is a really awesome writer but this book didn't really coincide with my idea on who Hunter was. He just seemed different from what he was in the other books. This book may give us a better understanding of what Hunter thinks and all, but to me he seemed really foney, it just didn't click right.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: As good as the others!
Review: First ill just tell you that its a little weird all of the sudden reading it through hunter,but youll get used to it.Its basically about how finnally hunter meets his dad,but his dad isnt all what he remembored him as.Hes also worried about his dad because hes getting into a little dark majick(but for a very big reason)Also while hes there he has to investigate a woman who is rumored to be writing down true names of things.Even though it was a little weird reading it through him,i really liked it.Ill warn you know though,when you finish this book you will probably be mad at hunter but youll have to read it to find out why!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hunter Seeks His Parents
Review: Hunter has been told that his parents, who have been missing for eleven years, are in Canada. In this book, he travels North to find them.

This is the first book of Sweep that is not from Morgan's viewpoint. Instead, we get small snatches of her in the chapter openings.

All is not well for Hunter. He tracks his parents to a poor backwater. It is here that he learns the truth of his parents' flight their abandonment of him and his siblings, the fate of his hometown, and what his father is really up to now.

But as Hunter tries to confront all the new revelations, the Council sends him to investigate a young witch who is collecting the true names of things and people, and writing them down. He even discovers a possible link in Morgan's past. How can Hunter handle it all? You will have to read it to find out.

But if family and job were not enough, Hunter also discovers a secret about his life and position that he never suspected. I guess that will be the subject of a future book.

Although this book differs from the rest by being from a different viewpoint, it works very well in the series and should not be a disappointment to fans of the Morgan-oriented stories.
