Product Description
In the next installment of the compulsive series, Morgan faces the ultimate test - to choose between good or evil. She is asked by the Witch Council to lure her half-brother, Killian, in order to build a closer relationship with her father, Kieran. Her aim is to gain knowledge of the Dark Wave that will destroy Alice's coven, but, as Morgan and Hunter get back together, will her father successfully draw her over to the dark side?

Morgan knows not much about herself and her nature.This book made me cry repeatedly in frustration about how much Morgan and Hunter obviously love each other yet I do understand why Morgan doesn't want to be with him. This shows she loves him even more than you thought because she gives up the person she loves most in the world just to protect him from her 'evilness'. She cannot figure out if she is good or bad or if she and Hunter will ever get back together.
All in all, a fantastic read and a happy ending. I congratulate Cate Tiernan on her ability to write so well and keep you hooked on what is to be the saddest but sweetest relationship of all time.
Format:Paperback
Morgan Rowlands has discovered a terrible secret about her origins that has thrown her entire life into doubt. She pushes her beloved Hunter away, determined to isolate herself so as not to threaten the lives of those she loves. But as soon as she does Morgan is contacted by the International Council of Witches. It turns out she is uniquely qualified to help them deal with a dangerous witch...but doing so could cost her her life.
This is the eighth book in the Wicca series (after Book of Shadows, The Coven, Blood Witch, Dark Magick, Awakening, Spellbound and The Calling) and it picks up shortly after the last left off. Morgan has broken up with Hunter and distanced herself from her friends and so this story takes a more introverted view. A large part of the story comes from Morgan's inner thoughts and, with her family away on vacation, this guides her choices throughout.
The morality of good versus bad has been covered before in the series but this installment takes it one step further by looking at how much personal choice is involved. Can a person be predestined to be either good or bad, or can they choose their own path? For that matter is it a one time choice or something that must be repeated? Heavy themes but well handled so that the characters and reader can come to their own conclusion.
With Hunter and Morgan separated the romance angle of the storyline is less than previously and this gap is filled with tension, not only from Morgan's work with the council but from the strained relationships throughout the book. Killan makes a welcome return and he manages to spread both joy and chaos in his wake, giving the book some lighter moments to balance the dark.
All in all this was a great read and I'm looking forward to Strife.

This is the 8th installment in the series. Like all the rest it is brilliant and has you gripped all the way through. Morgan is starting to learn more about her family and finds out who she thought was her father is not in actual fact its father. It carries on from the last The Calling where she split up from Hunter because she believes she is bad. She soon discovers who she is and what side she chooses, good or bad.
