The Song of Eloh Saga #4-6
The Swarm Trilogy: Sleepers, Afterlife, and The Sundering
**This novel is for upper YA. It contains some mild language and brief sexual situations**
Sleepers, Afterlife, and The Sundering (Books 5, 6, & 7 in The Song of Eloh Saga) bundled into one!
Sleepers:
An adoptee raised in a foreign land, sixteen-year-old Lianne was content with her life as handmaiden to the queen, until a spell cast on her at birth activated. Now she's filled with uncontrollable rage and access to magic she thought had been bled from her people years ago. Even her years of secret training in elite hand-to-hand combat and meditation can't calm the fires raging inside her.
Her heart is torn between two boys, the one she's always loved and the one who always ignored her. But when the kingdom threatens to tear itself apart due to rumors surrounding the queen's alleged affair, who will Lianne protect and who will she destroy?
Afterlife:
The fire inside Lianne threatened to consume her, but she fought back and won. Unfortunately the collateral damage of her decisions won't stop haunting her. She embarks on a secret trip to find Mags and return her son, but her search leads her into another nest of lies.
Everyone's safety is in Lianne's hands as the Malborn, an enemy more fearsome than her own people, looms over them. Will Lianne be able to unravel the secrets in time to save the ones she loves the most? Or will her lack of faith in her own decisions lead to disaster?
The Sundering:
After defeating the Malborn and losing the person she loved most, Lianne escapes to Chase's homeland. With her appearance forever marked by death, Lianne feels like a monster both on the outside and the inside. She retreats into herself, fearful of what she's become.
But she can't hide forever.
The Malborn, damaged but not broken, send a deadly message to Lianne. They are coming for her and now she's brought danger to a peaceful land that believed they'd driven the Malborn from their shores forever. Lianne must force herself to trust again and make the ultimate sacrifice to save everyone she loves. In a world ruled by whoever harnesses the most powerful magic, no one can be trusted – no one is safe.

Meg Jensen has done it again!
I read books one through three in one week. It was a great story about a stubborn girl and her adventures. I enjoyed all of the characters. Meghan Jensen hits another home run. Yeah it is a really enjoyable series of books.

Amazing
Meggie knows how to keep you in suspense. I have read this series at least 3 time now. It has it all
I highly recommend reading the whole series even if you start with the last set first.

This is not a current review but I loved this story! Megg's worlds are fantastical and the perfect getaway from reality!

Well written
The story that spans the Swarm trilogy is fresh and different. The characters are interesting though they sometimes can feel a bit shallow and one dimensional.

Worth it.
Good read. I enjoyed the continuation. Three more books? Would like to see what happens with magic in the future.

A world where things aren't what they seem. Given up for adoption the conquering nation three children grow to maturity. There whole world changes when they turn sixteen. Another great saga by the author such a vivid imagination and a great ability to build a world with words. I highly recommend this new series.

The Swarm Trilogy: Sleepers, Afterl, and The Sundering
I found this trilogy so interesting I finished it in a few days. Didn't want to go to sleep until I either finished a book or was at a good place to stop. Look forward to reading more of her books this makes seven so far.

Disappointing. Had to give up on this set. The three main characters are over dramatic in their thoughts and words. Maybe that's part of their "awakenings," but it's unbearable at the moment. Basic plot shows promise, but I can't spend another minute hoping it will get better. Sorry.
