Narration Supposing Books Witchlight (Night World #9)
The ninth, and - to date - final installment of L.J. Smith's Night World series, in which a hidden society of vampires, witches and shape-shifters exists alongside the human one, Witchlight tells the story of Keller, a tough-as-nails black panther shape-shifter in the employ of Circle Daybreak. As she struggles to fulfill her mission to protect Iliana Harman, the legendary Witch Child, and the third of the four Wild Powers - beings whose extraordinary abilities will either bring about the end of the world or hold it off - Keller must also contend with her growing feelings for Galen Drache, a son of the First House of the shape-shifters. He may be her destined Soulmate, but Keller knows their love is hopeless, for Galen is promised to Iliana - an alliance between the witches and the shape-shifters that could turn the tide in the coming Night World war... The third Night World title - after Huntress and Black Dawn - to focus on the Wild Powers, and the coming millennial apocalypse (this was published in 1998), Witchlight is also the first to really explore the shape-shifter aspect of Night World society. The history that Smith sets out was interesting, and I found myself wishing that she hadn't waited until so late in the series to include it. As mentioned in some of my other reviews of the books in this series, Smith's Night World was my first exposure to vampire-fiction, and it remains something of a guilty pleasure. There is certainly quite a bit of "teen cheese" here, but there is also a collection of engaging stories, featuring strong female characters. Keller and Galen's star-crossed love story may be resolved too easily, but it's a lot of fun getting to the conclusion. My only real complaint is that Strange Fate , the tenth and final installment of the series, which is described as "coming soon" at the back of Witchlight, never materialized. It's been more than ten years, the millennium has passed, and we still don't know how the story ends. For many years I was convinced that this was it, but I recently read that Smith has taken up writing again, after a long hiatus, and that the Night World story will soon be completed! Now that's a book I'm looking forward to reading...

Night WorldWitchlightL. J. Smith The mall was so peaceful. There was no hint of the terrible thing that was about to happen.Plot.Keller is a shapeshifter, a panther.Given the task to find and bring home the third Wild Power, what Keller didnt expect to find was her soulmate Galen.Things start getting bad when finding the Wild Power Iliana a stubborn seventeen year old who is refusing to believe that she is the Wild Power, and the Witch Child; she is determined to carry on with her normal
I liked this one as well, she has a way with magic and reality.

31 May 2019Witchlight is book 9 in the Night World series.We finally see that the dragons are waking up but they're not on Circle Daybreak's side. And who is the "witch who isn't a witch"??? Maya was a vampire but was previously a witch... Or maybe it is one of Hunter Redfern's daughters: Garnet or Roseclear..???Now I can't wait for Strange Fate to be released! People have been waiting for more than 1520 years for the book!
This is the Night World book I know least well. It was one of my favourites to re-visit.
