The forest is more dangerous than ever in this highly-anticipated, pulse-pounding, and swoon-worthy conclusion to the bestselling Luminaries trilogy.
Winnie Wednesday’s future is looking bright. Hemlock Falls is no longer hunting the werewolf, she and Erica Thursday are tentative friends, and Winnie finally knows exactly where she stands with Jay Friday.
With everything finally on track, Winnie is looking forward to the Nightmare Masquerade, a week-long celebration of all things Luminary. But as Luminaries from across the world flock to the small town, uninvited guests also arrive. Winnie is confronted by a masked Diana and charged with an impossible task—one that threatens everything and everyone Winnie loves.
As Winnie fights to stop new enemies before time runs out, old mysteries won't stop intruding. Her missing father is somehow entangled with her search for hidden witches, and as Winnie digs deeper into the long-standing war between the Luminaries and the Dianas, she discovers rifts within her own family she never could have imagined.
What does loyalty mean when family and enemies look the same?
Review:
Whispering Night is the final book in The Luminaries Series by Susan Dennard. Each cover of this series gets even darker and unique as we unravel what is happening in Hemlock Falls. In previous books, Winnie Wednesday’s character sometimes felt younger than she was supposed to be, and her inner monologue reflected it. In this one, Winnie is confident, fearless, and a loyal Wednesday bear. One of the things readers will love most about this final book is we get answers to all the questions we had in this series. Who is the werewolf, who is the Dianas, what is their end goal, and where are these clues from her dad leading her? Whispering Night does not disappoint in the plot-twisting, epic ending, or final book category. With the Dianas, Luminaries, and monsters, this book is perfect for those who love urban fantasy.
About Susan Dennard
Susan Dennard has come a long way from small-town Georgia. Working in marine biology, she got to travel the world–six out of seven continents, to be exact (she’ll get to you yet, Asia!)–before she settled down as a full-time novelist and writing instructor.
She is the author of the Something Strange and Deadly series, as well as the New York Times bestselling Witchlands series, and she also hosts the popular newsletter for writers, the Misfits & Daydreamers. When not writing, she is slaying darkspawn (on her PS4) or earning bruises at the dojo.
She lives in the Midwestern US with her French husband, two spoiled dogs, and two grouchy cats.
