Meet the Author

Jacquelyn Frank is currently living in North Carolina, and has been writing romantic fiction ever since she picked up her first teen romance at age 13. With four sisters and other family scattered up and down the Eastern Seaboard, and a history of living all across the USA herself, she still always finds ways to give a nod to her native New York in her work. A former Sign Language Interpreter and substitute teacher, she is a powerful advocate of reading and writing. She is known for her persistent gifts of books to her nieces and nephews, as well as all the other children in her life, in an effort to see them love both as much as she does. She believes there is nothing more rewarding than the imagination and all it inspires, and nothing more tragic than illiteracy.

    An enjoyable story line

    Below ground in Alaska is a concealed city that humans are unaware of its existence. It is the place where the Shadowdwellers race reside. The underground is darkness as even the slightest ray of light can kill these people.

    Sanctuary priest Sagan is kidnapped by a serial torturer killer and her minions; they bring him to the house of Valera, a born witch. She uses her magic to kill his captors shocking the underground priest that a human magic user has no taint of evil oozing from her.

    Magnus, the head of Sanctuary, wants Sagan to bring his beloved Valera to the "dweller" city to demonstrate to the Night Riders that not all magic practitioners are evil. The senate governing the Shadowdwellers is trying to force Chancellor Malaya to marry a person of their choice and produce an heir. Her bodyguard Guin, who has protected and loved her (unrequitedly) for fifty years, detests his beloved having to marry a man not of her choosing. Unable to cope he leaves her for the first time in five decades. His departure makes Malaya realizes what she has taken for granted and how much she loves her bodyguard. Acadia, whose uses another name in the senate, attacks Magnus' wife and Guin, leaving it to the outsider Valera to mitigate damages although few Shadowdwellers trust her.

    Thus ends the exhilarating Shadowdweller trilogy (see ECSTASY and RAPTURE) and while the enjoyable story line fails to wrap up everything in a nice tidy package, readers will gain much PLEASURE from this fine entry that hopes for peace amidst the night walker species. The romantic subplot between Guin and Malaya is fascinating as he tries to hide his feelings especially his ire over what the leaders are doing to his beloved while she fails to see him beyond a trusty protector and to a degree friend. The other romantic subplot is also terrific as the human witch and the Shadowdweller are natural enemies. Jacquelyn Frank is a master fantasist who makes her paranormal earth seem real with a spark of hope for peace, but frankly this is an author known for her twists and spins.

    A Great Book, But a Little Misleading

    Ok, first I have to say that I absolutely love all of Frank's books in the Shadowdweller and Nightwalker series. If you read the back cover or online synopsis of this book they lead you to believe that this book is about Sagan's story and Malaya's. The author devoted about 20% of the book to Sagan, and the other 80% to Malaya. While Malaya and Guin's story was still enjoyable, it would have been way better to read more about what happens to Sagan and Valera. I kept waiting for her to switch back to them. I felt like there were so many unanswered questions about quite a few of her characters and she sort of kept us hanging. I really do hope that this truly was not the last book in this series.

    Rushed ending to fantastic series

    Fairly good story, but I have to admit I was expecting a lot more, after having so thouroughly enjoyed her previous two novels in this seris. There's no closure, no sense of things being wrapped up like there was with her Nightwalker seris. I find myself wondering what happened to some of the characters she started developing in the first two novels. What about Brendon, or Tristan? What of Trace and Ashla's baby? How does the whole human which play into the Nightwalker scenario. And I felt Sagan's story kind of got the shaft. It felt rushed throughout. I almost wonder why Frank bothered. Why not just focus on Malaya and Guin - that was the story she obviously wanted to tell. I just felt it was a rushed ending to an excellent series! Oh well - I guess we'll see what the 'aliens' bring next!

    Two stories... but would have been better as one

    I was not expecting this to be two seperate stories. Both were ok but I wish Segan's story would have been just as long as Malaya's. Segan's part ended so quickly. It left me with a million questions. It would have been great to see Val entering his world, meeting people, etc. Not to mention how people reacted to the changes in Segan's status. It left me wishing there was more but not finding it. Disappointing.

    Good Continuation of the series!

    Loved this book! I wasn't sure I was going to like a story on Sagan - I thought he was a rather boring addition to the last book. But I should have had faith in Frank, all her books are phenomenal! And of course, I couldn't wait for the story of Guin - he is hot!

    Simply perfect

    As usual I opened the book and did not put it down until I finished. The title says it all. I had read the first two books and was not disappointed by this volume. It would have been even better to develop Sagan's story though. Overall, an excellent read.

    A Little Confused

    This book wasn't what I expected. I loved Guin and Malaya's story as it went through the other two books. I think that with the story of the human Witch added in, it felt a little too rushed. Don't know where she is going with it.

    A Great Read...

    Jacquelyn Frank is an excellent writer. This book is just as captivating as the first. I would recommend it to everyone. If you liked reading the first in this series, you are definately going to like the second and third. Enjoy!!

    I Also Recommend:

    Underdeveloped

    In trying to put two story arcs into one, Frank's latest suffers from underdeveloping both arcs. Sagan's willing flout of the laws in a matter of hours after decades of denial is nonsense. Malaya's story had all the makings of a great telling but having devoted 30 pages to Sagan, the now-requited love story also fell flat.
