Night-Star is a 25 book series meant for pre teens. in the
most recent Tv show written by The Author, Xanie's choice, gives this small town it's first on screen appearance.
Night-Star is a small town (900 people) in the middle of the
Mojave desert, partly because of the near by army base, and partly because of the mountain filled with radioactive waste.
It's filled with cryptos and spirts, but not that many Other World members. In fact the books only mention The David Twins, Lemon from the Big House, Grant Hiddlestone from Ivy Green, and The Sierra Pack. Although the stories include a hunted mansion, Tommyknockers, Jackalopes, Werewolves(Previously mentioned), Mermaids, and Kelpies.
The books star a young teen girl by the name Janice Dragoncloud. Her family of 15(6 older brothers, 6 younger brothers), have spent all of her life traveling the Americans Until they settle down in Night-Star. Where she quickly meets and befriends the local biker gang(Bicycles). The stories are told in past tense, and as if the narrator had been there.
This is of course the big plot twist in the last book. (Night-Star falls)
The last book tells the story of the town being abounded because of the dumped waste becoming unstable, Unknown to anyone at the time Lemon saves the day with her secret
powers. The friends still end up saying good bye just outside of their home town, and they all end up everywhere across the planet and quickly loose contact with each other.
The narrator is then reveled to be Janice, old and now a grandmother. she tells the story of her friend group, to a reporter covering the story of Jasper's life and suicide. It is also revealed that the other males from the town have not faired any better. all are dead but Smith David.
As for it's appearance in 'Xanie's Choice', it is quiet horrifyingly perfect.
The bike gang all wear modern versions of different decades, a perfect blend of modern and classic tech, and there is never anyone in the background.
Solomon Kingsly explains to Ron that the town shouldn't exist and P.O.U.W can't figure how it does or how it became this way in the first place.
A town in the middle of nowhere, where time lives with it's self and never moves. Where people come but hardly leave, and those who do, leave to never returns.
