Sneak Peeks

Strange Fate Preview

on 14 June 2012. Posted in Sneak Peeks

This is an excerpt that shows how Ash Redfern (who has been alerted by Aradia, the Maiden of the Witches, that the Apocalypse, due nearly a year ago and forgotten now by most, is actually going to come) begins to rescue the NIGHT WORLD soulmate couples from the enemies who, for unknown reasons, are targeting the youngest generation of Harmans and Redferns. Ash’s last rescue will be of Mary-Lynnette, and will appear in the book, so the story Those Who Favor Fire will be finished in STRANGE FATE (which I hope to finish this calendar year). – L. J.

Thank you for the teaser, I've been waiting years for STRANGE FATE. I fell in love with all the soulmate couples and it's going to be a blast to finally get an ending to the NIGHT WORLD.

I'm not sure if I'm gonna be happy or bawl my eyes out because it's over.... The books is so loveable and amazing... I don't want them to end. Sadly however I've seen how things end up when creators don't know when to end... L.J. is a very wise and Amazing woman when it comes to writing her stories. I'm following her to the very end of her career ^_^ LOVE YOU L.J. !!!

When we got to see the characters from the previous books again in 'Soulmate', that was one of the highlights of the series for me. I can't wait to catch up with them all again in 'Strange Fate'! I've been waiting for it to be published for over a decade now, and am SO excited that there's a chance it'll be finished by the end of this year, and to have seen a preview! Thank you! :)

Mrs. Smith, I love love love love this series but I bought these books 4 years ago and have been waiting to read the last book. I even read all your other books til you completed your last book of this series. I under stand your a very busy woman but 4 years is a long time to wait for a book. I've never complained about any of your novel, and again your an amazing writer, but please finish the novel as fast as you can I can't wait forever hopefully the release date is a real one!
Your fan,
Kate

I don't mean to be rude, but that wasn't very nice. Some people have been waiting for 10+ years, and they don't complain. From what I know, Lisa's had some family trouble in the past, and later she had to finish VD. Strange Fate is longer than a 1000 pages and Lisa has A LOT of things to be put in it, so just be patient. The book is going to be amazing. If you're not on the forum yet, you should join.

the... oh, say 14 years that I've been waiting for this book has flown by. i actually spent 8 of those years thinking it would never be published.

authors who write epics like this will be do have large gaps between books, i'd personally prefer to wait for a quality book thats over a thousand pages, than have a new book out every year that uses so much repetetive filler material that its 400 pages really equal 50.

I don't want to sound like an undedicated fan or that I have been waiting for the last ten years for it to come out. But I have been waiting for four years not nearly as long as some. I really wanted to read this but I have resisted the urge. I don't want to read it and be left with wanting more, because as it is I'm on the edge of my seat from reading the sneak peak in The Hollow. I hope it will come out soon or we get a release date soon. Thanks for all your hard work.

+1 # Love, Love, LOVE THIS! But I have a question....... .. — Jillian Blackheart 2012-06-27 11:20

Hello everyone, I have been an avid L.J. Smith fan for many, many years. I have all the original print Night World series, the original print Dark Visions, The Forbidden Game, The Secret Circle and The Vampire Diaries. I also bought them in the new print so I did not ruin my originals seeing as I like to read things over a million times. Anyway, this is the first time I have looked at this website since L.J. Smith resurfaced a couple years ago. I am still confused about the ghost writing thing. There was a preview for Strange Fate in the back of the 1st *new* Vampire Diaries book and I was so saddened when I read it. But now reading this I am so happy, Night World has always been my favorite and I now have hope that it will actually be a continuation of the story I so loved for years. So sorry to take so long to get to the question but what was that excerpt if anyone knows what I am talking about and is it a part of this new preview? Because I am sincerely hoping that it isn't.

+1 # Hi Jillian — Christina Crowley 2012-06-27 17:18

By "new" Vampire Diaries I assume you mean the Hunters arc which are the ghostwritten ones. I refuse to read those so I have no idea which preview you are referring to. But I do know that there were a couple old previews circulating so I'm guessing it was one of those.

In these previews, Sarah Strange was going to dream about Brionwy and Crispy in a post apocalyptic World. These dreams turned into their own story which is going to be a separate book called The Last Lullaby.

For a sneak peek of The Last Lullaby go here 74.220.217.129/.../...

Lisa answers many interesting questions and gives a synopsis of The Last Lullaby here 74.220.217.129/.../...

In Strange Fate, Sarah will instead dream of Ash rescuing the soulmate couples. I hope I've cleared things up for you.

Since you are new to the website, I'd like to invite you to join the Forum. There are lots of fun discussions, games, polls, etc. There is also a whole section where Lisa visits to answer fan questions. I hope to see you there.

Don't worry. Kindle is wrong. There isn't a publication date for Strange Fate because Lisa is still writing it. But it will definitely be out waaaaay before 2030.

Other sites sometimes put up dates as a place holder. Keep checking back on this site for accurate publication dates.

Thanks so much for the preview! It was much needed after waiting a decade for Strange Fate.

But I hope that it comes out by next year; I really want to know what happens next!

L J Smith is still writing it 'Strange Fate' - it says so on the website :') It's because it's going to be reaaaaaally long and include in all the soulmates and the story of Sarah Strange with her visions of Ash rescuing soulmates. But the Last Lullaby's publish date will be announced soon by l J because she has found a publisher to represent it.

At first I was freaking out, I was like no she isn't, she won't, and thankfully you didn't; although I know it's not out of your reasoning to do so since I spent a good deal of time reading many of your works over and over again. TFG for one and the ending of that trilogy pulled at my heartstrings dramatically.
Another example would the third book to VD, which made me cry my eyes out. In all honesty though I think you should have ended the way you intended to and not given into the fans, even if I was one of the fans upset with the ending. You're such an amazing writer, I hope someday I can touch people with my words as your words have touched me.

She is very close to completing it, there is no date yet, and there will not be a date until it is in the publishers hands. Only trust dates you seen on THIS WEBSITE. Sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble use "Dummy Dates". NOTE: The "dummy Dates" you see on those sites DO NOT COME FROM MISS SMITH and NEVER HAVE. In a recent email response to a fan, Miss Smith hopes that Strange Fate will be ready and out sometime next year.

Hi LJ! On the Chapters website it says your book came out April 1st 2013, but it also says unavailable in any stores. Why is this? I really want to read this book, so it would be aweosme if you could let me know! .

She is very close to completing it, there is no date yet, and there will not be a date until it is in the publishers hands. Only trust dates you seen on THIS WEBSITE. Sites like Amazon, Chapters snd Barnes & Noble use "Dummy Dates". NOTE: The "dummy Dates" you see on those sites DO NOT COME FROM MISS SMITH and NEVER HAVE. In a recent email response to a fan, Miss Smith hopes that Strange Fate will be ready and out sometime next year.

Dear Ms. Smith
I have been waiting 15 years for the last book having been an avid fan as a teen. I would very much like to finish the series as I enjoyed it so much when I was young. Are you actually planning on updating a release date? It is absurd that I even still wonder about it. Btw Barnes and noble have the release year as 2030.
Still ridiculously hoping that this book will get written and published in my lifetime.

I have also been waiting since the books were 1st released and I am quite content with waiting. A lot of hurdles have come her way and she is only human. After a terrible family loss, she had writers block for several years. Please take time to read the information around this website. She is very close to completing it, there is no date yet, and there will not be a date until it is in the publishers hands. Only trust dates you seen on THIS WEBSITE. Sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble use "Dummy Dates". NOTE: Those "dummy Dates" you see on those sites DO NOT COME FROM MISS SMITH and NEVER HAVE SO IT IS UNFAIR TO BLAME HER FOR THE LAPSED RELEASE DATES. AGAIN, LJ SMITH NEVER GAVE A RELEASE DATE FOR STRANGE FATE. In a recent email response to a fan, Miss Smith hopes that Strange Fate will be ready and out sometime next year.

Dont get me wrong I am excited about Strange Fate and I love love love the series. BUT I just dont understand why it has taken so long to publish. Also was it published before? I have heard so many different things about why it is still not out. Has Ms. Smith ever herself came out and stated a reason for this? I have waited for over 10 years now. Please get this book out and published!!!!!

Again I understand the loss of a family member, writers block, but it has been so long. I just read from another comment the Ms. Smith plans on having it out next year? Please I hope so. About once a year I check to see if its out yet or on any new info. Drives me crazy that I still dont know the ending.

Strange Fate has NEVER been released. Book selling sites like Amazon and B&N; use what I like to call "dummy dates" which DO NOT AND NEVER HAVE COME FROM MISS SMITH.

Miss Smith also went through a personal health issues and was under contract to write TVD with deadlines when she resurfaced in 2009. Since TVD was a "work for hire" in a package book deal, she didn't own the rights and had to get the books done when they told her too. If she wouldn't have done that, she could have lost TVD earlier than she did. When Harper/Alloy pulled that evil business with removing her from the series and giving them to ghostwriters, it devastated her and took her awhile to rebound from the loss. When she did recover, she no longer had contractual road blocks preventing her from working on Strange Fate. She has been actively working on it for about 2 yrs now.

I would also like to note, if you read through her blogs and other little sections on THIS WEBSITE, you can find more in-depth explanations, the above is a very cut down version of all the info here and in her Official Forum.

I just got the first three books from a friends from work and got really into them. Then I find out that the last story hasn't even been finish yet, this is such a cliff hanger. I hope that I don't have to wait very long to read the ending of this series. I think it will drive me a bit crazy if I have to wait a long time for it. From the preview in the last book I read it sounds like it's going to be really good.

Just saw a comment that said they've been waiting 10 years for this book, that's ridiculous how dare any author do that to their fans, that's disrespect. I've only been waiting for it maybe 4 years but 10?! nah by the time it comes out people won't be as into it as they would have been. Her and her publishers need to get that fixed, this series is too amazing to not have a proper ending.

you know what I'm tired of... people complaining about when this book is going to come out. sure i want to read his book just as much as the next person. But everyone is just attacking the author. if you people are so mad about this then why don't they write the book and edit it themselves maybe then they will be happy. Im sure it would be a nice tory but not anywhere close to how well L.J. smith will write it. So ya calm down people!!!!!!!!
