From Nebula and BSFA Award finalist Jendia Gammon writing as J. Dianne Dotson,  comes the The Amethyst Lantern Trilogy.
 
Enter the twilight lunarpunk world of Glimmerbight, where humanity has learned to live beneath the stars, ancient lighthouses guard forgotten secrets, heroic animals gather in hidden societies, and wonder may be the greatest defense against the darkness.
 
J. Dianne Dotson’s Amethyst Lantern Trilogy is a lush, whimsical saga of ecological hope, found family, mystery, and adventure set in a world transformed by climate catastrophe, and by the people who refused to surrender their imaginations.
 
In The Inn at the Amethyst Lantern (2023), a Nebula and BSFA Award finalist, Gentian “Gen” Lightworth receives an impossible invitation from the long-shuttered inn beneath Glimmerbight’s mysterious violet lighthouse. Together with her friends, Gen begins unraveling secrets that reach deep into the town’s forgotten history, and discovers that the strange forces awakening around them could threaten Night Living itself.
 
The BSFA Award finalist The Secret of the Sapphire Sentinel (2025) takes Gen and the Fireflies beyond Glimmerbight and beneath the waves, where the mysterious Gallant Twilight Society leads them into a world of bioluminescent lairs, lost legacies, mutated creatures, and dangerous secrets. As old threats take new forms, Gen must learn what it means to lead, whom she can trust, and how much stronger people become when they face the darkness together.
 
Then The Dawn of Dusk and Twilight (Oct. 2026) returns to the beginning. Long before Gen and the Fireflies, four brilliant, eccentric friends—Andi, Bendin, Bozzard, and Pim—gathered at a coastal inn while the old world tipped toward catastrophe. Their discoveries and choices would help shape everything that followed: Glimmerbight, the Amethyst Lantern, and a new way of living amid the ruins of what came before.
 
Together, these three novels tell the story of a world facing collapse, the people who imagine something beyond it, and the generations who inherit the light they leave behind. Romantic, adventurous, bittersweet, and alive with strange beauty, The Amethyst Lantern Trilogy is for readers who believe that even at the edge of catastrophe, friendship, art, science, community, and wonder can illuminate another way forward.
