Kate Thompson · 3 novels · 1997–1999
Kate Thompson's Switchers trilogy follows Tess, a Dublin teenager who can shapeshift into any animal but will lose the power forever on her fifteenth birthday. In the opening book she and a fellow Switcher named Kevin race to stop ancient Arctic creatures from plunging the world into a new ice age, transforming into ever stranger shapes along the way. The two further volumes, Midnight's Choice and Wild Blood, continue their adventures on borrowed time, blending contemporary Irish settings with animal-shapeshifting fantasy for young readers.
