Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake

 



Fernnbirn Island needs its queen to be strong, to show no mercy, and to kill its sisters if she wants to wear the royal crown.  Every sixteen years at the beginning of the Ascension Year the royal triplets will have to kill the weaker ones to show the islanders that they have what it takes to be their new queen. The Ascension Year is their opportunity to showcase years of training, to use their magic, to find a suitor, and become a queen. 

This year three very different sisters will have to fight for their lives- Mirabella who can control the elements but can't erase the memories of her little sisters, Katharine growing weaker every day after years of poisonings, and Arsinoe a naturalist living a lie hoping to find her real power before it is too late. 

Defiance, hidden agendas, love stories, shady characters, magic, power, and family all come together in the first book of this trilogy. Dark Crown will have you on the edge of your seat rooting for each sister.
