Crown of Three

Written by J. D. Rinehart

Narrated by Kirby Heyborne

Family secrets combine with fantasy in this epic tale of battle, magic, strange creatures, power, and fate—a Game of Thrones for a younger audience.

Separated at birth triplets, Tarlan, Elodie, and Gulph, have grown up knowing nothing about each other. However, an ancient prophecy says that the three will one day be reunited, overthrow the king, and bring peace to the land.

Each of the triplets has a special power that sets him or her apart from other people. Tarlan can speak to animals. Elodie can hear the voices of ghosts. And Gulph can become invisible. But what use are these abilities if they can’t stay alive long enough to claim the throne?

As three new stars shine in the nighttime sky, events are driving them together, but will the triplets live? Let alone rule?

Reviews for Crown of Three

[lenorer-1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Read this book with my 10 yr old son and we both liked it.
It is the first book in a trilogy of a set of triplets who were separated at birth and each one finds out that they are part of a prophecy, and that is to rule the Kingdom of Toronia together. As they each find their way in the world and to each other, Elodie, Tarlan, and Gulph find people along the way that they can either trust or not and help them with their journey. We will be reading the rest of the series to find out what happens to the triplets and if they are able to fulfill their prophecy.

I guess I should have known when I read the synopsis that said this was like Game of Thrones for middle grade but this book was way to gruesome and violent for me. It didn't start out that bad but got steadily bloodier and gorier.
