About this listen

Three dark queens

are born in a glen,

sweet little triplets

will never be friends

Three dark sisters

all fair to be seen,

two to devour

and one to be Queen

Every generation on the island of Fennbirn, a set of triplets is born: three queens, all equal heirs to the crown and each possessor of a coveted magic. Mirabella is a fierce elemental, able to spark hungry flames or vicious storms at the snap of her fingers. Katharine is a poisoner, one who can ingest the deadliest poisons without so much as a stomach ache. Arsinoe, a naturalist, is said to have the ability to bloom the reddest rose and control the fiercest of lions.

But becoming the Queen Crowned isn't solely a matter of royal birth. Each sister has to fight for it. And it's not just a game of win or lose...it's life or death. The night the sisters turn 16, the battle begins. The last queen standing gets the crown.

The different perspectives are written really well and the performance is great. Definitely worth a read I’ve downloaded the second book already!

Loved it!

Such an amazing book! I thought I’d give this a try as I had read / listened to other titles from Blake (different series). I essentially went in blind, but this did not disappoint, I’m hooked from book one and will be listening to the series!!
A shout out to the reader, she made all the characters and the story come alive!

Hooked from the beginning

I tried multiple times to finish this book but the narrator was so awfully boring I couldn’t make it.

The worst narrator
