This is one of the books that I bought when I was younger and just never got around to reading. Then I did and it was really good. Good characters with a fast pace in a beautiful fantasy setting, what's not to love.

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.

VERY MUCH Game of Thrones for children. I didn't like Game of Thrones. This has the writing of GoT dumbed down but the violence and tragedy left. That's the worst of both worlds.

There isn't anything really outstanding here, but equally there's nothing really bad. Triplets, hidden from the world so that they can grow and fulfill a prophecy, magic, evil queens, battles and fantastical creatures will all appeal to the middle grade reader. My biggest complaint is that the female triplet (Elodie) is pretty much a brat and needs to grow more than her two brothers. Why that was needed is beyond me - making her a more likeable character wouldn't have been difficult.

Een erg spannend, maar vooral erg meesleurend verhaal. Ik raakte er echt in verdiept en ben zeker benieuwd naar het volgende boek.
