Description
“Morgan Rice's imagination is limitless. In another series that promises to be as entertaining as the previous ones, A THRONE OF SISTERS presents us with the tale of two sisters (Sophia and Kate), orphans, fighting to survive in a cruel and demanding world of an orphanage. An instant success. I can hardly wait to put my hands on the second and third books!”
--Books and Movie Reviews (Roberto Mattos)
From #1 Bestseller Morgan Rice comes an unforgettable new fantasy series.
In A THRONE FOR SISTERS (Book one), Sophia, 17, and her younger sister Kate, 15, are desperate to leave their horrific orphanage. Orphans, unwanted and unloved, they nonetheless dream of coming of age elsewhere, of finding a better life, even if that means living on the streets of the brutal city of Ashton.
Sophia and Kate, also best friends, have each other’s backs—and yet they want different things from life. Sophia, a romantic, more elegant, dreams of entering court and finding a noble to fall in love with. Kate, a fighter, dreams of mastering the sword, of battling dragons, and becoming a warrior. They are both united, though, by their secret, paranormal power to read other’s minds, their only saving grace in a world that seems bent to destroy them.
As they each embark on a quest and adventure their own ways, they struggle to survive. Faced with choices neither can imagine, their choices may propel them to the highest power—or plunge them to the lowest depths.
A THRONE FOR SISTERS is the first book in a dazzling new fantasy series rife with love, heartbreak, tragedy, action, magic, sorcery, fate and heart-pounding suspense. A page turner, it is filled with characters that will make you fall in love, and a world you will never forget.
Book #2—A COURT FOR THIEVES—is also now available!
“[A THRONE FOR SISTERS is a] powerful opener to a series [that] will produce a combination of feisty protagonists and challenging circumstances to thoroughly involve not just young adults, but adult fantasy fans who seek epic stories fueled by powerful friendships and adversaries.”
--Midwest Book Review (Diane Donovan)

I requested to read this book off NetGalley, so I was excited when I saw the eARC on my Kindle library.
Love the cover.
The story's about two orphan girls, one wants to be among the aristocrats and the other wants to be a fighter. They escape an abusive orphanage and have to fight to live on the outside because well, they're different, and people like them are considered outcasts.
Loved the storyline, however, I did not take to the execution of the story because it felt like the story was all over the place and so much happened in a span of two days that I was left wondering what I got from the book. If you're into YA and love the whole Hunger Games or Game of Thrones feel then you'll feel as though something is lurking underneath this story,like I did. I hope the second book in the series has more depth.
This was such an interesting concept and I adored the writing and characters.
Well, I did not have any big expectations and that's why I was surprised, because this book is not really bad. Plot is quite short, but it's gripping. There are some cool characters (I personally like Sophie's parts, because it's just so much better than Kate's boring and stereotype parts). But all story it's just like big coincidence. And that's probably the worst thing on the book.
Thanks Netgalley and publisher for ARC!
I loved this way more than I expected to. I guess I'd describe it as Three Dark Crowns meets Heartless meets The Selection. It was super captivating, there was a lot of suspense, and the supernatural elements were really well written. It was fast-paced, which is always a bonus, but I think it was perhaps a little too fast paced in certain areas. That being said, it was only 186 pages, so for a short story I guess that's normal. This was a super fun read, and I can't wait to move on to the rest of the series!
