This past week, Kendare Blake, author of the best-selling Three Dark Crowns series, revealed the cover to the third book in her quartet, TWO DARK REIGNS. The series was originally a duology, but performed so well that two more books were added to the line. The series that began with THREE DARK CROWNS and continued with ONE DARK THRONE will soon be joined by another sister, and fans of the series are even more eager to get their hands on it after seeing the gorgeous new cover.

The series revolves around sisters in a kingdom where triplets are always born to royalty. They are all potential queens and heirs to the crown. They each possess a unique form of magic. But only one sister can become queen...

TWO DARK REIGNS won't come out until September 4, 2018, but hopefully this beautiful new cover and short summary will tide you over until then!

SUMMARY:

In the third book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Three Dark Crowns series, a queen that has long been dead makes a chilling return to Fennbirn Island.

Queen Katharine has waited her entire life to wear the crown. But now that she finally has it, the murmurs of dissent grow louder by the day. There's also the alarming issue of whether her sisters are actually dead-or if they're waiting in the wings to usurp the throne.

Mirabella and Arsinoe are alive, but they're dealing with a nightmare of their own. Stuck on the mainland, where their powers have weakened, the girls are being visited by a specter they think may be the fabled Blue Queen, pointing her rotting, boney finger toward Fennbirn.

Jules, too, is in a strange place-still on the island but in disguise. And her only confidantes, a war-gifted girl named Emilia and her oracle friend Mathilde, are urging her to take on a role she can't imagine filling: a legion-cursed queen who will lead a rebel army to Katharine's doorstep. This is an uprising that the mysterious Blue Queen may have more to do with than anyone could have guessed-or expected.

ABOUT THREE DARK CROWNS:

In 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 stomachache. 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 sixteen, the battle begins.

The last queen standing gets the crown.
