#BookSpotlight: Cursed Crowns by Catherine Doyle & Katherine Webber @kwebberwrites @doyle_cat @EMTeenFiction #CursedCrowns #CatherineDoyle #KatherineWebber

Good morning everyone. I received my copy of this beautiful looking book in the post yesterday. I’ve been hearing lots of great things about the Twin Crowns series so when I saw this on the Waterstones website, complete with beautiful spredges, I knew I had to get it. I’m looking forward to starting this series soon.

What’s your favourite Fantasy series?

Book Synopsis:

Bestselling authors and real-life sisters-in-law Catherine Doyle and Katherine Webber join forces on a compelling YA fantasy bursting with high-stakes adventure, romance and humour. Two queens, one throne. What can possibly go wrong . . .?

Twin queens Wren and Rose have claimed their crowns . . . but not everyone is happy about witches sitting on Eana’s throne.

Cool-headed Rose sets off on a Royal Tour to win over the doubters, but soon finds herself drawn to the Sunkissed Kingdom. Here secrets are revealed about those closest to her, and Rose finds her loyalties divided.

Meanwhile rebellious Wren steals away to the icy north to rescue their beloved grandmother, Banba. But when she accepts King Alarik’s deadly magical bargain in exchange for Banba’s freedom, the spell has unexpected – and far-reaching – consequences . . .

As an ancient curse begins to arise from the darkness, the sisters must come together and unite the crown. Their lives – and the future of Eana – depend on it.

Break the ice to free the curse,
Kill one twin to save another . . .
