Black Trillium by Marion Zimmer Bradley
4.0
Book 1 in the Saga of the Trillium (a collaboration between Marion Zimmer Bradley, Andre Norton, and Julian May).
Three princesses find themselves on the run after an evil sorcerer murders the rest of the royal family in his quest to take over their kingdom. Each princess has unique strengths and weaknesses and each must learn an important lesson before they can come back together to defeat the evil sorceror, Orogastus.
The eldest, Haramis, loves books and learning, but her quest for power may be her downfall. The middle sister, Kadiya, is a fearless warrior who fears her own weakness. The youngest sister, Anigel, is a girly-girl who, though skilled at forming relationships, does not trust her own strength.
Maybe not great literature, but an entertaining tale nonetheless.
