Palace of the Twelve Pillars edition by Christina Weigand Religion Spirituality eBooks

A great fairy tale story, especially for boys, with two brothers at odds, magic, swordfights and intrigue. I found Brandan and Juachim bordered on trope at times, but I loved the rich worldbuilding and the adventure.

Palace of the Twelve Pillars edition by Christina Weigand Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews

Palace of the Twelve Pillars by Christina Weigand is a Christian fantasy tale about two childhood friends who become King of their own land and fall in love with the same woman. King Theodric follows Asha, the God of love and light. King Waldrom follows Sidramah, the God of destruction and evil. Lilia choose to marry King Theodric and become his queen. Together they rule Crato and raise two twin sons, Jaochim and Brandan. The two boys are opposite in personality but are twins who share that special bond to each other.
King Waldrom spends many years nursing his unrequited love for Lilia and plotting his revenge through dark magic. He is determined to have Queen Lilia as well as one of her son's as his own. Palace of Twelve Pillars begins when Theodric and Lilia's twin sons, Joachim and Brandan, now fifteen, are focusing on their lessons. Kings Waldrom decides to use the peace summit as the time to begin his revenge. The book follows the capture of one of the boys, as well as the hunt and battle that follows in an attempt to reunite the good family of Crato and restore peace and good will to their kingdom.
King Waldrom, ruler of Mahorg, has spent years practicing his dark magic but his plans go awry when he kidnaps the wrong Prince. The book goes on to tell of the journey of the two princes as they struggle to decide which is the right God and which is a false God, as well as their rightful place in the world. They are both thrown into an intense process of growing, maturing and command.
Along the way, they work with adepts, Kningrad, dragons, wizards and manticores as well as others. This is an interesting work of Christian Fiction, with themes of God vs Evil as well as free will to choose one's path as they struggle toward maturity. If you are a lover of fantasy and Christian Ficiton, you will enjoy Weigand's Palace of the Twelve Pillars.
Palace of the Twelve Pillars Book One is the beginning of a saga, which will lead the reader on an adventure of the coming of age for two young royals. Twin sons of the King of Crato, Joachim and Brandan are polar opposites of each other in behavior and attitude, yet they are two halves of a whole, sharing a special bond within their hearts. The lands of Crato are under attack from the forces of evil, led by a malevolent King who happens to have his heart set on having both an heir, and the princes' mother.
What is presented here is a fantasy novel with Christian allegories created by the God of Good - Asha; and the God of Evil - Sidramah. A battle of good and evil will occur unless peace can be brought to pass from a summit of the three kings, alas one king has other plans. Through the resulting chaos that is created from the summit's horrible results, the author leads us on a journey that involves the boys having to face their beliefs head on and to truly understand the depths of their faith in one god.
Weigand has crafted an intense cast of characters to play out this adventure, from the dynamic twins to the three kings that must attempt to rule and battle at the same time. Additional creatures and characters are delightfully developed and the story opens the doors to more adventures and more challenges. The overall plot is not truly original, as it contains many basic factors...kidnapping, facing your own demons, epic battles, and treachery. However, the author does weave together her own story with her own unique characters that is well written and an enjoyable read. I look forward to reading the second book in the series and the release of the third book coming soon.

**Note - I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Princes Brandan and Joachim travel different paths in life even though the twins seem to be alike. Brandan is frustrated with The Teachings of Asha and his tutors. He doesn't understand why he needs to know how to regenerate the land. To him, it seems so pointless and a waste of his time. On the other hand, Joachim is cheerful, helpful, and eager to learn everything. Meanwhile, Waldrom plots to kidnap Prince Brandan bring him to the side of evil. Instead of getting Brandan like Waldrom planned he got Joachim. What will happen to Joachim? Can Joachim be turned? What will Brandan do? Your answers await you in Palace of the Twelve Pillars.

This new to me author really showcased family dynamics. The characters and story were rich, bold, complicated, mysterious, unique, and flawed. I look forward to my next adventure with this author. I voluntarily read this ARC for an honest review.
I like a number of things about this book, and I seldom read fantasy. This is the first work of fiction from this author that I've read, and the description caught my interest.

I am grateful that this author used character and place names that I can pronounce in my head and remember. Many times I've tossed aside a book because the names were too odd, complex, or similar to one another.

I enjoyed the plot. It held just enough action and romance for my tastes.

I appreciate that the language and writing style are simple and straight-forward, and the book is shorter than some in length. I'm always on the lookout for books that teen boys might be interested in reading, and this is one I'd recommend to them. And to girls and adults, too.
A great fairy tale story, especially for boys, with two brothers at odds, magic, swordfights and intrigue. I found Brandan and Juachim bordered on trope at times, but I loved the rich worldbuilding and the adventure.
