In the Hands of the Lord: The Life of Dallin H. Oaks by Richard E Turley

Sarenia is a land choked with turmoil, courtesy of its tyrannical king, Shirot Tybold. It's not surprising that a rebellious group of sorcerers has taken it upon themselves to overthrow him. While the King busies himself searching out and destroying unregistered sorcerers, the rebels are gathering their forces.

Those forces include Anna Thomas (the captain of a pirate ship), Kaylor Williams (a knight in the King's Guard), and Sarah Miller (a dragon rider), three best friends and powerful sorcerers who come from a place drastically different from the magic-filled land of Sarenia: Denver, Colorado. A power-hungry rebel sorcerer with an unshakable belief in an old prophecy is the reason they're so far from home.

But the prophecy calls for three others: a rebel agent is sent to Denver to find Tyler Martin, Alex Scott, and Max Harrison and bring them back to Sarenia.

What's so special about these six teenagers? Why does the prophecy call for them specifically when Sarenia is full of other sorcerers, some with far greater powers? And why should they cooperate with the rebels when they've been ripped out of their lives without warning or explanation and dumped in a world full of dangerous mythical creatures?

A slightly more adult version of such cross-world fantasy classics as the Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis and His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman, with fascinating characters and a dizzyingly complex new world, The Triplets is a stunning debut novel that you won't be able to put down.

The Six Sorcerers Trilogy is a young adult epic fantasy series about six teenagers who get sucked into a world full of sorcerers and dangerous mythical creatures and must find each other in order to find out who they are and why they were brought there. It's also about a rebellion against a sorcerer-hating tyrant that's on it's last legs, a sinister and supernatural plot that involves the gods themselves, and a country on the brink of starting a world war.
