The Third Sun (Daughter of the Phoenix Book One) Kindle Edition

by Victoria J. Price (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 82 ratings

"An easy five stars. Perfect for fans of Laini Taylor, Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J. Maas, and Cassandra Clare, this book has all the ingredients for rampant obsession." - Amazon review

The sun is dying, the windows to Earth are closing. Time is running out.

After the death of her sister, eighteen-year-old Fia Aldridge knows one thing for certain: she doesn’t belong anywhere. But then she tumbles into the parallel world of Ohinyan—a world where angels and witches walk amongst mankind.

An ancient darkness is taking advantage of the dying sun, and Ohinyan needs Fia’s help. She soon learns that her arrival is not entirely by accident and that Alexander, leader of angels, is not the guardian she thought he was.

Torn between their feelings and their duties, together they must find a way to return Fia to London before the darkness consumes her and she is trapped in Ohinyan forever.


A richly woven tale drawing on ancient myths and legends, bursting with adventure, elemental magic, angels, witches, shapeshifters and slow burn romance. Fans of Brigid Kemmerer, Laini Taylor and Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials will devour The Third Sun: Daughter of the Phoenix Book One.

"A fictional world I could only dream of. What a whirlwind of a fantasy. This is the stuff of dreamers and wild imaginations. A world developed so eloquently and with such vivid description. Characters with storylines so diverse and yet intertwined, and personalities relatable and with purpose. A plot that keeps you wanting to know more time and time again. Just a wonderful book." - Amazon review

"This book had me completely captivated! Wanting to keep turning the page...what would it be like if other worlds existed within our own? An escape into the mystical and magical, a must read." - Amazon review

"Something special. A book that showed us a glimpse into what it would be like if other worlds existed with our own....I truly felt myself in every scene. I’ve read this book twice now and I’ve devoured it with love both times." - Amazon review

4 out of 5 stars
Wonderful start to the series!
I am not an avid reader of YA fantasy but I really enjoyed reading this book! The story is gripping, the world building is easy to follow, and the characters are entertaining. The author narrates the story in a wonderful manner. It is simple yet exciting. The story also balances the world building, characters, romance, and adventure in a nice manner. I like reading about the Mizunese and their culture. The author wrote the adventure elements very well. In fact, I was at the edge of my seat on some scenes when they fight the Senkahs or when Fia hears Erebus talking to her. Fia is great in the lead. I loved how she puts herself in danger to help others. Its always great to read an action heroine who can take charge. There are many supporting characters that I also liked like Noor, Arion, Malachai, Altair, Runa and Maab. Lorn as devious as the villain and was so entertaining to read. However, there are a few minor things which had room for improvement. For instance, I wasn’t fond of the instant love between Fia and Alexander. While it is fun at times, I found it unnecessary, especially during a suspense moment. Also, I felt like we didn’t get a backstory of Sophie and Alexander. Fia keeps thinking of Sophie, but I wish we had more details about the incident. Other than that, I loved reading this! I am so excited to read the continuation to see how they fight Erebus. Overall, “The Third Sun” is a very nice fantasy novel.

    THE THIRD SUN by Victoria J. Price (@victoria_jprice) is a YA paranormal fantasy rife with angels, witches, shapeshifters, and a whole array of exotic, magical creatures. The journey begins when our lead, Fia, falls into a parallel world and meets the angel Alexander. On this world, Ohinyan, the sun is dying, and its inhabitants await the arrival of a new sun, the third sun (per the title). Amidst political turmoil, brewing darkness, and a mystical prophecy, Fia searches for home, for heart, and for understanding.

    Everything about this book is painstakingly well done, from the romance with Alexander to the heart-pounding action sequences. Price weaves familiar threads in original ways, seamlessly blending beloved YA elements with innovative allure. The book reads like a movie with crisp prose, expert plotting, and epic concepts. It’s immersive and mesmerizing, poetic and polished, a lyrical saga of love and loss and healing.

    THE THIRD SUN is an easy five stars. Perfect for fans of Laini Taylor, Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J. Maas, and Cassandra Clare, this book has all the ingredients for rampant obsession.

    Thought the premise of this was pretty interesting, especially with angels and witches. There's no religious plot, the archangel Gabriel is mentioned but it throughly fantasy. A dying sun on a planet that only a human (?) can help with.

    It reminded me a but of Twilight for some reason, don't ask why.

    The Third Sun was an exciting fantasy read by a new to me author!

    We follow Fia as she falls in to the world of Ohinyan. Filled with angels, witches, and strange creatures that aren’t all friendly, Fia struggles to stay alive while fighting her feelings for Alexander and figuring out her role in the upcoming battle against the Makya.

    This was a fun, fast paced adventure filled with great characters, romance, and so much more. I didn’t want to put this book down. I felt like I was traveling alongside Fia and her friends as they traversed the length of Ohinyan.

    This was a great start to a series and I will definitely be diving into book two soon!

    Highly recommend! This lovely fantasy novel is a beautiful glimpse into a new fictional universe. The world building is really strong, and Price’s characters are genuine, with rich backgrounds and histories. There are thoughtful, subtle homages to classic fantasy within the unique landscape of Ohinyan, making it a joy to read for devoted and brand new readers of the genre. I think new books in the series are either just out or coming soon. I finished book 1 last night and I’m heading over to download book 2 as soon as I can. Definitely recommend!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good fantasy story
    Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2020
    My favorite part of this story was the world building, which was rich and very deep. It kind of reminds me a bit of the world in Avatar the Last Airbender, with some of the element affinity and with the primary antagonists. This could have a really interesting fantasy story arc, and although some of the story is a bit classic fantasy (evil force rising again with all creatures called to fight him), there are some unique elements like the windows, the choice of races, and the multiple sun concepts.

    As I was interested in this story for the fantasy story aspect, the romance portion was a bit overdone (especially in the beginning) for me, because I didn't expect it to have such a heavy romance angle. But that is more my story preference than anything wrong with the story. My only other complaint is that Fia and Alexander both seem to be Mary Sue's or at least have strong elements/potential for it, although Fia is at least aware that she's not really sure what she's doing even as everyone around her seems to glorify her for just existing. Also Alexander/the angels not needing to wear shirts or feel cold feels a bit forced cliche for the romance part that bothered me, especially since the other humanoid species all wear shirts.

    I am curious to learn more about Fia's backstory on Earth, specifically on her sister and parents. I thought the continuance of her grief well done and very realistic, as many fictional stories often use grief as a plot point and then just forget about it. I liked the themes of the story on love and acceptance and belonging.

    I received a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

    The Third Sun is the story of a young girl who accidentally falls into another word with all kinds of fantasies. This story had me captivated right from the beginning. Fia, the protogonist had become one of my favorites so far. Her feelings were well portrayed and beautifully explained in a way that let's readers to easily relate to them. And the story line in itself was very interesting. It was a well planned out fantasy story that deserves to be read by every fantasy lovers out there. I highly recommend this book!

    The Prequel, The Angel’s Calling, had me waiting in anticipation for the release of the Third Sun which has been a delight to read.
    Strong characters in this book lead us through loss, love and duty which are prevalent in today’s society.

    “And if you are safe, then you can build a life together when this is all over”.

    Thank you Vicky for a truly endearing book at this challenging time. I was gripped to the last and look forward very much to the next in your trilogy.
