Summary:
Tamora Pierce meets George R. R. Martin in this smart, political, medieval fantasy-thriller.
There is a new king on the throne of Tildor. Currents of political unrest sweep the country as two warring crime families seek power, angling to exploit the young Crown's inexperience. At the Academy of Tildor, the training ground for elite soldiers, Cadet Renee de Winter struggles to keep up with her male peers. But when her mentor, a notorious commander recalled from active duty to teach at the Academy, is kidnapped to fight in illegal gladiator games, Renee and her best friend Alec find themselves thrust into a world rife with crime, sorting through a maze of political intrigue, and struggling to resolve what they want, what is legal, and what is right.
Bio:

Those castle shots are beautiful and I love the cover. Good luck with book!
I always dig cinematic book trailers. Very nice. I like the sound of this one. :)
Looks exciting!
Love that book cover, and the trailer's cool.
I am so impressed! That is one heck of a trailer. Haha, she started writing at...2 a.m.!! :)
That looks way cool! I'm a sucker for a strong-girl-in-a boy's-world type books.
Good trailer--much better than most I've seen. ;)
I love it. =)
A strong heroine? I'm in! How cool was that trailer? Wow. So impressed! :D
I love book trailers and that was good one. Wish I had a budget for my own, but I did it with no money yet Carrie did a great job.
Because I read what you tell me to (because you know what I like) and you told me to read this!
Wow. Love the cover and the trailer!
Awesome! The storyline sounds cool too.
Wow, that was awesome. I've become hooked on "Once Upon a Time" and will probably start reading the genre when I catch up with my BTR list. This sounds good. Thanks, Peggy & Alex!
This is an incredible book trailer.
Best of luck Alex! Thanks Peggy! Julie
A nice trailer. Makes me want to be there.
Ooh! What fun! I love Tamora Pierce, and this one sounds like an amazing twist on a fun idea - female warriors! I'm WAY too chicken to be one, but I love to read about them :)
Fantastic trailer! Sounds like a terrific read!
Wow, you've come a long way, Alex, since the days you were in our forum. Good luck to you with your writing ventures :)
This sounds like a great book. I love a strong female character. The idea of a "Tamora Pierce meets George R. R. Martin" book sounds like my type of book. I'd love to read it. Thanks for the giveaway.
Awesome trailer! I love it when books take on that cinematic scope.
