Book summary:
Having already survived six years at the Tildor's top
military academy, sixteen-year-old Renee De Winter is determined to graduate,
training day and night to compete with her male classmates. When the boys
overpower her parries, she works harder. When a bully sabotages her gear, she
fights without it. But when an underground crime group captures her mentor for
its illegal gladiatorial games, she must choose between her career and her
conscience. Determined to penetrate the group's inner circles, Renee will leap
from academia to the crime filled streets, pick up a sword, and weigh law
against loyalty.

Although English is Alex’s primary language, it wasn’t her first.
Coming from Russia, Alex learned english in elementary school and fell in love
with reading when the school librarian put Tamora Pierce’s ALANNA into her
hands. Years later, in college, it was another book that re-united Alex with
russian, which she had shunned in adolescence. The Three Musketeers.* Alex
thanks both books, and the writers who created them.
Alex Lidell is a YA fantasy author. She is also a
photographer, a horseback rider, and a paramedic. The latter two go hand in
hand more often than one would like.
