Cover reveal: The Cadet of Tildor by Alex Lidell

I love young adult fantasy, but there isn't enough of it! So when I heard about Alex Lidell's upcoming debut novel, The Cadet of Tildor, which will be published on January 10, 2013, I was like "Yay! More YA fantasy!" I am very excited to be participating in the cover reveal, and there are also two great contests you can enter, depending on who you are. The first one is for a swag bag and anyone can enter, and the second is for educators. You can find the Rafflecopter forms below the cover and blurb.

So, here it is: the cover and blurb!

There is a new king on the throne of Tildor. Currents of political unrest are sweeping through the country as two warring crime families seek power, hoping to exploit the young Crown's inexperience. At the Academy of Tildor, the training ground for the elite soldiers in the royal army, Cadet Renee de Winter is struggling to keep up with her male classmates. When her mentor, a commander recalled from active duty to teach at the Academy, is kidnapped for illegal gladiator games, Renee and her best friend Alec suddenly find themselves thrust into aworld rife with crime, sorting through a maze of political machinations, and struggling to resolve the difference between what they want, what is legal, and what is right.
