"Your goal when playing it will be to win the crown of the kingdom of Anachronia, using all your wits, skills and talents. The people will only give the crown to someone who can do three things: end the threat of the three-headed dragon terrorizing the land, unite the two warring clans that live there, and help the people of Anachronia flourish." Rise of the Fire Tamer by Kailin Gow





Trailer Tuesday is a Weekly Blog Post hosted by Blood Sweat and Books. Each week I will choose a Trailer or 2 to showcase. I'm going to mix it up a bit different than Kristin.  It will either be for an upcoming book and/or movie that I'm excited about. Or it will be a book trailer that has already been released. I love Trailers! I could sit for hours and watch them. :) They can make me so hyped for a book or movie if done right.  I hope you enjoy my selections and if you want to participate in the next or other upcoming trailer Tuesdays go here and find out more about it. Make sure to leave a link in the comments so I can check yours out as well.





Revolution 19 by Gregg Rosenblum

Published on Jan 7, 2013 on YouTube

"At first we called it system-wide malfunctions when the robots stopped fighting at exactly 2:15PM Greenwich Mean Time, August 17, 2071. They had been designed by humans to fight our wars, but for twenty-two hours the battlefields were silent. We called it a miracle and the beginning of a new peace. Then when the bots began killing again, now targeting their human commanders, we shook our heads and called it fatal programming errors. When, a day later, the skies over cities on six continents grew dark with warships, we began to understand. And when the bombs rained down and then legions of bot footsoldiers marched into the burning ruins, killing any humans who resisted and dragging away the rest of us, we finally called it what it was: Revolution."

Kevin, Nick, and Cass lived with their parents in a secret human community outside the bounds of robot-controlled society, until the day their presence was detected and the entire village was wiped out. Now, the three siblings are determined to discover whether there are any survivors who were taken prisoner by the machines. To do so they must venture into the heart of the robot's city, where humans live under the regimented command of the machines, and where one misstep could be their last.

Created in conjunction with Alloy and award-winning writer/directors Howard Gordon and James Wong, Revolution 19 is an action-filled epic...and an entertaining and cinematic thriller unlike anything else.

You liked Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi? Then you will have to read Destroy Me (Shatter Me #1.5)


Published on Dec 17, 2012 from YouTube

The official trailer for DESTROY ME, an e-original novella in Tahereh Mafi's Shatter Me series.

In SHATTER ME, Juliette escaped from The Reestablishment by seducing Warner-and then putting a bullet in his shoulder. But Warner is not that easy to get rid of . . .

Back at the base and recovering from his near-fatal wound, Warner must do everything in his power to suppress any mention of a rebellion in the sector. Still as obsessed with Juliette as ever, his first priority is to find her, bring her back, and dispose of Adam and Kenji, the two traitors who helped her escape. But when Warner's father, the Supreme Commander of The Reestablishment, arrives to correct his son's mistakes, it's clear that he has much different plans for Juliette. Plans Warner simply cannot allow.

Set after SHATTER ME and before the spellbinding sequel, UNRAVEL ME, DESTROY ME is told from the perspective of Warner, the ruthless leader of Sector 45.

I hope you will check back next week and see what teaser and trailer I have for you. Leave me a comment if you like. Thanks!!

(Book Description Amazon)
Publication Date: October 10, 2012
For far too long these sailor-drowning, ship-sinking sea sirens have been portrayed as happy, peaceful creatures who want nothing more than to fall in love with a prince and live happily ever after. Undertow is an unconventional twist on one of the oldest mythological creatures known to man.



My Teaser:

"The shape of his fin reminded Zoe of a whale's tail, but it was translucent and spiny like ocean fish she had seen in aquariums, with two long spins growing from the tips of his flukes. The skin that slide from the base of his tail to his waist looked smooth, like snakeskin, but she could tell by the way the sunlight glimmered off it that it was made of thousands of tiny scales, the predominant colour an iridescent peacock green." page 15-16 Undertow by Kiri R. Newton

Scarlet (Lunar Chronicles #2)
by Marissa Meyer 
Expected publication: February 5th 2013 by Feiwel and Friends

Cinder returns in the second thrilling installment of the New York Times-bestselling Lunar Chronicles. She’s trying to break out of prison—even though if she succeeds, she’ll be the Commonwealth’s most wanted fugitive.


Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit’s grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn’t know about her grandmother and the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother’s whereabouts, she has no choice but to trust him, though he clearly has a few dark secrets of his own.


As Scarlet and Wolf work to unravel one mystery, they find another when they cross paths with Cinder. Together, they must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen who will do anything to make Prince Kai her husband, her king, her prisoner.








A funny new twist on a classic love story, WARM BODIES is a poignant tale about the power of human connection. After a zombie epidemic, R (a highly unusual zombie) encounters Julie (a human survivor), and rescues her from a zombie attack. Julie sees that R is different from the other zombies, and as the two form a special relationship in their struggle for survival, R becomes increasingly more human -- setting off an exciting, romantic, and often comical chain of events that begins to transform the other zombies and maybe even the whole lifeless world.

Get ready to count the number of Blood of Eden symbols.

An unforgettable new series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Iron Fey.

Allison Sekemoto survives in the Fringe, the outermost circle of a vampire city. By day, she and her crew scavenge for food. By night, any one of them could be eaten. 

Some days, all that drives Allie is her hatred of them. The vampires who keep humans as blood cattle. Until the night Allie herself is attacked—and given the ultimate choice. Die… or become one of the monsters.
