The Cadet of Tildor is a Tamora Piercesque type fantasy and you can really tell that Alex Lidell is influenced by her. But I really like that she grabbed the premise of a young girl competing in a male dominated world but with her own twist. Renee as a heroine was no Mary Sue and she had to work har...
With a tagline that said 'Tamora Pierce meets George R.R. Martin' this book had A LOT to live up to. Fortunately, it was completely awesome, so this wasn't a problem whatsoever!It took me about two or three chapters to get sucked into the story, but from that moment all I really wanted to do was REA...
Renee de Winter never wanted to be a lady, she wanted to protect her country, Tildor. That's why she is attending the Academy of Tildor instead of glamorous balls.

A girl training to be a Servant of the Crown, medieval f...
(This review was originally posted at My Library in the Making.)I am a huge fan of George R.R. Martin, so to compare another writer's work to his is a huge deal. The people behind The Cadet of Tildor had bravely made this comparison, and I'm more than glad to know it lived up to it.Renee de Winter w...
Review is also posted at Ja čitam, a ti? I've said it once but I believe that winter is perfect time for reading fantasy. At least it is for me. I love fantasy but I must admit I could enjoy it better when I was younger. Still there are books that surprise me. Cadet of Tildor is the book I cou...
BookNook — Young Adult book reviewThe Cadet of Tildor was a big disappointment for me. I wanted a kickass girl power book with a steamy hot romance that defied the world and Graceling-esque epicness. But I got none of that. And at the end of the day, Renee didn't even kick much ass. She was a gi...
