“Renegade” book trailer called “captivating”

The book trailer for Renegade was published on youtube on Thursday, June 13th, and it’s getting rave reviews so far. Viewers have called “captivating,” “very powerful,” “as fast paced as the book,” “action packed,” and “inspiring.”

I’ll have more to say on this later, but I think one of the reasons viewers have responded so positively is because the trailer fits the medium–video (and film) is visual. This trailer is stylistically much closer to a movie trailer in that it attempts to communicate visually and sensually to draw in the viewer. 
Whether the trailer generates book sales is another story. Stay posted.
