THE LAST PRINCESS by Galaxy Craze (Book Trailer)

"Romeo and Juliet-style romance and a dash of royal political intrigue." (SLJ).
"A pulse-pounding, sobering look at human nature..." (Booklist).
"There is plenty of action, with daring rescue capers, good old-fashioned battles, secret-identity mishaps, and thrilling near-escapes set against an English dystopian landscape. Genre fans will appreciate this old-school take on a futuristic predicament." (BCCB).
Praise for Tiger, Tiger:
"[Craze] gives May a delicate, distinctive voice.... [Here] the trials of adolescence don't stand a chance against the absurdity of grown-ups." (Kirkus).
"[An] exquisite new novel... Craze's gorgeous prose is all in the incisive detail." (New York Post).
"Poetic..." (Marie Claire).
"A page-turner... Craze writes the sort of direct, dry-eyed prose that elevates even the most mundane events into carefully observed drama." (Time Out New York).
Praise for By the Shore:
"Craze fashions a spare, beautifully evocative tale of love and the youthful need for belonging.... Craze's seemingly effortless touch renders it remarkable and moving." (PW).
