I can't get proper audio here at work with only one ear bud, and I'm not supposed to be able to watch videos (but I've got a way around that) but still ... freaking awesome! I can't wait to read your book Alex.
It's rockin' hooooot :)))) I love the atmospheric music in the trailer, although when the doors of the hangar started to slide open I was expecting for you to jump in wearing a space suit :)))
I've put it immediately over at HOLLYWOOD SPY's official YouTube channel:
Utterly cool! I haven't seen many book trailers before but this is the best I've seen so far. I'm looking forward to the book release. I predict success on the horizon. Today book trailer, tomorrow movie trailer, in the future wealthy Alex J Cavanaugh hobnobbing with the rich and famous with a string of best sellers under his belt. Way to go, Alex!
WOW! That is so fantastic Alex! I'm so excited for your book, and this just amplified it. Do I sense a video game coming from it? Ehhhhhh?? Keep up all the awesome work Alex, you're a true inspiration!
Well I know I've been totally useless at blogging and commenting over the last couple of weeks but I'm so glad I had a bit of extra time today to come visiting.... it looks great! I love the bursting out of the airlock sequence...
Congratulations Alex, that is awesome! Where did you get that done? Whoever did it, did a truly professional job.
Well, I'll pick that up for my son in October. It's exactly the kind of book he loves most. (I enjoy scifi too, but sometimes I think nobody loves the genre more than my son.)
I guess you're going to Inception soon Alex, so I just want to say, you will LOVE IT! I was blown away, and have just posted my review. Let me know what you think of it when you get back!
Alex, This is a grand and awe-inspiring book trailer. This is Space Adventure and outer-space epicness the way I'm "KNOWING" your book will put forward. I'm happy for the 80 some comments. Now if we all buy a copy of the book and buy one to give to someone (Christmas presenst you know), and, etc. etc. hopefully Cadsastar will sell like hotcakes. r/e
That is excellent, Alex. The graphics are outstanding. If you'll remind me, (even though I'm making a note on my calendar), I think it would be cool to post the trailer on my blog on Oct. 13th, the day before your guest post.

It *does* rock, Alex! It's an amazing trailer! Great music, love the visuals--it looks like a movie!
That is super awesome! Congratulations, Alex, that's a hell of a trailer :D
You are right, That was so freakin awesome! Can't wait to get the book. And now, with the trailer, I want to read it even more.
Excellent trailer!
Everytime I try to view it, I get an error message :-(
Wow, that was fantastic! Congratulations!
This is awesome. The music and the visual effects were great. Congrats!
I am so jealous! That trailer is incredible!
I can't get proper audio here at work with only one ear bud, and I'm not supposed to be able to watch videos (but I've got a way around that) but still ... freaking awesome! I can't wait to read your book Alex.
What great animation! That's amazing. Congratulations! :) So exciting!
Thanks, everyone! Elizabeth, it does look like a movie - wouldn't that be awesome! Rayna, can you go directly to YouTube and watch it there?
I did just that, and it is absolutely awesome. Looks more like a movie trailer than a book trailer, and the music is fab.
You have a winner on your hands for sure, Alex.
Oh, it most definitely rocks. Amazing video that holds your attention and makes you want to know more. Great music with it too. Wonderful job.

I'm excited - and it's YOUR book! Very nice, indeed.
I completely agree. It is really awesome. The music reminds me of Joe Satriani's riffs. And the story sounds really interesting. Can't wait!
OMG! That is literally the best book trailer I have ever seen. I watched it twice!
Wow! That completely rocks!!! So very, very cool. I love the music and the graphics pull you in - and work with the music! Congrats :)

Brilliant, excellent, awesome and all the words I have forgotten.
Congratulations.

Very impressive. Kudos to you and your publisher. Way to build the excitement. :) Congrats.

Okay, that made me think of Battlestar Galactica. Now I have to read your book. :P (I totally wanted to anyway.)
Awesome trailer. Congrats!!!

That looks awsome! Can't wait for the book to come out!
Absolutely wonderful!!! Congratulations!!!
Congratulations! I love the concept of books trailers - hopefully someday I'll have one too... Yours looks absolutely awesome!
Thanks everyone! I was so excited to finally see it.
I actually saw this first over at HOLLYWOOD SPY. Awesome job! Very well done, and effective.
Amazing video! Congratulations on a A* piece of promotion.
Thanks DL and Glynis! I was so stoked when I saw it Wednesday. Thought it might suck!
@DL Hammons
ah, those spies always get everything first :))) What can I say, I have secret connections in Cassastarian government.
Alex, are you following comments over at YouTube as well and how many times the trailer has been watched so far?
Hey Dezz! Just checked it out - hope that number doubles daily.
Congratulations Alex, that is awesome! Where did you get that done? Whoever did it, did a truly professional job.
Well, I'll pick that up for my son in October. It's exactly the kind of book he loves most. (I enjoy scifi too, but sometimes I think nobody loves the genre more than my son.)
Beautiful colors, just like your book cover! Tweeted your trailer's address...congrats!
Thank you, Raquel!
WOOHOOO!!! That IS an awesome trailer! The music worked with the graphics perfectly.
I'm SO excited for you!!!
I promise to pimp it for you soon.
Did your publisher do this?
Happy Weekend!
Love,
Lola
I guess you're going to Inception soon Alex, so I just want to say, you will LOVE IT! I was blown away, and have just posted my review. Let me know what you think of it when you get back!

Awesome trailer, Alex! The music is reminiscent of the tv show "Firefly", but without the lyrics. That's a good thing. ;-)
Thanks, Monti!
And I love FIrefly, so that's a great compliment, Mary!
Very cool; I will have to show my son! I love the look, the sound...so well done~ Congrats!!!
Awesome trailer. Love the music --really captures the atmosphere. Nice one.
Thanks, David! I was so excited when I finally got to see it.

Rogue, I second that idea! Only three months away now.
LOVE the graphics. Did you make that yourself or was there a high-budget Hollywood producer behind the scenes?
Sweet!
Congrats, Alex!
I'm showing my age, I guess, because when you said "trailer" I thought "wow-amovie deal already?"
I did not know they did such things for books.
You must be antsy to see the final product by now!

That is excellent, Alex. The graphics are outstanding. If you'll remind me, (even though I'm making a note on my calendar), I think it would be cool to post the trailer on my blog on Oct. 13th, the day before your guest post.
Robin, thank you! My publisher created it.
Disc, I didn't know they did book trailers either.
Patricia, that would be awesome!
FINALLY got a chance to watch this.
Now i'm SUPER DUPER excited!
October is coming up pretty quick...
