When I watched the trailer for the movie, I was left somewhat baffled. I couldn't tell if the film was garnered more for fans of music or military families. But being a fan of Kristin Scott Thomas, I threw all doubts and hesitation about the film away and watched it...and I'm glad I did! Not knowing much about the story and it's characters, I became very enthralled with the movie. At first viewing, I thought I was watching a "military" version of the movie Pitch Perfect. Not knowing that the movie was based on a true story, it peaked my interest to learn more about the "true" military wives choir. After multiple watches though, I can honestly say that the overall plot and feel of the movie makes this a must see film. Fans of music and military films will enjoy this movie very immensely. A must see and highly recommended film!!!
Ari Augustine (10 KP) rated Realm of Knights (Knights of the Realm, #1) in Books

But when the beans are spilled and by a prince with a taste for blackmail shes forced to accept his offer of silence in exchange for an act of treason. Shes sucked into a whole world of secrets, far more dangerous and deadly than the one shes fighting to keep. And it may cost her more than she realizes.
To be honest, Realm of the Knights isnt my usual cuppa. The last time I read anything close to a high or epic fantasy was during my Forgotten Realms phase, especially ones with courts or royal families.
But Realm of the Knights caught my eye first (admittedly) by its bold, beautiful cover and second, the major Arthurian-Mulan vibes I was getting. This was all I needed to abandon my High-Fantasy famine and dive right in.
And I dont regret it one bit.
