The weakest of the Dalcher books that I have read so far, but still interesting. A few times I wondered what the actual message was - coming from Vox I had assumed that Dalcher was writing from a feminist perspective, but this more than a few times seemed actually quite vehemently anti-woman. The main character seems quite traditional in her views and the main antagonist extremely feminist, I was a bit surprised reading the book as the overall tone seemed essentially to be arguing against the feminist cause.
