SI CLARKE reviewed Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao (Iron Widow #1)
Review of 'Iron Widow' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
When her sister dies in the war efforts, Xetian decides to take her revenge on the pilot who killed her.
This story punched me in the gut with al the wrongs in the world (the author's fictional world and by extension our own) but it also wrapped me up in the warm fuzzies with how wonderful people can be. And then it punched me again.
Huh. This book is an abusive partner. Still, I'm not going to break up with it.
An unapologetic sci-fi tale that pulls no punches and will leave readers fired up and ready to overthrow the patriarchy.
