Science fiction vision of women taking over the world, but taking it in some fairly depressing and rather familiar directions. A book that kicks off at pace, although the jumpy narrative looking through to different characters' points of view and shifting in both time and geography make for what can be a disjointed read. Hugely powerful in places, mind, even if and when a few descriptions seem to gleefully slip into genre, perhaps too knowingly, and certain a little noticeably. A book that feels written for filming.
