Dystopian -- 4 1/2 stars
Centuries after a devastating cataclysm left much of the earth blackened and scarred, men and women live apart, separated by walls and locked gates. Women are educated; they are law makers, doctors, educators, artists, farmers. They keep the world running. Men are soldiers. Which group is truly in charge? ----- Strong female characters rule this tale of a new world order. Ms. Tepper offers up a culture, complete and unique, where protecting secrets keeps society strong. It's the mystery that she saves for the ending that demonstrates Women's Country's long game. Thought provoking and entertaining.
