I honestly liked this one better than the first book in the series. The plot was a lot more fast-paced and it seemed more life or death which made me care about the characters more.

Book centers around a rebellion in a society where women are viewed as commodities. Men are given two trained wives and there is a lot of institutionalized sexism because of it. It also includes war and mentions attacks from the police state.
