Review # 1 was written on 2019-11-14 00:00:00 Joseph Kulikowski Postmodern feminist cyberpunk for the ambiguous semi-apocalyptic wartime American Southwest. Another from FC2's Black Ice imprint and its very much the smart snappy avant-pop showpiece you might hope for, focusing on the internal politics and conflicts of an all-women semi-utopia isolated by geography and uncertainty somewhere in the desert, balanced against a gang of biker nuns seeking to compute the name of god. Establishes a rhythm of its own drifting out of the narrative for flashes of contemporaneous autobiography and a lot of thinking about the ways in which the characters are variously defined by men or their absence, or not, the semantics of relationship. Initiates too many intriguing plot points to really tie them all up in a completely cogent or compelling way by the end, but its not the sort of story that demands that either. Begs the question of why I'd not heard of Kit Reed earlier.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-07-22 00:00:00 Michel Muller Computer hacking, motorcycle riding nuns; sounds like a pretty dumb concept. Kit Reed manages to handle the topic with aplomb,making it an enjoyable and insightful ride. The women of Schell Island have been alone for 5 years - all of the men are off at some unspecified war. Without knowing why, the Little Sisters are drawn to Arizona to help the women out. With the imminent return of their men? With the Outlaw family who has sworn vengeance upon the families of the men who first evicted them from Schell Island? The women don't know, and the sister's don't know. But eventually,the pieces of the puzzle fall together the only way they can. Pro-tip: Unless you are an incredibly open-minded man the unrepentantly pro-female agenda this book has will make you want to twist the book in half.
