About this listen
In this Philip K. Dick Award-winning series, one woman’s unknowable destiny depends on a bold new step in human evolution.
In the wake of the apocalypse, Flora has come of age in a highly gendered post-plague society where females have become a precious, coveted, hunted, and endangered commodity. But Flora does not participate in the economy that trades in bodies. An anathema in a world that prizes procreation above all else, she is an outsider everywhere she goes, including the thriving all-female city of Shy.
Now navigating a blighted landscape, Flora, her friends, and a sullen young slave she adopts as her own child leave their oppressive pasts behind to find their place in the world. They seek refuge aboard a ship where gender is fluid, where the dynamic is uneasy, and where rumors flow of a bold new reproductive strategy.
When the promise of a miraculous hope for humanity’s future tears Flora’s makeshift family asunder, she must choose: protect the safe haven she’s built or risk everything to defy oppression, whatever its provenance.

Great series, hope this is not the last Book Of
I really liked this book. Narration was great. The end arrived too soon again. Hoping there will be another in this series!

Great Book, Great Performance
Such a clever story, an interesting insight into gender and relationship, society and community with twists and turns throughout. Great performance from the narrator. I love the way it highlights the strive to find safety within the world, within oneself, within relationship and community. A brilliant series, I'm sad it's over!
Highly recommend.

Excellent
Beautifully written final book in the series, I feel the author has achieved something when they leave a reader wondering how the characters are going after finishing the book!

Didn’t enjoy this as much as the last book
The plot was a bit thin in the ground. And far fetched. I’ll listen to the last book though.
