A review by booksgamesart
Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao

3.0

I had to see what the hype was all about! Upon finishing, I have mixed feelings. Read if you love adventure, a main character with fire in her heart, and violent attempts at battling misogyny. If its take on violence, in particular that murder can be justified, will offend you, take heed. The oppression in this society is also purposefully terrible... Set in a futuristic world with interesting creatures and a well-done polyamorous relationship, this was super quick and enjoyable in some ways, but I won't look back on it as a favorite.
