Women — writers and characters — dominate the best of the latest crop of science fiction novels
The Echo WifeBy Sarah Gailey(Tor, 256 pages, $33.99)“The Echo Wife” is a novel about creators and their creations. So her ex decides to clone Evelyn into a kind of Stepford wife named Martine who he can program to be the perfect helpmeet. The Kibsu are driven, intelligent and killing machines, but they’re opposed by a male line of blockers known as Trackers. Unlike most such tales of space cowboys though, all the main characters, even the artificial ones, are female and mostly lesbian or bisexual. Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading...
