Matrus is ruled by women and men are little more than an inconvenience to most women there.
Patrus is ruled by men, women are "owned" by their husbands there and can not do anything without them or a guardian appointed by their husband.
We first meet Violet our MC when she is trying to sneak her brother across the river into Patrus, since he was marked as too aggressive for Matrus. Things do not go as planned and both Violet and her brother are captured. Her brother is sent off and we don't really learn anything besides he was sent up north to the mines ( or was he?)
Violet has had it rough since her brother was captured and carted off, she has been in and out of trouble, committed womanslaughter twice and is now facing certain death. When she is given the chance to wipe her slate clean; by retrieving something that Patrus "stole" from Matrus she eventually takes it with the stipulation that she gets to visit her brother.
This is where things really slowed down for me, and I started only reading a chapter at night before bed. I couldn't see Violet in Patrus acting like one of their women. She was so lively and kick ass. But to be subservient and meek was totally out of character for her.
I won't give too much more away, Violet starts to finally come back into character. The retrieval goes off without a hitch, and then, of course, there is another twist thrown in. I'm reading the next book now, mainly because I need to know if Violet ever finds her brother.… (altro)
