Having caught excerpts via Cara's blog for the last few weeks, I had been brimming with excitement to read this and the book met my expectations perfectly.The society in which Dak and Omra live in is patriarchal to the extreme. Men are superior in every way and women serve no purpose other than domestic work and being breeders for Alphas. The odds are almost against a romance forming between a man and a woman in a place like this, but oh do we see it here.I enjoyed the tension, sexual and in relation to Dak and his attempts to evolve and hold on to his command. I loved that Omra was tenacious also from beginning to end. I can't say Sci Fi is necessarily a genre I seek out, but I've been known to enjoy books of this nature a good deal so this one met my expectations in that regard. It was great to immerse myself in this world/society.Really loved this read and would almost like to read another character's story based in this world. This book lived up to the hype.
