☆☆☆☆☆ - "What a superb start to the wastelands saga and a fantastic debut novel"

☆☆☆☆☆ - "Dynamically written, pacey & gripping; had me hooked by the first chapter."
Society has been split between the genders. The women, or MuQin, occupy the west of the island and the men, or Astenites, occupy the east. The discovery of “The Elixir” – a potion which replicates man’s seed and, in the eyes of the MuQin, renders men obsolete - has left the Island of Uchukawn locked in an eon-long battle for supremacy, long after the oceans have reclaimed the land. In this constant war, no sign of a victor has ever been apparent... until now.
The first book, "The Battle of Gildora," sets the stage for all the power structures within Uchukawn island to fall apart, as the Astenites seek to destroy the MuQin city of Gildora. Yet, a mysterious group seems to be watching with intent, and all thoughts of tribalism and safety are challenged as the ultimate battle for dominance begins.
