Why read it?
1 author picked Ethan of Athos as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is fun. It’s about a society that is entirely male. In order to have children, they make use of ovarian tissue. Unfortunately, the society’s supply of this essential tissue has degraded. When a replacement shipment arrives from a biological supply house, it’s unusable. A rather idealistic doctor sets out on a quest to solve the mystery and replace the ovarian tissue.
From Lizzie's list on speculative fiction about sex and society.
