Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao

Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao

In a world where giant mecha are piloted by male-female pairs, with the female pilot usually dying from the psychic strain, Zetian volunteers specifically to be paired with the soldier responsible for her sister's death — and instead of dying, she survives, and he does not.

Zhao builds a fierce, unapologetically angry science fantasy drawing on Chinese history and mythology, particularly the historical female emperor Wu Zetian, and Zetian's refusal to accept the sexist system that has always sacrificed women pilots gives the novel real political bite beneath its mecha-battle spectacle.

Book one of the Iron Widow trilogy, a fierce feminist science fantasy inspired by Chinese history.
