What if women unraveled the evils of patriarchy? With men safely "gentled" in a worldwide Liberation, the matriarchy of Nede has risen from the ashes. Seventeen-year-old Reina Pierce has never given a thought to the Brutes of old. Itching to escape her mother's finca and keeping her training for the Alexia and her forbidden friendship a secret, her greatest worry is which Destiny she'll choose on her next birthday. But when she's selected as a candidate for the Succession instead, competing to become Nede's ninth Matriarch, she discovers their Eden has come at a cost she's not sure she's willing to pay.

Jess Corban's debut novel presents a new twist to the dystopian genre, delivering heart-pounding action, thought-provoking revelations, and a setting as lush as the jungles of Central America.

Industry Reviews
This well-written dystopian novel about a matriarchal society is reminiscent of The Hunger Games with the strong characters of Wonder Woman. While the narrative starts slow, the ending will leave readers on the edge of their seats.--School Library Journal
Corban's impressive world building turns the dystopian subgenre on its head in this first installment of the Ned? Rising series. . . . readers will likely be captivated enough to read through this mysterious, imaginative plot in one long, thrilling sitting.--Booklist
Themes of justice, equality between . . . genders, and abuse of power are developed in this well-written novel. . . . A series opener with an intriguing premise.--Kirkus Reviews
