Left behind by their sisters, they’ve become the hunted. In this gripping sequel to Daughters of a Coral Dawn, Katherine V. Forrest tells the story of an Earth beyond nightmare, ruled by dictator Theo Zedera—known simply as Zed—whose weaponry is invincible. With ruthless determination he seeks the vanished women remaining on Earth. Among these women is the leader of the Unity, the extraordinary Africa Contrera, Zed’s childhood friend as well as his colleague and intellectual equal.
As Africa struggles to build a world safe for women, she is haunted by her past—a time when she trusted Zed and shared with him the deadly knowledge he now uses to hunt her. What future can there be for the women who call themselves the Unity? How can they possibly conceal themselves from a world of savagery and a man who intends to find them at any cost?
A brilliant, breathtaking, romantic saga of a divided society and the rebels courageous enough to withstand a brutal new world.

Daughters of an Amber Noon edition by Katherine V Forrest Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This book just doesn't cut it. Another reviewer called it shallow and I agree. The description of the home they made out of the most inhospitable place on earth was less than adequate. The characters weren't developed and their interactions were completely disjointed. I don't know how many times I yawned and thought 'who cares'. It was only pure stubbornness that made me finish it. I didn't think the first book was that hot either but at least it had a cohesive story, fully developed characters, and a good description of the world the women lived in.
Another problem is the same one I had with 'Coral Dawn'. Sci-fi aside, it's less than realistic to believe that men are evil and women pure as the driven snow. The idea that without men everyone would live in harmony with absolutely no violence or fighting is ludicrous. The evolutionary theory at the end was interesting but if she wants the reader to believe it she has to do better than saying 'women don't kill each other'.
Daughters of a Coral Dawn is a romance story set within the context of a science fiction novel. This sequel Daughters of a Amber Noon is a science fiction novel with a small but, noble love story.
If you did not read Daughters of a Coral Dawn I recommend that you do before delving into Amber noon, but it is not necessary --it does stand alone as a viable chapter within a larger story. The reason I recommend the reading of Coral Dawn is the author has set in motion from the middle of Amber Noon an open ended connection back to the original story. And we are rewarded at the end with obvious references that the story of the Unity will continue beyond Amber Noon and perhaps beyond that. My hope is that part three will be a great romance novel (read Curious Wine or An Emergence of Green) set within a science fiction story as detailed and memorable as Amber Noon and Coral Dawn. And that we don't have to wait so long to read it!
As for Amber Noon, Forrest's writing is as fluid as ever and her research evidently exhaustive. I found all the characters compelling, but perhaps the Zed and Desmond characters to be most fully realized. I feel that this may have been the author's intention as well. We are only getting to know Joss and Tara; their time has yet to come. We also hope that Africa, the soul of Amber Noon, will return as well, although that seems unlikely. But, who knows what Master story teller Forrest has in mind for the future of the Unity.
To keep it pretty short and to the point, I'd say that if you loved "Daughters of a Coral Dawn," then you should read "Daughters of an Amber Noon." The sequel - as is so often the case - is not as good as the original ... but it's not bad, either, and if you finished Coral Dawn wanting to know what happens next, you should check this one out. )
Note The reader from South Carolina appears to have an odd view of what "lesbian" is, though she apparently is one herself. I would agree with the person who said that Amber Noon isn't as lesbian as I would've liked it to have been ... and point out to the reader from South Carolina that having elements such as "all the men were evil" and "all the men were murderers and rapists" does not make a book "more lesbian."
Lesbians generally don't hate men - I think you've confused us with married heterosexual women. ;)
I loved this book! I did, do, did! I think I will probably be rereading this one. Correction I think I will be bopping off to the store with a gift certificate I found and buying the first book. I love it. I'm a huge science fiction fan. And this has just enough to make me happy. It also has a character who reads almost closely like a librarian to me. And I love library type stuff, information architechture and organization. I like strong women. Okay and bad me, I like the conclusion regarding population decline, male infertility and female empowerment. I have a lot of male friends on-line and I don't have a problem with men but given the current political climate in the United States, it is nice to read something that well... subversively like the Da Vinci Code, could have elements of truth and explain things like why some religious zealots want to tell me what I can do with my female body. But that said, that aside, I like it!
Love this sequel to the first book, in my opinion Katherine V. Forrest is one of the best!
Liked it )
This book was included on my daughter's Wish List. It is part of a science fiction saga. It arrived as expected and in excellent condition. Even the cover was perfect. And my daughter loved the gift.
Not as good that I hoped for, easy reading but a bit slow,
