The Rage of Dragons

Interesting world-building and a unique setting, but the training ended up being so very detailed that I was skimming through up to the last 100 pages roughly - I just don't enjoy descriptions of fight scenes much, and this was so very heavy on dry fighting choreography. 

Tau as a character was also frustrating, and claiming this society is a matriarchy seems bizarre since there's almost no female characters (and the few that exist only get mentioned to inspire rampages of revenge from guys - which is a disgusting trope). I'm willing to give the second book a chance, but damn, this was a slog at times.
