In a future shaped by the devastating Y Chromosome Virus, society flourishes under the rule of the matriarchal Council of Mothers, a seemingly utopian world where peace and progress reign. But the fragile harmony shatters when the virus resurfaces, threatening to wipe out the population and dismantle the world the Council built.

Imani, a determined rebel, uncovers a dangerous the key to eradicating the virus—and possibly humanity’s only hope—lies with the last man on Earth, hidden for decades. His existence is both a cure and a threat, capable of saving the world or unraveling the Council’s grip on power. As whispers of his presence spread, the Council will stop at nothing to eliminate him, even if it means burning their utopia to the ground.

With time running out, Imani must navigate a society teetering between hope and desperation. As she races to find the man before the Council does, she realizes the fight is not just against the virus, but against a history of secrets and control that may be impossible to undo. *"Echoes of Man"* is a gripping tale of survival and rebellion, where the future of humanity hinges on the echoes of the past and the re-emergence of life itself.

Echos of Man is a good book with a good storyline. It's a book of the future where women rule over everything. It begins in the year 2174, where there is a virus that was spreading through the men and boys. They were led by the Council of Women, and the leader was named Seraphine. There are two women and one man that this story is centered around: Imani, Mara, and Dorian are three of the main characters. Mara was told that there was a special mission to send her on. Read the story to see how Imani, Mara, and Dorian's worlds collide, and will Dorian and Imani or Dorian and Mara become allies to fight the ferel creatures. Good book if you like reading about the future. Read to see who Dorian will end up with and whether they will ever defeat the feral creatures and the Mother Council.

I have not been disappointed by a single book I got from the #BRAE event this year. This was sooo good, I’ll definitely be reading book 2. What a concept! I’ll always love a good dystopian novel and one without men? Sure why not LOL

I just have 1 question for The Council… who hurt you? 😂
