Synopsis

A floating prison is home to Earth's unwanted people, where they are forgotten... but not yet dead, in this wild science fiction adventure Deep space penal colony Oubliette, population: scum. Lena "Horror" Horowitz leads the Daughters of Forgotten Light, one of three vicious gangs fighting for survival on Oubliette. Their fragile truce is shaken when a new shipment arrives from Earth carrying a fresh batch of prisoners and supplies to squabble over. But the delivery includes two new surprises: a drone, and a baby. Earth Senator Linda Dolfuse wants evidence of the bloodthirsty gangs to justify the government finally eradicating the wasters dumped on Oubliette. There's only one problem: the baby in the drone's video may be hers.

Goodreads review by Anna on June 24, 2018

A punky, pulpy Blade Runner-feeling, Gangs of New York-feuding, all-girl fighting, motorcycle-riding far-future Sci Fi.
