Daughters of an Amber Noon

This is the second book in the Daughters trilogy. In the first book, Daughters of a Coral Dawn, four thousand descendants of Mother leave Earth to form a women's utopia on a distant planet. Two thousand of their sisters remain on Earth for various reasons. This book follows their story. I didn't find it as gripping as the first novel. Even though this book came out eighteen years after the first, it feels like sophomore slump. There was a lot of exposition. Rather than showing me what happened, it was a lot of telling me what happened. Even the ending had epilogue-like chapters explaining what had happened rather than taking me through the events as they unfolded.
