Crucible

I find these books increasingly anoying.
Most of the woman characters and all the child characters are put into great harm or great danger
mostly so the men can feel scared or be determined.
Two groups are chasing the McGuffin and the one abusing the women and children is
not related to the main gang. The AI technology in here is essentially magic.
Anyways, it was OK but I'm not excited to read the next one.
