Strong Female Characters (lemmy.world)

Can anyone recommend some SciFi books with well written female characters?

I've recently read Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie and am looking for well constructed, non male, well thought out characters.

Definitely worth it to keep reading. He's finished the series now, and the payoff is solid (personally I felt he could have gone for another book, but I really like the ending he chose).
