Sure, Tim. I agree with this. Some men have written great female characters (Thomas Hardy, for instance), but mostly...meh. And this sounds like the more egregious of the lot. I happen to love some old school fantasy/sci fi that was written by men and which featured strong female protagonists. Your review was enough for me to think that this one is never ending up even in my virtual bookshelves. Not supporting this guy, in particular.
Good. There are a lot of unpublished, good writers out there who can do this work better. Let them have a chance.

Yeah, no to this one.
