My dad was a big fan of Wilbur Smith when I was younger. He writes epic action adventure novels set mostly in Africa. I'd read them when he was finished, and enjoyed a few of them, but even then I thought his female characters were ridiculous, existing only to either romance the lead of get raped by a villain. I've forgotten a lot, but things that stand out: -one fairly important female character getting hosed to death by a spear -another almost dying by having packets of red hot chilli powder placed where chilli powder has no business being -a full grown woman getting spanked nude by their own father because of reasons -an ancient Egyptian wizard growing his own castrated dick and balls back on for the express purpose of loving a sex-witch to death with them. The last one was the book where my dad and I both decided to maybe take a break from Wilbur. Not read a book of his since.
