A review by medea_jade
The Desert Spear by Peter V. Brett

Did not finish book. Stopped at 7%.
I read this years ago when it first came out and am so much more trigger by the content now than then. The way this man writes women is absolutely disgusting. An hour in and there have been multiple rapes, children stolen to be concubines, slaves, and worse, and violent assault.  And it’s so obviously a commentary on Muslim culture.  Honestly any man who can write this way does not deserve to have his work read.
