Ja. I'm having a real problem with this and I've discussed it w a few of you and I seem to be alone. So allow me to self-flagellate here. I feel kind of bad. - Tyzmon and Icon's mom is only indirectly mentioned, she loses her son and apparently has her memory messed w to compensate.
- Other females are referred to in strongly negative terms: Bitches, witches, whores -- Icon's opinions of Tyzmon's sex life -- Icon also seems to think Tyzmon's mental problems are the result of being somehow cursed (we'll take volunteers if anyone wants to break the truth to him).
- Mary (Tyzman's sister, Tyzmon's 'aunt') is described as always a bitch to T so he's surprised she helps him (with the Tyzlane Staff)
- Lucy -- poor fkn Lucy! -- introduced, miscarries and DIES of an infection ALL IN THE SAME PARAGRAPH!
- Finally, Captain Earl and his 'face-faced' (was originally 'fat-faced' but I had a typo, now it is 'round-faced') wench with a sharp tongue.
And that's ALL the females in the book so far! -r PS: I really hope I'm not as much of a sexist as the above makes me feel like I am -=-
