I must confess surprise at some of the survivors. I mean, sure Mervyn Peake wrote Gormenghast, but he should be better known as a (non-fantasy) poet and an artist. And Brandon Sanderson and Scott Lynch?? Maybe in 20 years or so they'll be fit to polish the shoes of LeGuin, Wolfe, and Pratchett.

I've read both, and it was Kay's work that I felt was truly misogynistic, with Howard being more fairly categorised as "adolescent male power fantasy". Red Nails has a female protagonist who is the equal of Conan.

I am genuinely surprised. Either, I am completely tone deaf (a real possibility), or we have read different books by Kay. Which ones did you feel were misogynistic?
