I totally agree with you, Michelle. That the reviewers are all women is really frightening.
BTW, I recently read a lot of reviews of Deverry books on amazon and goodreads. A number of characteristics of the books came up over and over -- split time scheme, amount of detail are the 2 I remember. These characteristics were the reasons that some reviewers loved the books and others hated the books. The same things!
My conclusion : reading one's reader reviews is a waste of time and adrenaline. :-)
