women are puppets, relentlessly described in terms of their physical attractiveness, who do whatever he wants for the plot, without much regard for motivation or character consistency
It was somewhat the same in the recent BBC adaptation, though I suppose the women were portrayed a little better there.
As for The Pirate Queen, am almost done with the last chapter so here's hoping it will be posted soon. I've been distracted by a lot of things lately so it's been hard to sit down and finish up the last 10% of it.
