The Legend of Black Jack by A.R. Witham
2.0

This book is blatantly sexist. I'm confused why it has so many positive reviews.

We have handfuls of male characters and *checks notes* two women. One is an obese abusive alcoholic. The other is our "little firecracker" (she's older than the protagonist) who shows up to take off her shirt, tease our protagonist, and give worldbuilding dumps.

Additionally, this book is constantly using default-male language. To describe groups of men and women, it usually just refers to the everyone as "men." Like, in the end of the book, all the men celebrate their victory. Also some women are there to give out random lusty kisses.
