Interesting, I hadn't thought of it that way. I would also note that in both Aaronovitch and Stabenow, the author stayed within gender, but with Smith, did not.
Certainly, in the case of Stabenow, I strongly suspect she made a decision that if you're going to write about Alaska, and especially wilderness Alaska, the story is more compelling from a First Nations perspective. And, I would add, that her stories featuring Liam Campbell are OK, but not up to the Kate Shugak level, IMHO. Though again, that's now crossing gender boundaries.
