I would like to mention that although my book, When Women Were Warriors, looks like genre, it most emphatically isn't, although it looks like romance to romance fans, fantasy to fantasy fans, and sword & sorcery to S&S fans, and has been tagged by them in those categories.
Someone on Kindleboards called it "an interesting hard-to-define historical fiction book."

Here's a snippet:
"Catherine M. Wilson skillfully weaves interlocking subplots and unfolds the meanings of her characters' lives, layer by layer by layer. Although set in a type of prehistoric society, in an unfamiliar matriarchal culture, the story is vastly appealing and
its readership is not confined to fans of a particular genre. The lesbian content is subtle, not erotic but sensual, and occurs at integral plot points, growing out of the context of the story and of the emotional relationships and friendships of the characters. I highly recommend When Women Were Warriors: The Warrior's Path, which is Book One of the When Women Were Warriors trilogy."
