The Books of Gor
|
|
Volume I, Tarnsman of Gor.
The
Hidden World: Earth could never know of Gor, the world
always on the opposite side of the Sun. But Gor somehow knew
about Earth,
as Tarl Cabot soon discovered. Taken by force to that savage
world, Cabot was forced to become a tarnsman - a waarrior
who could control
the great war birds of Ko-ro-ba. Gor wass a world of slaves
and beautiful women, of human dominaation by the alien, secret
Priest-Kings.
And it was also the world of Talena, tempestious daughter
of the greatest warlord of Gor. She waited for the man who
could
subdue
her-the man who would be her master. But was Tarl Cabot that
man?

Once
Tarl Cabot had been the mightiest warrior of Gor, the strange

except
the tarn, the mighty bird on which he flew. He was an outcast,
with every hand against him, His home city had been destroyed,
his loved ones scattered or killed. And that was at the orders
of the Priest-Kings, those mysterious beings who ruled absolutely
over Gor. No man had ever seen a Priest-King. They were said
to dwell somewhere in the Mountains of Sardar. And none who entered
that forbidden land ever returned alive. Nonetheless, Tarl
Cabot
headed into the Mountains of Sardar!

Cabot's efforts to free himself from the directive of the mysterious
priest-kings
of Earth's orbital counterpart were confronted by frightening

at him.

on behalf
of the Priest-Kings, on behalf of Gor, and on behalf of Gor's
teeming, unsuspecting, twin world known as Earth. Evidence pointed
to the
great wasteland of the Tahari, the desert known only to the clannish,
militant tribes of desert-wanderers. There must Cabot go. There
among the fueds, along the trails of slavers, beyond the forbidding
salt mines to a rendezvous with treachery, with a woman warlord,
with a bandit chief, and with the monster intelligences from
the worlds of steel.

Volume
XI, Slave Girl of Gor.
Tarl
Cabot had resumed his allegiance to the Priest-Kings, the non-human
but
benevolent rulers of Earth's orbital twin planet, Gor.
And accordingly Tarl knew that the battle for the possession
of the planet was
under way - the Kurii, the beastlike invaders, had made
their plans. There was a girl, once Judy Thornton of Earth,
found in the wilderness
of Gor. Captured, as such lovely strangers were on that
ruthless world, she was to undergo the training that would
make her a slave
girl of great value. But unknown to her captors was the
fact that she was a tool of the Kurii, that she carried a programmed
message
that imperilled the future of Gor.

Volume
XII, Beasts of Gor.
On
Gor, the other world in Earth's orbit, the term beast can mean
any of three
things: First, there are the Kurii, the monsters from space
who are about to invade that world. Second, there are the Gorean
warriors,
men whose fighting ferocity is incomparable. Third, there
are the slave girls, who are both beasts of burden and objects
of desire.
All three kinds of beasts come into action in this thrilling
novel as the Kurii establish their first beachhead on Gor's
polar cap.
Here is a John Norman epic that takes Tarl Cabot from the
canals fo Port Kar to the taverns of Lydius, the tents of the
Sardar Fair,
and to a grand climax among the red hunders of the Arctic
ice pack.

Volume XVII, Savages of Gor.
The Kur came to Port Kar. Two of the terrible
space beasts came to make Tarl Cabot an offer. They, a death-squad,
sought the renegade Kur commander, the great Half-Ear, whom Tarl
had once battled in the Far North. But Tarl refused their offer,
for Half-Ear was more valuable to the Priest-Kings alive than to
the Kur dead. And now he knew it was imperative for him to save
that monster from the doom that would fast overtake him. This meant
venturing into the forbidden Barrens of Gor -- a vast land of plains
and prairies whose cruel masters were tribes of savage red riders
and where civilized men were always prey and their women mere trophies
of the hunt.
