Hunters of Gor (1998)

Hunters of Gor is good but not great. Unlike its immediate predecessor its a decent installment to the Gor series.

Priest-Kings of Gor (1968)

ORIGINALLY POSTED AT Fantasy Literature.I’m not sure why I’m still reading the Gor books. I guess it’s partly because Brilliance Audio has kindly sent them to me (they are nice productions), but it’s also largely because these books have been maligned for years as poorly written sexist-BDSM-eroti...

Book

Witness of Gor (2007)

Well! One more chapter of the Gorian saga is over. I think the prevailing question is why do we persist with book after book of terrible writing and editing and keep coming back for the crumbs of storyline Norman graces us with amongst the sea of propaganda and redundant useless information. I ha...

Outlaw of Gor (1983)

This book would be better if it were called 'Terb vs. the Blood Lesbians', which would have the combined benefits of precisely outlining the plot and sparking the audience's collective imagination. If I had written it, that's what I would have called it, but if I had written this book, I would be...

Nomads of Gor (1981)

I originally set out to read the entire Gor series. Here I am, at the end of the fourth book...and I'm seriously rethinking that commitment.Cabot just keeps getting more unlikeable as the series progresses.

Tribesmen of Gor (2007)

I gave this one star only because it wasn't possible to give it zero. The storyline was all over the place, to the point that I couldn't follow the story because of all the unecessary flashbacks to something that happened two days prior. Rather than ABCDEFGHI... it was ADBCEHFGI.... Why skip a...

Players of Gor (1984)

The games of Gor are diverse, as are their players. There are the games of planetary politics, in which worlds are contested.

“Yes, Master,” said Ellen, quickly. She knelt before him, her head to the ground. “Do you know how to bathe?” he asked. “You may look up.” Ellen lifted her head, timidly. “Yes, Master,” she said. “I have been taught.” “You will go ...

Smugglers of Gor (2012)

Almost as one, those two large, shaggy heads had turned, so swiftly that it seemed there had been no turning. They had been intent on the live animal bound on the spit. Then, almost as though there had been no movement, we were regarded. “No!” said Tyrtaios to me. “Do not!&rdquo...

Kur of Gor

“Come here!" She sped to him, lightly, swiftly, in her tiny tunic. Cabot was pleased with her. Over the past few days she had progressed irrecoverably in her bondage. Her carriage, her kneeling, her subtlest movement, was now that of a slave. In Cabot's hands she had been spoiled for f...

Yet it had been, yesterday,...

The Usurper

Consider the terse entry, “The sky was dark with the coming of ships.” Much, we suppose, lies behind so curt an entry.     One can gather, of course, that there were a great many ships. Something may be gathered, as well, from the apparent fact that reports and notices from va...

Conspirators of Gor (2012)

I heeled him into the large room, and, when he crouched down, at ease, before the broad dais, I knelt behind him, on his left. It took some time for my eyes to grow accustomed to the light, as, for a human, it was almost dark, at least until this adjustment took place. If humans of interest or im...

Some bread was handed to me. I had taken the report of the last watch, and no one had exited the stable. The six fires had been tended during the night, and the net had been raised and anchored to posts. The fires would shortly, with the coming of light, be extinguished. “Free him,” I...

In this respect the weird minds and bizarre vagaries of the typical science fiction fan differ considerably from the more prosaic survival apparatus of the benighted mundanes, and resemble far more ...
