Summary

This is the third installment of John Norman's popular and controversial Gor series. Tarl Cabot is the intrepid tarnsman of the planet Gor, a harsh society with a rigid caste system that personifies the most brutal form of Social Darwinism. In this volume, Tarl must search for the truth behind the disappearance of his beautiful wife, Talena. Have the ruthless Priest-Kings destroyed her? Tarl vows to find the answer for himself, journeying to the mountain stronghold of the kings, knowing full well that no one who has dared approach the Priest-Kings has ever returned alive....

The saga continues: listen to more in the Gorean series.

Book 3 down 31 to go

I am in love with this saga, I can’t get enough of it. There are some tasteful characters in the book and some that make you want to slap them but then you realise it’s only a character. I enjoyed this book. Onto book 4 now.

Its weird, but it works.

A lot of head scratching with this one. Once introduced to the world of the priest kings one can’t help but think.. What?
In many aspects it can be regarded as silly, BUT somehow the author makes it work, and hey, if the story is great, that’s good enough for me. I’m glad however that I listened to this instead of reading it as I can imagine it being a bit of a drag, but the narrator, as with the first 2 books, is able to glue the story and gel all the characters with their individual personalities. Less info dumps with this one, but they are still there and I think that this painful theme will continue throughout.

disappointing

I could only struggled through half, it started going wrong with the tedious minutiae of objects slightly differing from real world objects, going into far more detail than necessary. Then it moves into an hour or so of characters with monotonous and abrasive voices (I appreciate that this was correct though). Worst was the author's portrayal of how women act on gor, and his attempts to rationalise their submissive behaviour. I understand that this is his fantasy, a world he created, but I could not perservere through the rest of this book as I found it rather sickening.
