Ar, defeated, shamed, and systematically looted, is occupied by
Cosian forces. Perhaps Marlenus of Ar alone, the great ubar, could
remind the men of their Home Stone and its meaning. But it is
thought that he perished in the Voltai. Youngwomen from Earth
brought to Gor are commonly taken to the markets to be branded,
collared, and sold as the delicious, lovely livestock they are.
Such is the case of a young woman whom we shall call Janice, for
that was her Gorean slave name. In the prison pits of piratical
Treve there exists a chained prisoner who believes himself to be of
the Gorean peasantry. The nature and even the existence of this
prisoner, strangely enough, is a closely guarded secret. In order
to better keep this secret, it is decided that his servant and
warder had best not be a native Gorean. Rediscover this brilliantly
imagined world where men are masters and women live to serve their
every desire.John Norman, born in Chicago, Illinois, in 1931, is
the creator of the Gorean Saga, the longest running series of
adventure novels in science fiction history. Starting inDecember
1966 withTarnsman of Gor, the series was put on hold after its
twenty-fifth installment, Magicians of Gor, in 1988, when DAW
refused to publish its successor, Witness of Gor. After several
unsuccessful attempts to find a trade publishing outlet, the series
was brought back into print in 2001. Norman has also produced a
separate, three installment science fiction series, the Telnarian
Histories, plus two other fiction works (Ghost DanceandTime Slave),
a nonfiction paperback (Imaginative Sex), and a collection of
thirty short stories, entitledNorman Invasions.The Totems of
Abydoswas published in spring 2012.All of Norman's work is
available both in print and as ebooks. The Internet has proven to
be a fertile ground for the imagination of Norman's ever-growing
fan base, and at Gor Chronicles(www.gorchronicles.com), a website
specially created for his tremendous fan following, onemay read
everything there is to knowabout this unique fictional
culture.Norman is married and has three children."
