This Soft Cover book with 344 pages is in good overall condition. Back cover has a slight abrasion from where a sticker or piece of tape was removed. Interior is mark-free but is tanned with normal age. Cover shows normal age wear and this book has been read before…not a pristine collector’s edition, but still a nice popular book that somebody will want to own or give as a gift to the Gor or science-fiction / fantasy buff.
Extremely collectible in good vintage condition! As of the date of this listing I have several other Conan books listed.
About Book:
Tarl has dedicated his life to ensuring that the Priest-Kings survive the harsh lands of Gor, but a savage tribe that closely guards its secrets has halted his quest. To continue it, Tarl must unravel the mysteries of this strange, private band of nomads called the Wagon People at risk of his life. He is the only man alive who has not trembled in the presence of this mysterious tribe. Now he is embarking on the most perilous adventure of his time on the counter-world of Gor. Will he be accepted by the tribe and learn the secrets they guard with their lives or will he die trying?
About Gor: Gor /ˈɡɔːr/ is the Counter-Earth setting for an extended series of sword and planet novels by author and philosophy professor John Norman. The series is inspired particularly by the Barsoom series and Almuric, but is also known for its content combining philosophy, erotica and science fantasy. The series is known for its repeated depiction of sexual fantasies involving men abducting and physically and sexually brutalizing women, who grow to enjoy their submissive state. According to The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, Norman's "sexual philosophy" is "widely detested", but the books have inspired a Gorean subculture.
