There's simply too much slave-girl description and not nearly enough story. Having got to book number 9 in this ongoing series I almost feel like I'm letting myself down by not ploughing on through these slave sections, but then I remind myself that they do tend to be taking up more and more of the novels, and so I'm learning to forgive myself. I'll almost certainly read the odd one here and there, if only to reassure myself that I've made the right decision. Its such a shame too, since there were one of two moments that had me thinking how good this one was turning out to be, only have that illusion shattered. There are apparently some excellent battle scenes a little later in the story, which is a pity since I'm just unable to force myself on any more, and am probably missing out. Oh well. No-one can say I didn't give this series a good go. I've enjoyed a lot of it. Maybe I just need to put a little space between us for a while. Goodbye Gor! I shall remember you fondly... EDIT: After a short break I'm back to give it another go. Fingers crossed I'll finish it this time. ...watch this space! ok, just finished this and enjoyed the last part of the story. As it turns out there was remarkably little sex-slavery type stuff from here on out(for a gor novel I mean). The battle wasn't bad, although I've read better written battle scenes, and I liked the way it hinted toward greater adventures up there and out there as it were, what with Tarl Cabot looking up at the sky and stars etc at the end. All things considered, I'm glad I came back and finished it. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"A really fun, Beowulf-style action story" in the long-running, cult classic science fiction adventure series set on a Counter Earth (Pulp Week). Former Earthman Tarl Cabot is now a powerful Tarnsman of the brutal and caste-bound planet of Gor, also known as Counter Earth. He embarks on an adventure in the dangerous and mysterious wilderness of Gor, pitting his warrior's skills against treacherous outlaws, bandits, and fighters. Three different women are working to bring change to Tarl's far-from-peaceful life on Gor: Talena, his onetime queen and first love; Elizabeth, his brave fighting partner; and the Amazonian Verna, chief of the fierce and wild panther women. As Tarl journeys through the wilderness, the fates of these three remarkable women will finally be decided. Rediscover this brilliantly imagined world where men are masters and women live to serve their every desire. Marauders of Gor is the 9th book in the Gorean Saga, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
