Book Description

Publication Date: July 12, 1983

In this second volume of the Gorean Series, Tarl Cabot finds himself transported back to Counter-Earth from the sedate life he has known as a history professor on Earth. He is glad to be back in his role as a dominant warrior and back in the arms of his true love. Yet, Tarl finds that his name on Gor has been tainted, his city defiled, and all those he loves have been made into outcasts. He is no longer in the position of a proud warrior, but an outlaw for whom the simplest answers must come at a high price

This review is from: Outlaw of Gor (Gorean Saga 2) (Kindle Edition)

"Outlaw of Gor" is the second book in John Norman's Gorean Saga. In "Outlaw of Gor", Tarl Cabot, the hero of the first novel, returns to the planet Gor to find out that the city Ko-ro-ba, which he arrived at in the first novel, has disappeared along with his beloved wife Talena. He sets out to discover why Ko-ro-ba has vanished and gets sidetracked in a quest to free the city Tharna from its tyrannical rule by the Tatrix of Tharna who is a woman.

The book shows how when women are put in power they can be just as mean as men. In the first novel, the men are oppressing women, but in this novel, in the city of Tharna it is the other way around. The book also shows that some bad people can be changed into good people if they are shown what it is like to be victimized by others.

"Outlaw of Gor" is a fast read just like "Tarnsman of Gor" is. It has lots of excitement and plot twists and it kept my interest.
