The Tarnsman of Gor
This book is by John Norman's Gor Series. It is the first of 28 books. The story takes place on a planet that is opposite of Earth, never able to be seen by Earth. The main characters name is Tarl Cabot. He is brought to the planet Gor by his father. He is trained in the knowledge of Gor and the warrior code. He is then sent out to sabotage the city of Ar, arch enemy of Ko-ro-ba Tarl's home city. In his quest to sabotage Ar, he meets the daughter of the Ubar of Ar. He soon falls in love with her, and is forced to go through some challenges. The plot is easy and fast paced and interesting. This is a book that can be hard for some to swallow, because of the women slavery in the book. All in all this is a fun read with an interesting plot. It is primary good vs. evil where good wins out for the most part. So take the time to read this I do not think you will be disappointed. Tarnsman of Gor is a shot book only 219 pages, so even if you do not end up liking it you have not wasted much time. I give it 4 out of 5 stars.
