Gorean Saga, Book 32

By: John Norman

Narrated by: Shannon Gunn, Lucky Summer

Length: 20 hrs and 47 mins

Publisher's summary

John Norman's epic Gorean Saga is one of the longest-running and most successful series in the history of fantasy. It is also one of the most controversial. Over the course of more than 30 books produced over a span of six decades, the series has sold millions of copies and built legions of fans unrivaled in their devotion. E-Reads invites you to rediscover this brilliantly imagined world where men are masters and women live to serve their every desire.

In what constitutes as a prequel to Mariners of Gor, we learn that a mysterious cargo, suitably disguised, was covertly placed on the great ship, a cargo that might influence the outcome of the aforementioned gamble. One narrator is a young woman, once a Miss Margaret Alyssa Cameron, and the other is an individual whose name, for reasons that will become obvious, is withheld in the manuscript. It does seem clear, however, that the individual referred to was somehow instrumental in bringing the former Miss Cameron to the height of a large slave block in the coastal city of Brundisium, one of Gor’s major ports.

Worst male voice actor ever

The male voice in this book is unlistenable. Aside from the fact that he reads as if he's is a (poor) stage magician he also cannot pronounce words either in English (wHip, wHimpering, etc) or words unique to the series, (breaking from the pronunciation previous used in the series for kajira, tabuk and even Gorean).

Worst reading ever.

taught a lesson

In Which A Slaver Learns Much Of Himself

This prequel to “Mariners” is the story of a Slaver and one of his Earth Barbarian captures. We learn of secrets and conspiracy before the sailing of the Great Ship With No Eyes. Duel Narrated. I enjoyed this book very much and I didn’t expect to. It contains information that will make events in “Rebels” much clearer, but does not resolve any mysteries. We do learn more of the Panther Girls in the Northern Forests, some of whom we first met in “Hunters.”

worst voice and accent I've ever heard

the male voice reminded me of a spoof imitation of a smug brittish stage actor reading Shakespeare, not reading a Gor novel. still a good book.

Time wasters of Gor

This book is dumb. The story is dumb, the characters are dumb and the narration is dumb. Male and females alternate chapters but when a man speaks during the females chapter it her trying to sound like a man and visa versa. No action at all and the story is irrelevant, don’t waste your time on this one. This series would have been so much better if it were written by Rice-Burrows. I wish I knew John Norman’s address so I could get my money back
