Description

Chaos reigns on the Counter-Earth in the long-running series that draw[s] on a combination of philosophy, science-fiction, and erotica (Vice).

After the disaster of the delta campaign, Ar is essentially defenseless. The forces of Cos and her allies are welcomed into the city as liberators. Ars Station, which held out so valiantly against superior forces in the North, is denounced as traitorous. Veterans of the delta campaign are despised and ridiculed. Patriotism and manhood are denigrated. Lawlessness and propaganda are rampant. Marlenus, the great ubar, who might have organized and led a resistance, who might have rallied the city, is presumed dead somewhere in the Voltai Mountains. Tarl is concerned with a warriors vengeance upon sedition and treachery, and, in particular, with meeting one who stands high among the conspiratorsa beautiful woman now enthroned as ubara, whose name is Talena.

Rediscover this brilliantly imagined world where men are masters and women live to serve their every desire.

Magicians of Gor is the 25th book in the Gorean Saga, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
