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. Audible invites you to rediscover this brilliantly imagined world where men are masters and women live to serve their every desire.

Ar, defeated, shamed, systematically looted, is occupied by Cosian forces. Perhaps Marlenus of Ar, alone, the great ubar, could recall the men of Ar to the recollection of their Home Stone and its meaning. But it is thought that he perished in the Voltai. Young women from Earth brought to Gor are commonly brought for the markets, to be branded and collared, and sold as the delicious, lovely livestock they are. Such a case is the young woman whom we shall call Janice, for that name was put on her as a Gorean slave name. In the prison pits of piratical Treve, there exists a chained prisoner who believes himself to be of the Gorean peasantry. The nature and even the existence of this prisoner, strangely enough, is a closely guarded secret. In order to better keep this secret, it is decided that his servant and warder had best be no native Gorean.

i can't get into this book. Four chapters have felt like an eternity just because of this womans voice. I have heard cars with more emotional range and hairdryers with better pacing. I'm sure the story is fine. I may even read it in kindle. But i cannot deal with the narrator.

This edition of the Gorean series has, I'm sorry to say, been greatly let down by the way the narrator chose to perform their duties. Unfortunately, her performance makes the book extremely hard to engage with. The listener will find it difficult to connect with any of the characters in any meaningful way. The tambour and halting method used in performance are grating. The story, while not up to Mr Norman's usual level, is entertaining and flows well. It is set at a slower pace than his other novels but, as this story is focused on a female character, this is understandable. All in all the author would be well advised to ask for a different narrator to reach a wider audience.

Read by a robot, perhaps?

this is actually painful stuff to listen to, monotonous and sleep inducing like an overdose of laxative that leaves a pile of skin after all the meat,guts and bones have been expelled from your anus
