Fighting Slave of Gor

I loved this one! It's what a Norman fan expects. Yes, I own and have read all 25 books of John Norman's GOR Saga and would love to read 25 more. John Norman is an extraordinary writer. So what if he makes slaves out of women. Hey! This is fiction, it hapens in GOR which is at the other side of the Sun and should not affect our planet. However, his books are controversial for those who would like to enslave the minds of everyone. They are anathema for those folks out there who can determine what we can, should, and want to read. Well, too bad. I always have read whatever I want and, if I don't like it, I will not read it. Isn't that the healthy way to be? Why should a well-intentioned person forbid a book to the rest of the country is something beyond my understanding. I guess those sick friends of systematic censorship believe they are God. Certainly they don't believe in the First Amendment to the Constitution. Well, they are not gods. Just very disturbed people and should be confined to special institutions. Rebel, readers! Buy John Norman books and demand that they are reprinted! Besides that, overlooking Norman's obsession with enlaving females, his books are extraordinary. How many authors have you read that depict a whole planet, including inhabitants, flora and fauna, plus language, traditions, etc. in such a way that it's believable? I know of only one: John Norman.

The whole trilogy within the 25 book epic series from 12.Beasts of Gor (1978) 13.Explorers of Gor (1979) all the way to 14.Fighting Slave of Gor (1980) were fantastic. I could not put them down. I highly recommend them all!

I first found this book while in high school and was completely absorbed in the story. I was determined to read all the Gor books because of it...but have found it difficult because they are not readily available. It seems that John Norman was visualizing the typical Earth man of the last decade with the emphasis (and I believe OVER EMPHASIS) on "political correctness" and desexualizing human behavior. "Jason" is every bit the 90's type unisexually-seeming male but naturally and fortunately becomes the man he always wanted and feared to be.

Why is it that a small minority of small minded people can spoil life for a broad minded minority in the mistaken belief that they are saving the world from an unreal evil. The politically correct don't have to read what they don't want but why stop the rest of us it is censorship gone mad. Another mind numbingly brilliant book by Mr Norman surely there is a publisher willing to take him on?

An interesting read, especially for the ladies, in that they for once get to enjoy the pleasures of a male slave at their service.For that alone Fighting Slave stands out from the other books in the Gor series.
