In March, 2013, this Second Printing, featuring new coverart by Cirque Studios, replaced the First Printing, originally published in June, 2007. The content of the book remained the same. Simultaniously, E-Reads, Ltd., New York also published a new eBook version, which is also carried by Kindle. As of this date (May, 2013), this is the most current paperback version of Tarnsman of Gor.
This is the enhanced and corrected version of the story of Tarnsman of Gor. The original version of the story was first published by Ballantine Books, Inc., New York in December, 1966 (here). In September 2000, in an open letter to Gor fans, entitled "How The Internet Can Change Lives!", John Norman anncounced that electronic publishing had given him the opportunity to revise, enlarge and improve the books, some more than others. As to Tarnsman of Gor, the changes were minimal, and only a few minor typos were corrected. This new enhanced version was first published in paperback format by New World Publishers in January, 2001 (here). However, due to the digital scanning process some new typos were introducted in this enhanced edition. So in June, 2007, E-Reads, Ltd., New York released a newly edited and corrected version of the story.
TARNSMAN OF GOR
Book One of the Gorean SagaTarl Cabot has always believed himself to be a citizen of Earth. He has no inkling that his destiny is far greater than the small planet he has inhabited for the first twenty-odd years of his life. One frosty winter night in the New England woods, he finds himself transported to the planet of Gor, also known as Counter-Earth, where everything is dramatically different from anything he has ever experienced. It emerges that Tarl is to be trained as a Tarnsman, one of the most honored positions in the rigid, caste-bound Gorean society. He is disciplined by the best teachers and warriors that Gor has to offer...but to what end?
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 thirty 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.
