Book Reviews of Assassin of Gor (Gorean Saga)
Book Review: Last of the Best
Summary: 3 Stars
This if one of the finest of the Gor series - written at a time when the tone of Norman's work was still vaguely romantic and his characters optimistic. It centres around intrigue in the city state of Ar (Glorius Ar!) and the machinations of Tarl Cabot's erstwhile father-in-law - the indomitable Marlenus of Ar, Ubar of Ubars (Lord of Lords), - who has lived in exile since the first novel in the series.
Tarl thinks that he's been sent to Ar in disguise to discover and forstall the plans of the mysterious Others, the enemies of the Priest Kings. Whilst a paramount warrior and hero, Tarl is not too bright when it comes to intrigue. Not even his fellow spy, the beautiful slave girl Elizabeth (Vella), who is also of Earth, can help him see through the myriad of plots that surround him.
Whilst their relationship hits its zenith, it is also unfortunately near the peak of Norman's writing as well. There are gladatorial battles, Tarn races, revolutions and the ubiquitous diatribes on the training of slave girls and what women *really* want.
