The Gor Saga Continues
This is another of the books where the Point of View character is female and a slave. The difference is that she wanted to be a slave on Earth and couldn't find anyone worthy enough or even willing to be her Master. She is not the quarry being sought. The book revisits some people and places from previous books and does a good job with the underlying story of secrets, sometimes revealed; duplicity; hidden identity; double dealing and double crossing and of course, many people not being who they claim to be.It also leaves open a sequel to continue the story with what happens next to some of the characters.

Another great book after Plunders of Gor!!
Like most readers, I wasn't looking forward to another Slave-book but really liked Plunders of Gor. Once again this is a lot better than other Slave-books! I think John Norman has taken our complaints into account and I think his Gor books are actually getting better with age. This Quarry of Gor continues the story of Talena/Adraste not from the perspective of Tarl Cabot but from other Slave Girls and the main Slave Girl Zia is actually really smart and inquisitive! Great read and looking forward to Gor Book #36!! Thank you John Norman!!

Familiar Theme, But Not a Bad Read for Fans of Gor
I was pleased to hear that John Norman released another story to the Gorean Saga but after reading the back cover, I was disappointed that it appeared Tarl Cabot was not in the story. A decent telling of a familiar theme - cold, stiff, well-off/professional woman who disdains men of Earth - who finds herself on the strange and different world of Gor. I was correct as the story did not include Tarl.Having read all of the books - all at least twice - I admit that the story, again familiar, was not bad. Stuffy Woman of Earth finds her Master and happiness on Gor after being caught up in the usual Gorean mystery and intrigue. Samos had a brief part and Tarl was mentioned as well as one minor and one major character from Ar from previous stories. I gained some knowledge of the current status of those cast members but am anxious, and hopeful, that Tarl will return for at least one more story.

Action-Packed & Exciting!
An astoundingly easy read, for a Gorean novel, and easily the most action-packed slave perspective novels John Norman has thus far released! The narrative was largely straightforward and free from the tedious flashbacks and repetitions of several of the other more recent releases, such as Conspirators, though it lacked the some of the poetic verbiage of Smugglers. Unfortunately, we've been left with another cliffhanger! Let us hope Book 36 is in the works.

Not regular kajira volume
Spoiler alert-Not regular kajira book- looks like is set up to conclude the series- has the return of pa-kur, dorna the proud, a mysterious Kur- whom I’m guessing Is half ear- so is absolutely necessary to read for the next Cabot volume- and I skip most of the kajira books

Well done
Once again, good sir, you have secured another wonderful chapter in the Gorean Saga. Yet again I shall patiently await book 36. Than you

mediocre writing
Never before have I read so many run on sentences in a published book. In order to grasp the story line and enjoy the plot, it’s necessary to look past all the commas. Since I am a long time fan of these novels, I have learned the knack of reading them.

so many loose ends tied up, and more left for later
First thing to say is this is a slave girl book, and if you have read any other slave girl books, then you have read half of it already. Although to be fair over the last few books he is adding a new dimension to slave girls. Free women have gone from looking down on the girls to carrying whips to attack them on sight.Concentrating on the other half of the book, I cannot recall Tarl Cabot getting a mention, although Bosk of Port Kar is lurking in the background through most of the book.The book itself brings back a number of characters' from the early books (Pre marauders), to the extend I was surprised that Misk the Priest - King never reappeared, but there are so many loose ends maybe he will be in the next book.Once you have cut out the repetitive chapters, that could be in any of his books, you will find a tight fast paced story. But if you have not read the early books you will not understand the major undercurrent of this one.My biggest disappointment with this book, was its end, there was not one you are left hanging waiting on the next book.

Boring!!!
This is not the first novel of Gor I read but this is surely one of the less entertaining of the saga. The author seems to lack enough ideas to write a long novel and keeps repeating over and over the by now too well known theory about women and their natural need to be dominated. Moreover, after such digressions - often many pages long - he repeats and summarizes what he said just few pages before thus continuosly breaking up the rhythm of the story.
