About this listen

In this second volume of the Gorean Series, Tarl Cabot finds himself transported back to Counter-Earth from the sedate life he has known as a history professor on Earth. He is glad to be back in his role as a dominant warrior and back in the arms of his true love.

Yet, Tarl finds that his name on Gor has been tainted, his city defiled, and all those he loves have been made into outcasts. He is no longer in the position of a proud warrior, but an outlaw for whom the simplest answers must come at a high price. He wonders why the Priest Kings have called him back to Gor, and whether it is only to render him powerless.

look it's a bit problematic

I'm fascinated by the story even though it's objectively not great.
The main character is a total Mary Sue. Constantly describing how perilous his next plight is as he comes across them but then, with no real inconvenience to him, he somehow manages to overcome them anyway through sheer force or plot.
Also the way the story contrives, through plot, to convince the reader that everyone is better off when women are subservient to men. It try's to get away with this by having the main character disagree or not understand and the women themselves argue this is true. That's a bit frustrating because the world is interesting and some of the law and practices, creatures and concepts are really captivating. I think there could be a good story here in the hands of a more intelligent writer.
