Volume four of the Chronicles of
Counter-Earth
Here is the magnificent world of Gor, known also as Counter-Earth, a planet as strangely populated, as threatening, as beautiful as any in fiction. Here too is Tarl Cabot, the one picked out of millions to be trained and schooled and disciplined by the best teachers, swordsmen, bowmen on Gor.
* Far south of the Sardar Mountains Tarl Cabot pursues his mission for the Priest-Kings of Gor.
He must find their last precious link to survival.
All Tarl knows is that it is hidden somewhere among the teeming hordes of the savage
Wagon People, and that he might well be inviting death to ask for it directly.
