Book description
Dr. Brenda Hamilton--a Ph. D. mathematician from Cal Tech--is
beautiful, though she does not know her true beauty. She is a woman,
though she does not know her true womanhood. Deep within herself she is
sensual, though her senses have been dulled by this modern world.
Hamilton has come to Africa to work under the brilliant Danish scientist
Herjellsen, a man who speaks of reaching the stars. But what does the
ancient stone axe lying on his lab table have to do with space travel?
Soon, it becomes clear that Herjellsen's experiment is much larger than
Hamilton or Herjellsen or even space travel, itself. It is about
correcting a mistake made tens of thousands of years ago in human
evolution. Thrown back in time, Hamilton must be shown her place in a
tribe known simply as "the Men," Stone Age hunters who take
what they desire and know their true manhood. Will Hamilton survive in
this savage land? Will her lover, Tree, teach her what it truly means to
be a woman? Can the spark between them put mankind back on its proper
path toward the stars? John Norman is creator of the Gorean Saga, a
series of novels spanning dozens of titles that began in 1967 with
TARNSMAN OF GOR and that are considered to be cult classics. He has also
produced a three-installment fictional series, Telnarian Histories, plus
two other fiction works and a nonfiction paperback entitled IMAGINATIVE
SEX. He continues to write new novels in the Gorean saga, notably
WITNESS OF GOR (2002) and PRIZE OF GOR (2008), both published by
E-Reads. At Gor Chronicles, a web site specially created for his
tremendous fan following, one may read everything there is to know about
this unique fictional culture. Mr. Norman was born in Chicago, Illinois
in 1931. He is married and has three children.
