Bonus – WordPress Prompt – Controversial

I’m a little late to the party with this prompt, but bare with me.

I’ve always been intrigued with novels that have controversy attached and this one is no exception. I was introduced to this series by someone who is no longer a friend unfortunately. We drifted apart many years ago, though I often think about them when I read this one. Her and I were two peas in a pod, our novel preferences were no exception.

Tarnsman of Gor by John Norman is one of my favourite books and extremely controversial. It’s set on a counter-earth known as Gor and the society is based on a caste system. The novels are criticized for their focus on dominant men and submissive women relationships, often the women are in positions of slavery, but not all women. It’s a Sci-Fi fantasy with BDSM laced into the story. It is intriguing and creative, but if you intend to read it, makes sure you read it with an open mind. It is definitely not for everyone.

I’ve read this at least 4 times since I was 20, it’s not all that fantastic when compared to other Sci-Fi novels, but it captures my attention every time.

That’s it, that’s all. Pretty boring stuff.

Ciao!
