Book 1. (8 results) Tarnsman of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
2 57 I was surprised to find myself accepting this stranger not only as a being of my world, but as the father I couldn't remember.
Details
10
2 67 I felt somehow a kinship with him, with this stranger and his sorrow.
Details
10
2 268 Most keenly perhaps, I missed that he had not spoken to me of himself, for I wanted to know him, that kindly, remote stranger whose bones were in my body, whose blood flowed in mine—my father.

Book 2. (20 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
6 27 The Gorean is suspicious of the stranger, particularly in the vicinity of his native walls.
Details
10
6 28 Indeed, in Gorean the same word is used for both stranger and enemy.
Details
10
6 29 There was reputedly one exception to this generally prevalent attitude of hostility toward the stranger, the city of Tharna, which, according to rumor, was willing to engage in what on Gor might be accounted the adventure of hospitality.
Details
10
6 101 Then, to the barbaric, intoxicating music of the flute and drums, she dances for her captor, the bells on her ankles marking each of her movements, the movements of a girl stolen from her home, who must now live to please the bold stranger whose binding fiber she had felt, whose collar she wore.
Details
10
8 48 It was an intelligent precaution for Tharna to take, to keep an eye on the stranger, lest her hospitality be abused.
Details
10
8 65 "Stranger," said a voice.
Details
10
8 74 "You are a stranger in this city," he said.
Details
10
8 76 "Who are you, Stranger?" "I am a man of no city," I said, "whose name is Tarl".
Details
10
8 115 "But are you not intrigued, Stranger," asked the man, his pale eyes squinting up at me through the folds of the gray robe, "by the offer of a tarn, gold and provisions?" "What must I do to earn this?" I asked.
Details
10
9 43 "You are a stranger," he said.
Details
10
9 45 "Flee, Stranger," said he.

10
10 26 How would my word, the word of a stranger, weigh against the words of Ost, a citizen of Tharna and perhaps one of significance? Yet, incredibly perhaps, I looked forward to seeing the palace and the Tatrix, to meeting face to face the unusual woman who could rule, and rule well, a city of Gor.
Details
10
11 45 "Is it thus, Stranger," she asked, her tones cold, "that you expected to carry from the city the wealth of Tharna?" I was puzzled, my body was racked with pain, my vision was blurred with sweat.
Details
10
11 66 "Why did you not kneel, Stranger?" asked the Tatrix of Tharna.
Details
10
11 86 "Then, Stranger," said the Tatrix, "I am sorry for you".
Details
10
11 122 "How is it," I asked, "that you spare a warrior the whip and would use it on so miserable a wretch as Ost?" "I had hoped you guiltless, Stranger," said she.
Details
10
11 218 "Sometimes, Stranger," she said, "it is hard to be First in Tharna".
Details
10
13 99 "Stranger," said he, "I intend to survive the Amusements of Tharna at least once more".
Details
10
21 142 "Good day, Master," smiled Targo, bowing as well as he could from the waist, hastily taking account of the unlikely stranger who stood before him.
Details
10
26 134 There will be few to note the stranger who leaves the city, perhaps few to remember that he was once within their walls.

Book 11. (51 results) Slave Girl of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
2 445 The stranger's spear had penetrated the shield of he who was one of my captors, and the stranger, bracing the shaft between his arm and body, had lifted his opponent's shield and turned, throwing it and his opponent, who had not the time to slip from the shield straps, to the ground at his feet.
Details
10
2 519 With a cry he forced back the bearded man, who fell, stumbling in the shield, backward, and then lay on the grass before the stranger, the stranger's blade at his throat.
Details
10
2 391 He faced the stranger, who still crouched a few yards away.
Details
10
2 393 It was as though he were giving the stranger an opportunity to withdraw.
Details
10
2 394 Perhaps a mistake had been made? Perhaps there had been a misunderstanding? The stranger, crouching in the grass, his shield beside him, the butt of the spear in the grass, the weapon upright, its point against the sky, nodded.
Details
10
2 407 The stranger, now, stood.
Details
10
2 416 He stood separated from the stranger by some forty feet.
Details
10
2 429 Then, suddenly, the stranger, laughing, lifted his spear and struck its butt into the ground.
Details
10
2 443 The spear of him who was one of my captors seemed to leap upward and away, caroming from the oblique, lifted surface of the stranger's shield.
Details
10
2 446 The stranger's blade, now, loosed from its sheath, under the opponent's helmet, lay at his throat.
Details
10
2 447 But the stranger did not strike.
Details
10
2 455 He charged the other, the stranger, and swiftly did the two engage.
Details
10
2 472 The stranger stepped back from him, his blade bloody.
Details
10
2 476 "Kajira canjellne," said the stranger.
Details
10
2 481 The stranger bent to lift the penetrated shield, that he might remove from it his bronze-headed weapon.
Details
10
2 483 Before I could respond in horror or my body move the stranger had reacted, rolling to the side and, in an instant, regaining his feet, assuming an on-guard position.
Details
10
2 484 As my cry of misery escaped my lips the thrust of the bearded man's spear had passed to the left of the stranger's helmet.
Details
10
2 485 The stranger had not remained at the vicinity of the shield with its penetrating spear, but had abandoned it.
Details
10
2 486 For the first time now the stranger did not seem pleased.
Details
10
2 489 He faced the stranger now, sword drawn.
Details
10
2 492 But the stranger had not rushed upon him.
Details
10
2 496 The stranger was not there.

10
2 497 Twice more the bearded man charged, and each time the stranger seemed not to be at the point of intended impact.

2 498 The fourth time the stranger was behind him and on his left.

10
2 499 The stranger's sword was at his left armpit.
Details
10
2 501 The stranger's sword moved.
Details
10
2 502 The stranger stepped back.
Details
10
2 509 I then realized, as I had not before, the skill of the stranger.
Details
10
2 515 It was with humiliating skill that the stranger toyed with the stumbling, white-faced bearded man, he who had, minutes before, been preparing to cut my throat.
Details
10
2 516 Bound, kneeling in the circle, it was with sudden, frightening elation that I realized the stranger was the master of the other two.
Details
10
2 520 The stranger, in contempt, then stepped back.
Details
10
2 522 The stranger stood back, in the on-guard position.
Details
10
2 525 He stood regarding the stranger.

2 526 The stranger slipped his own blade back in the sheath.

29 1529 The stranger had moved swiftly back, warily.

29 1539 The stranger had not permitted them to take him between them, Fulvius engaging him, Callisthenes and Sempronius seeking their openings from the sides.

10
29 1542 I do not think steel had crossed more than three or four times before the stranger had leapt back, and then backed away.

29 1555 It there was an initiative here, or some advantage, oddly enough it seemed to lie on the side of the stranger, not the pair of them.

29 1635 "For whom?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
29 1637 "No," said the stranger.

10
29 1646 The stranger did this perhaps to torture them, I supposed, that they might be so close to half-naked female slaves and yet be forbidden to so much as touch them.
Details
10
29 1647 After we had been fed, and Callisthenes and Sempronius, too, had partaken of food, the stranger directed them to put us in coffle, with the exception of Tupita.

31 64 I was particularly pleased to do them before the stranger.

31 69 I wanted to hurry about the fire, and throw myself on my belly before the stranger, tears in my eyes, covering his feet and ankles with kisses, his helpless slave, begging his touch.

31 90 The stranger then took a length of binding fiber from his wallet and walked about the fire.

10
31 108 If this were some plan on the part of the stranger and him presumably he would not have asked this question.
Details
10
31 110 "Master, may I speak?" I asked the stranger.
Details
10
31 113 I then realized that this must be some scheme into which she had entered with the stranger.

10
31 117 He had watched the stranger place, pull tight and knot the cords.
Details
10
31 121 He was clearly no stranger to the binding of women.

31 122 The stranger then returned to his place on the other side of the fire, where he sat down, cross-legged.

31 125 The stranger closed it.

10
31 138 "What?" asked the stranger.

10
31 142 Surely she, of all people, would not desire that! "Must a command be repeated?" inquired the stranger.

10
31 149 I looked back, at the stranger, frightened.
Details
10
31 150 "Very well," said the stranger, to Mirus.
Details
10
31 152 I realized now what the plan of Tupita and the stranger must have been.
Details
10
31 163 The plan, then, of Tupita and the stranger had been a simple one, involving the utilization of a common biological universal, the placatory behaviors of the errant female before the dominant male.
Details
10
31 168 "You do not mind, do you?" asked the stranger, "if she performs for the rest of us?" "Of course not," said Mirus.

31 198 I wanted so to please the stranger.

31 200 "Your legs are short," said the stranger.

10
31 205 I saw from the stranger's eyes that I was to particularly dance myself to Mirus.
Details
10
31 219 Sometimes, too, I tried to dance before the stranger, but his eyes would inform me that it was before Mirus that I was to dance slave beauty.
Details
10
31 226 "She is sorry! She begs forgiveness!" I looked to the stranger, in his mask, from where I lay.
Details
10
31 244 Could he mean that the stranger had put claim upon me, and that it was to his whip that I was now subject? But, of course, he may have meant only that I belonged to Ionicus of Cos.

33 5 It was to this tavern the stranger, haggard, destitute, in his rags, in his soiled mariner's cap, had come, and regaled us with a story, however far-fetched.
Details
10
33 8 "You are a liar," said the proprietor to the stranger.
Details
10
33 11 The stranger smiled, as though discovered.
Details
10
33 13 The stranger took no offense.
Details
10
33 15 I saw, clearly, that the stranger had not expected to be believed, and was not concerned that he had been found out, had he been found out.
Details
10
33 32 She had been brought to the table, last night, to serve the stranger paga.
Details
10
33 41 "Is this not an attractive barbarian?" I asked the stranger.
Details
10
33 55 "I understand," said the stranger to the slave, "that you have not been named".
Details
10
33 64 I saw they were indeed unfamiliar to the stranger.
Details
10
33 69 "He is a Scribe," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 83 "She seems to me quite intelligent," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 99 "Intelligence is often associated with the intensity of slave fires," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 107 "Touch her," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 120 "Touch her," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 144 "You are the first who has done so, on this world!" "He is privy to the second knowledge," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 179 "No less!" The stranger laughed.
Details
10
33 190 "My thanks," I said to the stranger, "for your unusual tale".
Details
10
33 192 I looked down at the table, where the two quarrels, fired by the Assassins, had struck the wood, piercing it, scattering splinters about, when the stranger had interposed it between himself and their missiles.
Details
10
33 195 "But then," said the stranger, "the tale would be true".
Details
10
33 211 "Then," said the stranger, "you are a fool.
Details
10
33 224 "You found the slave attractive," I said to the stranger.
Details
10
33 260 Who can understand such things? How piteously, how zealously, I thought, the girl had begged to be purchased! And how well, I thought, would my collar look on the neck of that slave! "And how would you keep her?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
33 268 Several of us, who had listened through the night, bade the stranger a hale farewell.
Details
10
33 270 "Would you believe your story?" asked a fellow of the stranger.
Details
10
33 273 "Probably not then, either," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 278 The stranger and I were then alone, on the street, before the tavern.
Details
10
33 279 "Come with me," I said to the stranger.
Details
10
33 298 "I hear the bar," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 301 "Is it an alarm?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
33 309 "Is the signal commonly so vigorous?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
33 314 "Surely it is an alarm," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 318 "It sounds like no simple announcement to me," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 327 The stranger and I were jostled.
Details
10
33 333 "Could it be the ship of Tersites?" I asked the stranger, though he, of course, was in no position to see better than I, from our current position.
Details
10
33 340 "Aii!" cried the stranger, as we surmounted a small rise, and then had the piers below us, and before us.
Details
10
33 344 "I have," said the stranger.
Details
10
33 353 "That," I said, turning to the stranger, "is a ship from the World's End".
Details
10
33 354 "It is," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 4 "Yes," had said the stranger.
Details
10
35 9 "Wait!" I cautioned the stranger.
Details
10
35 27 I looked to the stranger.
Details
10
35 30 "Yes," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 31 I recalled that last night the stranger had alluded to this matter.
Details
10
35 33 "What is such a ship doing here, in Brundisium?" I asked the stranger.
Details
10
35 46 "Almost certainly," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 49 "Of far and strange things," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 51 "I have gathered so," said the stranger, "long ago, by the intervention of Priest-Kings".
Details
10
35 56 "I do not know," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 58 "It is Demetrion!" "Who is Demetrion?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
35 63 The guardsmen had rather followed Demetrion's party, for which, I gathered, they had been waiting, and this permitted the stranger and myself, and the crowd, generally, to proceed several yards further down the pier.
Details
10
35 86 "I know him," said the stranger to me.
Details
10
35 91 "Enough," I asked, "to hire Assassins?" The stranger looked at me, startled.
Details
10
35 94 The stranger pressed back, unwilling, I gathered, to be noted.
Details
10
35 99 "I think so," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 117 To my surprise, the stranger left my side, and slipped, unprevented, between the guardsmen, retrieved the sack, assured himself, it seemed, of its weight, which was apparently impressive, and climbed up the gangplank.
Details
10
35 120 The stranger, at the head of the gangplank, held out the sack of coin to the angular fellow, who had cast it to the feet of Demetrion.
Details
10
35 124 "This sack, I take it," said the stranger, "contains ten tarn disks, of double weight".
Details
10
35 126 The stranger then removed one such disk from the sack, and held it up.
Details
10
35 129 The stranger then handed the sack, less the single tarn disk, to the angular warrior, who replaced it in his sash.
Details
10
35 130 The stranger then tossed the single coin which had been extracted from the sack to the planks at the feet of Demetrion, who swiftly reached down, and snatched it up.
Details
10
35 139 "I am Nakamura," said the angular fellow, presumably an officer, certainly a warrior, to the stranger.
Details
10
35 140 The stranger bowed, which gesture of greeting was returned by the officer, Nakamura.
Details
10
35 141 "I do not know you," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 143 "You have come to Brundisium," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 146 "You know me, then," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 149 "Scarcely by myself," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 151 "I fear so," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 153 "I regret his displeasure," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 155 "I am sure of it," said the stranger.
Details
10
35 157 "You have been successful," said the stranger.

36 1 The Warehouse; The Encounter with Cineas, the Agent of Tyrtaios; The Gift of Lord Nishida and Tarl Cabot, Tarnsman It was now four days following the docking of the Pani ship, the River Dragon, and the stranger and I, invited by Captain Nakamura and the harbor master, Demetrion, who now seemed on s...
Details
10
36 26 The stranger and I, it may be recalled, had been invited to the warehouse by Demetrion, the harbor master, and Captain Nakamura, captain of the River Dragon, now wharfed nearby.
Details
10
36 28 Demetrion knew little more of the stranger, the Cosian, Callias of Jad, than the fact that he may have cost the harbor, or, better, its administration, a number of golden tarn disks, of double weight.
Details
10
36 34 "Neither am I," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 36 "He has been seen with me," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 39 "Give me a sword," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 41 It was not a Pani sword, but a gladius, a weapon with which, I took it, the stranger would be familiar.
Details
10
36 43 The stranger smiled, and turned to me, who stood at the foot of the gangway.
Details
10
36 47 "The harbor office will know his residence," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 49 But the stranger had already descended the gangplank.
Details
10
36 52 * * * * Demetrion, the harbor master, had been with the captain, the stranger and myself, on the floor of the large, crowded warehouse, but Demetrion now excused himself, being anxious, one supposed, to do some looking about, and trading himself.
Details
10
36 53 "You wished to see me?" said the stranger to Nakamura, captain of the River Dragon.
Details
10
36 54 Captain Nakamura glanced to me, politely, but the stranger encouraged him, saying that he might speak in my presence.
Details
10
36 56 "I have not sold the blade yet," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 58 "I have remained in seclusion for four days," said the stranger, "and am now invited to the warehouse".
Details
10
36 63 "Eluded?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
36 66 "Why?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
36 78 The stranger did not seem surprised at this report.
Details
10
36 81 "A personal enmity, or resentment, may have been involved there," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 93 "His loss could be grievous," said the stranger, "as Tyrtaios was a high officer in the resistance, knows much of its organization, and is familiar with the defenses of the castle of Lord Temmu.
Details
10
36 99 "I would suppose not," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 105 "This was the man, Cineas?" said the stranger.
Details
10
36 108 "That," smiled the stranger, "was to be my reward".
Details
10
36 110 "He seemed amiable enough," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 116 "Nor will they," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 119 "You are in danger," I said to the stranger.
Details
10
36 128 "Cineas," said the stranger, "may not even know they failed".
Details
10
36 131 "I know him," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 135 "What was the fee?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
36 145 "The cove was empty," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 148 "Assassins now seek Cineas?" said the stranger.
Details
10
36 151 "It seems then," I said to the stranger, "that you have nothing to fear".
Details
10
36 155 "When one learns that," said the stranger, "that one is sought, by the black caste, it is often too late".
Details
10
36 157 "In any event," said the captain to the stranger, "I would not yet sell my sword".
Details
10
36 158 "I understand," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 160 "True," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 193 "I am pleased," said the stranger, "to have had conveyed to me the greetings of Lord Nishida and Tarl Cabot, commander of the tarn cavalry".
Details
10
36 209 "And, if it returned," said the stranger, "would it not again face the torches of the castle?" "Of course," said the captain.
Details
10
36 212 "True," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 214 "Yes," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 217 "Of course," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 220 "What would you have done?" asked the stranger.
Details
10
36 223 "I see," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 225 "Yes," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 229 "I have seen him," said the stranger.
Details
10
36 234 "We put out word in the city," said the stranger, "here and there, that Callias, of Cos, would frequent these premises sometime today".
Details
10
36 238 "I am pleased," said the stranger.
