Story
In this sixth book in the Gorean series, former earthman Tarl Cabot finds himself in the most depraved city that Gor has to offer. Port Kar is a city of robbers, brigands and men without allegiance to any cause or kingdom where the weak are quickly consumed by the strong. However, Tarl Cabot is able to flourish in the cutthroat environment of the city, for he is a powerful Tarnsman, used to having his way. He finds that there is much to learn in Port Kar, where the people are celebrated for their skill of training their voluptuous slaves into utter obedience.

Former Earthman Tarl Cabot is now a powerful Tarnsman of the brutal and caste-bound planet of Gor, also known as Counter-Earth. He embarks on an adventure in the dangerous and mysterious wilderness of Gor, pitting his warrior's skills against treacherous outlaws, bandits, and fighters. Three different women are working to bring change to Tarl's far-from-peaceful life on Gor: Talena, his one-time queen and first love; Elizabeth, his brave fighting partner; and the Amazonian Verna, chief of the fierce and wild panther women. As Tarl journeys through the wilderness, the fates of these three remarkable women will finally be decided.

Story
Welcome to Gor, a parallel Earth, where social norms are exotic and the way of life is brutal. In the fifth book in the Gorean Series, the deadly assassin Kuurus is intent on a bloody mission of vengeance. His adventure takes him from the caste of the pleasure-slaves, which are rigorously trained in the rules and techniques of sexual ecstasy, to the brutal arenas where humans participate in deadly hand-to-hand combat. He witnesses violence, conflict and uncertainty, as the inhabitants of Counter-Earth are forced to confront their destinies…no matter how exalted or debased.

In this, the 12th book in the famous Gor series, the fight for survival on the primitive, Earthlike world, Gor, continues with a ferocity that matches the rest of the series. On Gor, there are three different kinds of beings that are labeled beasts: There are the Kurii, a monster alien race that is preparing to invade Gor from space; the Gorean warriors, who fight with viciousness almost primitive in its blood lust' and then there are the slave girls of Gor, lowly beasts for men to do with as they see fit, be it as objects of labor or desire.

She lives in a quiet, lonely, dissatisfying, sheltered, frustrated desperation, distant from her true self, her nature denied, her only friends books and her secret thoughts. In the realization and enactment of a profound fantasy, after acute self-conflict, she dares to study dancing, a form of dance in which she is at last free to move her body as a female, a form of dance in which she may revel in her beauty and womanhood....

poor narration because of pronunciation.
I give this low marks because of narration and the pronunciation of the words that were spoken so well in the other books before this book. Consistent pronunciation to me is imperative because it makes it hard to follow when listening and confusing.

I hate romance novels! But.....
Where does Captive of Gor rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This book is not the best I've ever listened to. That said, it was the best in this series that I've listened to so far since the first one.
What did you like best about this story?
The book adds to the previous ones a rich depth. Which, when taken with the others, makes this one of the most comprehensive (in terms of subject matter) and addictive series I've read so far. I have never come back to a book I've read or listened to more than once, save Tolkien. This series, however, has me. I know I will return to at least these first seven multiple times.
What about Lexi Maynard’s performance did you like?
Lexi Maynard was very good at putting the proper emotions, inflections, and depth into her reading. I have been slightly let down a few times in the previous books by the reader expressing a quote in one way and then reading a description of the quote they just said finding it entirely different.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
YES!!!
Any additional comments?
I don't read romance novels, and truly, I would not call this one. It did at some points resemble such but I think it was only because the main character was to be portrayed as an extraordinarily emotional woman going through largely emotional and psychological changes. I would implore others who don't typically read the romance genre to look more deeply at the philosophies or honor and lifestyle in the book rather than taking it as a lewd form of entertainment.

This book is focused on exploring a females view of the World of Gor. Captured from earth and thrust into a new life.
