The eleven stories, novellas, and novels in Return to Neveryeon's four volumes chronicle a long-ago land on civilization's brink, perhaps in Asia or Africa, or even on the Mediterranean. Taken slave in childhood, Gorgik gains his freedom, leads a slave revolt, and becomes a minister of state, finally abolishing slavery. Ironically, however, he is sexually aroused by the iron slave collars of servitude. Does this contaminate his mission -- or intensify it? Presumably elaborated from an ancient text of unknown geographical origin, the stories are sunk in translators' and commentators' introductions and appendices, forming a richly comic frame.]]> 85866 5 82862 1979 Tales of Nevèrÿon total:187|5:72|4:57|3:44|2:12|1:2| 187 746 265 17 49111 3.87 4907 578 41662819 1263487 85866 081956270X 9780819562708 16 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171062758m/85866.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171062758s/85866.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/85866.Tales_of_Nev_r_on 4.01 164 1979 5 0 false Fri Jan 02 18:20:27 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 02 18:24:05 -0800 2009 more...]]> 63373998 726203 85866 081956270X 9780819562708 16 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171062758m/85866.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171062758s/85866.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/85866.Tales_of_Nev_r_on 3.99 187 1979 3 0 false Wed Jul 29 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 13 19:53:18 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 30 06:31:12 -0700 2009
