Heyo Brandon -- Do you have any sci-fi epics or 'sword and planet' books to recommend, and/or that served as an inspiration for your work on Prophet? Or even comics/manga of that genre (Also: How was McCaffrey's Dinosaur Planet?)

I just finished listening to the audio of TARNSMAN of GOR, which was very fun. 

When I was doing Prophet I read a lot of 70′s Conan comics - The Buscema stuff especially. And the movie YOR hunter from the future is pretty great.

Dinosaur planet was fun.

It had a race of humans who evolved dense and strong on a low gravity world.
