[DAW #568; Stated 2nd Edition; March 1984]. "During the holiday revels of Port Kar, an attempt is made on the life of Tarl Cabot. And Tarl discovers that the Priest-Kings have turned against him! To clear himself of their charge of treason, he must follow the assassin's trial. The way to achieve that was to join, in disguise, a troupe of travelling Players, a sort of Gorean carnival, which would give him entry to enemy cities and hostile territories. But life in such a carnival is always a risk in itself. There are monsters in form and monsters in mind among them - and there may be spies of the alien Kurs and the omnipotent Priest-Kings. 'Players of Gor' is a rich and full adventure on that wondrous world where free men must fight and slave girls must yiel, where life and liberty may depend on the chance moves of a game-board or the edged passions of the dueling ground. And where Tarl's destiny must bring him face to face with a conspiracy of superhuman powers." Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" Tall..
