Gor (), the Counter-Earth, is the alternate-world setting for a series of 31 novels by John Norman that combine philosophy, erotica and science fiction.

The series has been variously referred to by several names including: Chronicles of Counter-Earth, Tarl Cabot Saga, Chronicles of Gor, and Gorean Saga.

In the novels these various population groups are transplants from Earth brought there by space-craft through the behind the scenes rulers of Gor, the Priest-Kings, an extraterrestrial species of insectoid appearance.

The planet Gor has lower gravity than Earth's ( which allows for the existence of large flying creatures, and tall towers connected by aerial bridges in the cities ), and would have an even lower gravity if not for the technology of the Priest-Kings.

The Priest-Kings rule Gor as disinterested custodians, leaving humans to their own affairs as long as they abide by certain restrictions on technology.

There are many similarities to real-life historical civilizations in various regions of Gor ( explained in the books by early " voyages of acquisition " the Priest-Kings undertook to populate Gor with humans from different parts of Earth ).
