 Q #  Question

Tal. I am looking for some reference to the "Independent Islands" mentioned on your map page, thus; "Independent Islands, N of Cos, form archipelago shaped like a NE leaning scimitar" If you can find some definitive reference, I would appreciate it. I wish you well.

Answer

The words "Independent Islands" do not appear anywhere within the series.

The reference you make to these words comes from the research of Marcus_of_Ar and what he used to create the very popular map of Gor.

As he begins the outline of his research he says:
"This unofficial map of known Gor was assembled by me as part of an ongoing project, through which I hoped to gain a better understanding of the action described in John Norman's Gor series, and as an aid to any who felt that such a map would enable them to better visualize Norman's fictional world."
Therefore, there is no mention of "Independent Islands". This was just one heading of many clues Marcus_of_Ar used to create his map.

If you wish quotes from the series on the islands, I suggest going to my research I refer to as the Gorean Index.

You can find a link to it as one of the big boxes on the right side of ~The Gorean Cave~.
From that page, look for a link on the left titled Land Areas.
Next, click on Islands and press the Search button.

There you will find references to all the mentioned islands on Gor.
