Book 1. (47 results) Tarnsman of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
12 8 Slowly, with a stylized movement, the helmet was lifted, and I found myself staring up into a gray, lean, cruel face, a face that might have been made of metal.

10
14 83 "Damn your precious stinking honor!" Without realizing what I was doing, I had shaken the two restraining tarnsmen from my arms as if they had been children, and I rushed on Marlenus and struck him violently in the face with my fist, causing him to reel backward, his face contorted with astonishment...
Details
10
14 95 As I found a moment's respite, I spun to face him, hoping to have it out with the Ubar himself, but as I did so, the shackles that I had worn struck me forcibly in the face and throat, thrown like a bolo by Marlenus.

1 202 I slipped and fell dozens of times and ran into the prickly branches of the pines, the needles stabbing at my face.

2 69 Something stirred in me, obscure, painful memories that had been silent, quiet for many years—the memory of a woman I had barely known, of a gentle face, of arms that had protected a child who had awakened frightened in the night.
Details
10
2 70 And I remembered suddenly another face, behind hers.
Details
10
2 72 He straightened and turned to face me across that simple, strange room.

Details
10
4 114 I struggled to my feet and staggered to the laving bowl on the table and splashed some water in my face.

7 33 I had hardly taken her in my arms when she struck my face viciously with one muddy hand.
Details
10
7 91 I placed my hand on Nar's grotesque face, and the gentle monster lightly closed his mandibles on my arm and then opened them.
Details
10
7 113 She was screaming wildly, all control lost in the face of the slow, ugly death awaiting her.
Details
10
7 170 With both hands I wrenched the veil back from her face, thrusting my hand under it to fasten my fist in her hair, and then, as if she were a common tavern girl or a camp slut, I dragged the daughter of the Ubar of all Gor to the shelter of the Ka-la-na trees.
Details
10
7 172 She tried frantically to readjust the folds of her veil, but with both hands I tore it fully away, and she lay at my feet, as it is said on Gor, face-stripped.
Details
10
7 176 "I like it better," I said, "being able to see the face of my enemy.
Details
10
7 178 In fury she glared up at me, shamed as my eyes boldly regarded the beauty of her face.
Details
10
7 226 She strode to face me, her eyes mocking and triumphant, seeing me shackled and in her power.
Details
10
7 227 She spat viciously in my face, which insult I accepted, unmoving.
Details
10
8 2 The common soldier, setting the crossbow on the ground, strode to the daughter of the Ubar, who stood as though stunned, her face drained of color.
Details
10
8 73 The girl dropped the weapon, sinking to her knees and covering her face with her hands.
Details
10
8 171 Her eyes widened questioningly, but she read only resolve in my face.
Details
10
9 3 As we crossed the grain fields, she explained to me the dangers we would most likely face, primarily from the beasts of the plains and from passing strangers.
Details
10
9 55 I glimpsed the face beneath the hood and felt sick.
Details
10
9 137 I have heard she has the temper of a tharlarion and a face to match!" Talena stiffened, her pride offended.
Details
10
9 143 The warrior's face clouded, but only for an instant.
Details
10
9 151 His face was white beneath his helmet as he wildly attempted to parry my devastating attack.
Details
10
10 25 Mintar's face clouded.
Details
10
10 161 "I shall not brand her today," I said, keeping a straight face.
Details
10
10 165 Talena sprang to her feet, her two fists flying for my face.
Details
10
10 176 "I suppose," she said, attempting to save face, "it would perhaps be appropriate for a tarnsman to place his collar on the captive daughter of a rich merchant".
Details
10
10 205 She cooked for us, kneeling by the fire, her hair bound back so as not to catch the sparks, her face sweaty and intent on the piece of meat she was most likely burning.

10
10 210 Talena blushed and lowered her face, rubbing vigorously on the leather of my tharlarion boots.

11 12 If I could have, I would in that moment have rewritten the past, would have selfishly abandoned the quest for the Home Stone—yes, willingly would have left the scattered hostile cities of Gor to face, one by one, the imperialistic depredations of Ar, if it were not for one thing—the gi...

11 19 His face was sweating, and he fumbled in his heavy wallet, taking out tarn disks and tossing them to the warriors for their work.

15 140 Mintar bowed his head in mock ceremony, a wry smile on his fat face, and with one short finger delicately tipped his own Ubar, causing it to fall.
Details
10
15 243 He dropped the hood of the yellow robe about his face, ready to go, then turned to me once more.
Details
10
16 46 It seemed probable that food and water would soon be scarce in the city and that the Initiates, whose resistance had been unimaginative and who were apparently unable to protect the city, would be forced to face a hungry and desperate population.
Details
10
17 79 My wonder and horror must have been written large on my face, because a tharlarion lancer standing beside me regarded me with amusement.
Details
10
17 86 "To save face before the citizens of Ar, they have demanded that Pa-Kur respect their decree and impale her".
Details
10
19 51 I turned to face him, and the fury of what he meant to me ripped through my body, surging like a volcano, almost dominating me.

Book 2. (58 results) Outlaw of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
4 104 In that brief moment, in the tiny pool of blood I held, I saw not myself but a strange face, like a globe of gold with disklike eyes, a face like none I had ever seen, a face that struck an eerie terror into my heart.
Details
10
6 91 Angrily she looks from face to face.
Details
10
10 26 How would my word, the word of a stranger, weigh against the words of Ost, a citizen of Tharna and perhaps one of significance? Yet, incredibly perhaps, I looked forward to seeing the palace and the Tatrix, to meeting face to face the unusual woman who could rule, and rule well, a city of Gor.
Details
10
19 9 And the eyes of Ost, too, like those of a terrified urt, looked from face to face, pleading, but Ost found no pity in those eyes that looked upon him as though they might have been composed of stone.
Details
10
1 112 He looked down into the sweating, frightened fat face.
Details
10
3 43 The whiskers had been scraped from his face, probably by the blade of the broad, double-headed wood ax bound on top of the bundle.
Details
10
3 71 He regarded me, and I thought the trace of a smile cracked through the stubbled leather of his broad face.
Details
10
3 136 He struggled with himself, his simple wide face twisted in agony, his eyes tortured.
Details
10
5 27 The thought struck me that I, Tarl of Ko-ro-ba, a mortal, here in the night on this road, might be looking upon the face of a Priest-King.
Details
10
5 36 I turned to face him.
Details
10
6 144 Without speaking, she slowly unwound the veil from her face and dropped it to her shoulders.
Details
10
6 145 She stood before me, as it is said, face-stripped, and that by her own hand.
Details
10
6 147 Her hair was brown and fine, the splendid gray eyes seemed even more clear, and her face, I saw, was beautiful, even more beautiful than I had imagined.
Details
10
6 151 I knew that this might be the first time a man had looked upon her face, except perhaps a member of her own family, if she had such.
Details
10
6 185 "You will hold me for them, you will claim right of capture and demand a portion of my price!" She spat in my face.
Details
10
6 223 A look of gratitude flashed in the girl's face.
Details
10
7 29 His face was heavy and yellowish, but mottled with patches of purple where small veins had burst under the skin.
Details
10
8 18 Whereas there is status in the capture of a free woman, there is less risk in the capture of a slave; the pursuit is never pressed as determinedly in their cases, and one does not have to imperil one's life for a girl who might, once the Robes of Concealment have been cast off, turn out to have the ...
Details
10
8 22 The masks were of identical design, each formed in the semblance of a beautiful, but cold face.
Details
10
8 68 His face was concealed in the folds of his robe.
Details
10
8 69 With one hand he held the folds together, lest the wind should lift the cloth and reveal his face, and with the other hand, he clutched the rail on the bridge, as if uncomfortable, uneasy at the height.
Details
10
8 95 With both hands I reached to his hood and jerked it from his face.
Details
10
8 97 I had caught a brief glimpse of a sallow face, with skin like a dried lemon and pale blue eyes.
Details
10
8 99 The sallow-faced man, clutching the folds of the hood about his face, twisted his head to the left and the right to see if anyone might be near, if anyone might have observed.
Details
10
9 105 I went to an obscure, deserted table near the back of the room, where I could face the door.
Details
10
10 67 I tried to rise but was pressed down, my face to the stone.
Details
10
11 30 He strode to face me.
Details
10
11 104 The yellowish, purple-marked face split into a grin and Thorn's fist tightened on the whip.
Details
10
12 36 The shadows of the tiny tharlarion-oil lamp far above flickered on the walls, on the face of the girl.
Details
10
13 149 The first man to reach me was the man in wrist straps, his face livid with rage.
Details
10
13 150 He savagely struck me across the face with his coiled whip.
Details
10
14 24 I grinned up at the golden mask, and taking the scarf slowly wiped the sand and sweat from my face.
Details
10
14 68 I turned to face him.
Details
10
14 72 I laughed in his face.
Details
10
14 74 "I am not afraid of you," he said, his face white, backing away.
Details
10
14 208 The golden arms of her robe, the hands gloved in gold, were flung across her face.
Details
10
15 65 I turned to face the Tatrix.
Details
10
15 120 "What are you going to do with me?" she asked, her face to the wall, not deigning to look upon me.
Details
10
15 124 She spun about to face me, her gloved fists clenched.
Details
10
18 118 My hands bled on the grating, the blood falling back in my upturned face, but I would not release the bars.
Details
10
19 26 "Thank you, Masters," said Ost, sniveling with relief, his face once more resuming that pinched, sly look I knew so well.
Details
10
19 27 But Kron looked down into the face of Ost, and Ost turned white.
Details
10
20 138 I felt unaccountably sad, and turned to face the mountains of the Sardar.
Details
10
21 49 Noting my interest in the girl, the man beside the irons went to her side and, taking her by the hair, threw back her face for my inspection.
Details
10
21 160 Then an expression of great sadness transformed his fat ball of a face.
Details
10
22 68 "You are indeed beautiful," I said, "—so beautiful that a thousand warriors might give their lives to see your face, so beautiful that a hundred cities might come to ruin on your behalf".
Details
10
22 86 After this incredible outburst she went to the side of the tent, and held one of the hangings with her fist, thrusting her face against it.
Details
10
22 118 She laughed, and her face burned with shame.
Details
10
22 223 She turned to face me, breathless.
Details
10
23 161 The grayish blue eyes slowly opened and gazed at my face for a long time, and gradually recognition transformed the features of the young guardsman.
Details
10
23 218 His face was transfigured with joy and he rushed forward and embraced me.
Details
10
24 159 The purplish patches that marked his yellowish face seemed less pronounced now than before.
Details
10
24 215 Thorn was silent, for how could he claim to know that the girl was not Lara, when presumably he had never looked upon the face of the true Tatrix? "I am she," cried the girl.
Details
10
25 20 "I have won," he said, the words spit out in a sort of whisper, a contorted grin on his face.
Details
10
25 74 My arms encircled its neck and my face was pressed into its glossy white fur.
Details
10
25 81 I could feel it splattered on the side of my face and in my hair.
Details
10
25 117 I suddenly knew the answer, that Thorn somehow had loved this cruel woman, that his warrior's heart had been turned to her though he had never looked upon her face, though she had never given him a smile or the touch of her hand.
Details
10
25 126 "Stay to face the justice of Tharna," I said.

Details
10
3 50 He had long whiskery sideburns which flared merrily from his muffinlike face.
Details
10
4 36 A frown crossed my face as I saw him take a pinch of tobacco from the bag and refill his pipe.
Details
10
4 123 Abruptly Parp stood up, his face white.
Details
10
5 37 I wiped my face with the towel.
Details
10
5 54 She knelt now but no longer on her heels and her face was brought forward and lifted to mine.
Details
10
5 71 "You may do with me what you please," said the girl, turning to face me.
Details
10
5 94 Her fingernails clawed across my face.
Details
10
5 138 And though her face was stained with the tears of her recent terror and her hair and robes were disarranged, she was beautiful, perhaps the more so because of her distress, which had at least shattered the icy aloofness with which she had originally regarded me.
Details
10
5 153 "Here in the Sardar," she said, turning to face me, trembling, "they took me into the tunnels and locked over my head a hideous metal globe with lights and wires and when they freed me they showed me a metal plate and told me that the patterns of my brain, of my oldest and most primitive memories, w...

5 184 Holding it before her as though to shield her face she approached the portal.
Details
10
5 196 She spun to face me.
Details
10
5 226 She slowly pulled the scarf from her throat and dropped it to the floor, and turned to face me.
Details
10
7 100 And so I uttered the war cry of Ko-ro-ba and leaped, sword ready, to face what might follow me.
Details
10
8 55 But she kept her face resolutely down.
Details
10
8 66 Vika trembled against me and in my joy with my fist still in her hair I bent my face to hers and kissed her full on those magnificent lips and she cried out helpless in my arms and wept but did not resist.
Details
10
8 84 I resheathed my sword and wiped my face with the back of my forearm.
Details
10
8 85 I could taste a little blood and knew that some of the fragments from the sensors had cut my face.
Details
10
8 103 Vika returned with the towel and began dabbing at my face.
Details
10
8 193 And then she seemed to straighten and turned to face me, once again the old and scornful Vika, challenging, hostile.
Details
10
9 88 Suddenly she rolled back to face me.
Details
10
9 164 I turned to face Vika once more, and I no longer saw the girl to whom I had been speaking but a woman of High Caste, from the bandit kingdom of Treve, insolent and imperious, though collared.
Details
10
9 210 I seized her by the hair and twisted her head to face me.
Details
10
9 216 Yet still did I not turn to face that portal.
Details
10
9 223 Her face was tear-stained; her voice a broken sob.
Details
10
9 229 I watched Vika and suddenly she seemed too to know and her head lifted and her eyes widened with horror and she crept to her knees, her hands before her face as though to shield herself and she shuddered and suddenly uttered a wild, long, terrible scream of abject fear.
Details

11 36 An analogue to listening to a translator would be to imagine words as pictures which, in the same type face and size, flash serially on a screen.

10
11 39 After a minute or two the Priest-Kings stopped circling one another and turned to face me.
Details
10
12 50 He spent perhaps an Ahn in this activity and then, exasperated, turned to face me.
Details
10
12 70 When they disengaged themselves, Sarm turned to face me.
Details
10
12 181 I thrust one aside with my left arm and crushed my fist into the face of the second.
Details
10
12 229 Nothing might have happened in the last few moments save that one was breathing heavily and the other's face was spattered with his own blood.
Details
10
14 5 Viewing me antiseptically through this shield was the face of a Priest-King.

15 6 One side of my face began to sweat.

17 136 The face of the rock was blackened and some stone had been chipped from its surface.

18 72 "Do you think," said Mul-Ba-Ta loftily, "that a Priest-King would have done so foolish a thing with a transportation disk?" "No," said Mul-Al-Ka, his face beaming.

10
18 98 Sarm stopped on the narrow iron railing circling the huge, glassy blue dome and straightened himself and turned to face me.
Details
10
20 92 The attendant who stood on the disk then, to her horror, pushed back the hood of her garment and the ornate, beautiful veils that masked her features, face-stripping her as casually as one might remove a scarf.
Details
10
22 178 I turned to go but then turned once again to face the Priest-King.
Details
10
24 20 I seized the Mul-Torch from between the stones where I had placed it and, with a great shout, thrust it towards the creature's face.
Details
10
25 2 They had now entered my skin and to my horror I felt a pull against my tissues and knew that the creature was now sucking through those foul tubes, but I was a man, a mammal, and not a Priest-King, and my body fluids were locked within the circulatory system of another form of being, and I thrust ag...

25 58 A shattering flash of energy seemed to explode in my face and burn through my body as my fingers touched the metal grille.
Details
10
25 64 I leaped again and this time managed to fasten my fingers in the grille and cried out in pain, turning my face away from the heat and fire that seemed to transform its surface erupting over my head with torturing, savage incandescence.

Details
10
25 124 I heard a groan from Vika and I turned to face her.
Details
10
25 131 Slowly she lifted her head and shook it, a small beautiful movement that threw her hair back from her face.
Details
10
25 178 My hand fixed itself in her hair and gently turned her face up to mine.
Details
10
26 19 She blushed with shame and hung her head, her hands before her face, and sank to her knees weeping softly, her body shaken with sobs.
Details
10
26 25 Vika was still crying a bit, but I took her hair and wiped her face and told her to stop her noise.
Details
10
26 59 She saw her reflection in the side of her plastic case and screamed, throwing her hands before her face.
Details
10
26 83 At these words Vika suddenly turned to face me, desperately, her back against the plastic side of the case, the palms of her hands against it.
Details
10
26 188 The color had drained from her face.
Details
10
26 219 She turned to face me there, on her hands and knees.
Details
10
26 226 With a cry she leaped to her feet and threw herself against the door, her face suddenly wild with tears, and pounded on it madly with her small fists.
Details
10
26 230 She stopped pounding on the plastic partition and stared out at me, her face stained with tears, her hands pressed against the plastic.
Details
10
26 291 I briefly turned to face her again and almost unconsciously I kissed the tips of my fingers and pressed them against the plastic.
Details
10
27 129 She turned her face away.
Details
10
27 132 Once again Sarm thrust his jaws at the face of the Mother and once again she moved her head away from him.
Details
10
27 259 A hideous splash of greenish fluid struck me in the face and I leaped aside, in the same movement shaking my head and wiping the back of my fist across my eyes.
Details
10
27 265 Shaking with pain, his entire frame quivering, he turned to face me, but he did not approach.
Details
10
28 67 She crept to her feet, holding her hands before her face, and I could see her trying to see and yet protect her eyes from the glare.
Details
10
29 83 Then it seemed to come under control and turned like a cornered rat to face me.
Details
10
30 95 She shook the veil from her face and threw back her head and laughed.
Details
10
31 213 Then to my amazement when the Beetle neared Sarm the Priest-King sank down on his supporting appendages, almost as if he were on his knees, and suddenly plunged his face and antennae into the midst of the waving mane hair of the Golden Beetle.
Details
10
31 232 The swollen, lethargic Beetle turned slowly to face me.
Details
10
32 51 I put my arm about her shoulders, holding her as she wept, her face lifted to the distant blue sky.
Details
10
32 91 Drifting dust obscured the complex and I drew the folds of Vika's robes more about her face that she might be better protected.
Details
10
32 216 Vika still lay unconscious in my arms and I had folded her robes about her in order to protect her face and eyes and throat from the rock dust below.
Details
10
32 226 He lifted aside the fold of Vika's robes which I had drawn about her face.
Details
10
32 235 He smiled and replaced the fold of the garment over her face.
Details
10
32 296 Outside I saw the two snow larls turn to face the portal.
Details
10
32 309 I set her down and Parp turned away, covering his face with his robe.
Details
10
32 314 She pulled aside the folds of his robe and I saw her touch his face which seemed filled with tears.
Details
10
34 3 Once again I saw that strong, lined face, that square jaw, that wild, flowing mane of fiery hair so much like my own, that spare, ready frame, those gray eyes, now rimmed with tears.
Details
10
34 10 I swept him off his feet and spun him around and the robes flew from his head and Torm of the Caste of Scribes cried aloud in joy and that sandy hair wheeled in the wind and tears ran sideways down his face and he never lost hold of the scroll although he nearly batted the Older Tarl with it in one ...
Details
10
34 13 But in that instant my joy was gone, for my father's face became grave.
Details
10
34 154 Somewhere even now she might be facing danger that she would not face in Ko-ro-ba and there might be none to protect her.

2 64 I could not see his face because of the net of chain that hung before it.

2 159 He drew the scarf down, from about his face, and threw back, over his helmet, a mask of dependent chains, and laughed.
Details
10
2 163 He pulled aside the wind scarf with one hand, and his face, though black, bore the same marks as the others.
Details
10
2 164 Now the rider in front of me lifted the colored chains from his helmet, that I might see his face.
Details
10
2 165 It was a white face, but heavy, greased; the epicanthic fold of his eyes bespoke a mixed origin.
Details
10
2 167 On the face of each there were, almost like corded chevrons, brightly colored scars.
Details
10
2 174 The effect of the scars, ugly, startling, terrible, perhaps in part calculated to terrify enemies, had even prompted me, for a wild moment, to conjecture that what I faced on the Plains of Turia were not men, but perhaps aliens of some sort, brought to Gor long ago from remote worlds to serve some n...
Details
10
2 176 It is always the highest scar on the face.
Details
10
3 3 So gambling all on the respect of the Wagon Peoples for the courage of men, I made no move to defend myself but, heart pounding, blood racing, yet no sign visible of agitation on my face, without a quiver of a muscle or tendon betraying me, I stood calmly erect.
Details
10
3 4 On my face there was only disdain.
Details
10
3 36 The Tuchuk's face tightened.
Details
10
3 65 There was wonder on his face.
Details
10
3 92 Anger crossed his face.
Details
10
3 98 The face of the Paravaci, rich with its terrible furrowed scars, contorted with rage.
Details
10
3 111 Then, furiously, the scars wild in his face, he sprang up in the stirrups and lifted both hands to the sky.
Details
10
4 66 I studied his heavy face, the fierce scarring that somehow ennobled it, the dark eyes with the epicanthic fold.
Details
10
4 75 He stared at me, disbelievingly, and then, suddenly, he threw back his head and laughed until tears streamed down his face.
Details
10
4 77 Then he straightened up and wiped his face with the back of his hand.
Details
10
5 110 Kamchak laughed, the colored scars wrinkling on his broad face.
Details
10
6 33 She lifted her head and seeing the wild, fearsome scarred face that stared into hers, she suddenly screamed hysterically, and tried to jerk and tear herself away, but the lance held her in place.
Details
10
6 163 Dazed, exhausted, covered with sweat, dust on her face and legs, wine on her body, Elizabeth Cardwell, her wrists thonged behind her and her throat bound to a lance, stood captive before Kamchak of the Tuchuks.
Details
10
7 92 With him had been a tall, strange man, broad of shoulder with large hands, a grayish face, eyes almost like glass.
Details
10
7 103 She turned to face him, eyes flashing.
Details
10
7 129 She remembered then only turning and starting for the door, and a sudden, peculiar odor, penetrating, that seemed to close about her face and head.
Details
10
7 183 Kamchak grinned at Kutaituchik, the scarring on his face wrinkling with pleasure.
Details
10
7 194 A small smile touched the broad face of Kutaituchik.
Details
10
7 199 The scarred face wrinkled again and Kamchak rocked back and slapped his knees.
Details
10
7 253 Perhaps in that moment Elizabeth Cardwell recalled the strange man, so fearsome, gray of face with eyes like glass, who had so examined her on Earth, before whom she had stood as though on a block, unknowingly being examined for her fitness to bear the message collar of Turia.
Details
10
7 264 "La Kajira," she said, putting her head down, then covering her face with her manacled hands, weeping.
Details
10
8 61 Her face was vital and flushed with excitement.
Details
10
8 449 Kamchak laughed, too, so hard tears ran down the scarred furrows of his face.
Details
10
8 490 Hardly slackening speed I swept past the girl, turned the kaiila to face her, and again kicked it into a full gallop.
Details
10
8 491 I briefly saw a look of utter astonishment on her beautiful face.
Details
10
8 508 He stood up, a smile on his face.
Details
10
9 57 Across his face there were two long scars, perhaps from their delicacy the scars of quiva wounds.
Details
10
9 164 Her face could not be seen, for it was veiled, a white silken veil trimmed with gold, nor even her hair, for it was hidden in the folds of the free woman's Robes of Concealment, in her case, of course, done in the colors of the Merchants.
Details
10
9 300 "Did you truly think," asked Aphris of Turia arrogantly, "that a Tuchuk would be permitted to look upon the face of a free woman of Turia?" Kamchak's fists were clenched on the table, for no Tuchuk likes to be fooled.
Details
10
9 432 "Have you no shame?" The girl attempted to rearrange the folds of the veil, but could only hold it before her face, for Kamchak had ripped away the pins by which it was customarily fastened.
Details
10
9 434 He, a Tuchuk, had looked upon her face.
Details
10
9 435 I was pleased, though I would not have admitted it, at Kamchak's boldness, for it was a face for which a man might risk much, even death in the torture dungeons of Turia, utterly beautiful though now, of course, transformed with rage, far more beautiful than had been that of the most beautiful of th...
Details
10
10 86 Then suddenly her eyes clouded and her face was transformed with distress.
Details
10
10 87 Her hands moved to her face, covering her mouth.
Details
10
10 114 Elizabeth's face suddenly seemed terrified.
Details
10
10 227 Elizabeth Cardwell screamed, throwing her hands before her face.
Details
10
10 231 She was standing facing the charging tharlarion, as though rooted to the earth, her hands before her face.
Details
10
10 324 She spun to face him, her fists clenched.
Details
10
10 354 This aspect of the games was extremely humiliating for the Turian girls, but they understood its necessity; few men, especially barbarian warriors, care to fight for a woman on whose face they have not even looked.
Details
10
10 357 "Can you not remember, Sleen," asked the girl, "the face of Aphris of Turia?" "My memory is vague," said Kamchak.
Details
10
10 363 "It's vague," muttered Kamchak, wavering, "I had in mind I think the face of a slave—there was, as I recall, a collar—" "You tharlarion," she said.
Details
10
10 369 I suddenly glimpsed the face of Aphris of Turia contort with rage and she tried to free herself.
Details
10
10 404 I thought that a humane arrangement—that two men must understand who it is they face before entering the circle of sand.
Details
10
10 560 His sword was in front of his face, apparently blocking his vision.
Details
10
11 9 Then the girl, with vehemence, spat in the face of the lovely Aphris.
Details
10
11 23 Saphrar's round, pinkish face was beaming with pleasure, though I would have thought this day a tragic one for him.
Details
10
11 58 His little round pinkish face shone.
Details
10
11 168 Aphris turned to face him, fists clenched.
Details
10
11 303 Aphris turned again to face Kamchak.
Details
10
12 284 I turned to face Elizabeth.
Details
10
12 399 The girl's face was fixed in the dancer's stylized moan of terror, but she was beautiful.
Details
10
14 84 He turned to face me.
Details
10
16 205 "A man met me," said Saphrar, "a tall man—rather dreadful actually—with a face as gray as stone and eyes like glass".
Details
10
16 314 The matter of the message collar had been a clever way of attempting to gain that end but, because of the shrewdness of Tuchuks, who seldom take anything at its face value, it had failed; they had then attempted to bring me down among the wagons with a Paravaci quiva, but that, too, had failed; I gr...
Details
10
17 46 The expression on his face was much the same as that I had seen at the banquet, when he had prepared to eat the small, quivering thing impaled on the colored stick.
Details
10
18 98 I spun to face the Paravaci but he, weaponless, with a curse, turned and fled from the room.
Details
10
19 108 The girl's head flew up and she spun to face him, pulling to free herself.
Details
10
19 113 He permitted her to turn and face him again.
Details
10
19 159 She spun to face him again, tears of rage in her eyes.
Details
10
20 132 Harold turned to face me.
Details
10
21 8 Kamchak had not spoken but sat on his kaiila, his face dark with resolve.
Details
10
21 34 "Is it enough?" He looked at me, but I could read no expression on his face.
Details
10
21 145 She laughed and with an easy motion dropped the veil from her face and shook her head, freeing her hair.
Details
10
21 210 Indeed, I respected his wisdom—withdrawing in the face of a situation in which there was nothing to be gained and, considering the vulnerability of the wagons and bosk to tarnsmen, much to be lost.
Details
10
21 359 The metal net that depended from his helmet had been thrown back and his eyes and face were fearful to behold.
Details
10
21 361 He turned his kaiila to face the city and it reared and he lifted his shield on his left arm and his lance in his right fist.
Details
10
23 134 Harold and I, and those of our men that remained, stood with the wagons, watching the nearing waves of warriors, observing the moment when the chain face guards of the Paravaci helmets were thrown forward, the moment when the lances, like that of a single man, were leveled.
Details
10
23 176 "That is true," granted Hakimba, the yellow and red scars wrinkling into a grin on his lean, black face.
Details
10
24 177 Harold was sitting there calmly on the back of his kaiila, a reproachful look on his face.
Details
10
25 2 Within, a girl, across the wagon, beyond the tiny fire bowl in the center of its floor, standing on the thick rug, near a hanging tharlarion-oil lamp, turned suddenly to face me.
Details
10
25 12 She held her hand before her face.
Details
10
25 19 "Go!" Still she would not remove her hand from before her face.
Details
10
25 32 She dropped her hand from before her face and stood facing the back of the wagon.
Details
10
25 40 "Don't look at me," she cried, bending down, holding her face from the light, then covering it with her hands.
Details
10
25 52 I could hear the chain move as she turned to face me.
Details
10
25 60 Over the hand that shielded the lower part of her face I could see her eyes, and they seemed filled with fear.
Details
10
25 74 She did not speak but stood looking at me, in the yellow sheet, with one hand covering her face.
Details
10
25 83 I gently took her braceleted wrists in my hands and removed them from her face.
Details
10
25 88 I held her lovely head with its soft dark hair in my hands, gazing on her face, her forehead, her dark, soft eyes, with tears, the marvelous, trembling mouth, and set in her fine nose, delicate and lovely, the tiny golden ring.
Details
10
25 97 She lifted her face, stained with tears, to mine.
Details
10
25 453 My face burned.
Details
10
25 541 I could feel her breath on my face.
Details
10
25 689 She looked up at me, a sly smile on her face.
Details
10
26 81 He did not turn to face me, but continued to stare at the compound.
Details
10
26 91 Kamchak's face was impassive.
Details
10
26 158 I heard Harold cry out with delight at the sight of the fellow, and the man turned to face us, a quiva in his hand.
Details
10
26 196 The man turned angrily to face him, but he did not advance, nor hurl his quiva.
Details
10
26 286 I saw the contorted, now-orange, twisted, agonized face.
Details
10
26 313 He knelt down near the fragments, disgust on his face, fingering the stiff, leathery ruptured egg, some of the golden pieces broken from it.
Details
10
26 320 "Look," said Harold, thrusting his hand under my face.
Details
10
26 540 Then I asked, "By the way, as a matter of fact, what did you pay for her?" Kamchak's face was black with rage.
Details
10
26 549 Then a wry glint of amusement sparkled in the Tuchuk's eyes and the furrowed face wrinkled into a sheepish grin.
Details
10
26 552 Kamchak glared at Harold, and then at me, and then he looked down, scratching his ear; then he looked at us again, and all three of us suddenly burst together into laughter, and tears even streamed down Kamchak's face, running here and there amongst the scarred furrows on his cheeks.
Details
10
27 153 It was hard to read his face.
Details
10
27 197 Kamchak's face was inscrutable.
Details
10
28 48 Now, diagonally, like a scarlet chevron coursing the flight of the cheek bones, there blazed on the face of Harold the Tuchuk the Courage Scar.

2 67 Kuurus drank, watching them, his face showing no emotion.

2 125 He too looked into the eyes of Kuurus, who sat in the darkness, the wall behind him, cross-legged, looking at him, no emotion on his face.

10
2 138 All eyes turned to face a paunchy man, in a robe of blue and yellow silk.
Details
10
2 219 The heavy man, sitting cross-legged, opposite the Assassin, began to sweat, fiddled with the damp blue and yellow silk covering his knee, and then with a nervous hand lifted a shaking bowl of paga to his lips, spilling some down the side of his face.

3 82 His face was pale and lined, and his hair was white.

3 122 The face of the Player seemed placid.

3 157 The Player lifted his sightless eyes toward my face.

3 165 Every nerve in that old face seemed strained, as though trying to understand what might lie there beyond him in the darkness that was his world, save for the memory of the movement of pieces on a checkered board.

10
3 217 The Player put out his hand and touched the Vintner's face, remembering it.

3 231 He was a short man, with close-cropped brown hair, a squarish face.

4 2 Cernus of Ar, of the House of Cernus, studied me, his large face impassive, his eyes revealing nothing, like gray stones.

10
4 119 I turned to face him.
Details
10
4 153 She did so, and I gathered it was the first time she had actually looked on the face of the master of the House of Cernus.

10
4 154 Her face was pale.

11 213 Flaminius gestured to the guard and he, with his club, suddenly struck the bars in front of Phyllis Robertson's face and she screamed and darted back in the cage, where she crouched away from the bars, tears in her eyes.
Details
10
11 303 Then he turned again to Virginia, putting his face close to the bars, speaking as though confidentially.

10
11 343 Then suddenly she cried out and broke free and knelt in the back of the kennel, her face in her hands, weeping.
