Starting in December 1966 with \u003ci\u003eTarnsman of Gor\u003c\/i\u003e, the series was put on hold after its twenty-fifth installment, \u003ci\u003eMagicians of Gor\u003c\/i\u003e, in 1988, when DAW refused to publish its successor, \u003ci\u003eWitness of Gor\u003c\/i\u003e. After several unsuccessful attempts to find a trade publishing outlet, the series was brought back into print in 2001. Norman has also produced a separate science fiction series, the Telnarian Histories, plus two other fiction works (\u003ci\u003eGhost Dance\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eTime Slave\u003c\/i\u003e), a nonfiction paperback (\u003ci\u003eImaginative Sex\u003c\/i\u003e), and a collection of thirty short stories, entitled \u003ci\u003eNorman Invasions\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eThe Totems of Abydos\u003c\/i\u003e was published in spring 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll of Norman's work is available both in print and as ebooks.
