| Summary | "The Green Odyssey" by Philip José Farmer is a science fiction novel written in the late 20th century. The book centers around Alan Green, a space traveler who finds himself stranded on a dangerous and primitive planet after a crash landing. As he navigates the challenges of this backward society, he grapples with his responsibilities as a kitchen foreman for the Duke of Tropat while dreaming of escape back to his home on Earth. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Alan Green, who has been a slave on a violent planet for two years after his spaceship crash. He becomes embroiled in the whims of the Duchess Zuni and the ominous cruelty of the Duke, while also contending with the fierce jealousy of the Duchess's guard dog, Alzo. Despite his desire for peace and a longing for his wife Amra and their children, Green's aspirations change when he learns about two other Earthmen imprisoned in a nearby city. Faced with peril at every turn, including dealing with superstitious locals and his own complicated relationships in a society driven by violence and power struggles, Green concocts a daring plan for escape, setting the stage for a gripping adventure.
