Home / A Princess of Mars
What can only be described as a romantic, space-fantasy adventure, Edgar Rice Burroughs creates a world unlike any other as he recounts the story of John Carter, a confederate veteran from the Civil War. While hiding from a tribe of Apaches after a search for gold, Carter finds himself mysteriously transported to the planet Mars, or as the inhabitants know it, Barsoom. Overcome with sudden strength, agility, and a propensity for powerful authority, Carter rises to the top while catching himself compromised under the conflicts of the many alien tribes. Just as it inspired scientists of the early 20th-century, A Princess of Mars will excite science fiction lovers as they begin their journey at the start of this wondrous series.
