| 3. Pellucidar |
|
By: Edgar Rice Burroughs
Publisher: Amereon Ltd
1990-04
This review is for the audio book version of this novel that was read by Patrick Lawlor. I had listened to the first book in this series, At the Earth's Core (MP3 CD) (Pellucidar), with my 11-year old son and we liked it and decided to follow up with this book, which is the direct sequel. This had the same reader and he used the same characterizations as in the first book, which made for great continuity... more

A hero who thinks with his muscles, is a little scared of women, and exemplifies valor without reflection. But in a good way.
John Carter is Civil War (U.S. not English) veteran who has struck out for the West to find his fortune. He's snatched from death at the hands of some very irate locals in a mysterious fashion, and finds himself on Mars facing four armed green monsters (who turn... more

| 5. Tarzan of the Apes |
|
By: Edgar Rice Burroughs
Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks
1995-03
I first encountered Edgar Rice Burroughs back in the mid-1970s, during the last period of his widespread popularity in the USA; at that time nearly all of the books in his most popular series - Tarzan, John Carter, Carson of Venus, Pellucidar - were readily available at most chain bookstores in mass-market paperbacks. I collected a good many of them, and though John Carter was, and is always my favorite... more

| 7. Swords of Mars |
|
By: Edgar Rice Burroughs
Publisher: Del Rey
July 12, 1979
Swords of Mars is one of my favorites of the Martian Tales. Although late in the series, it has all the elements that made Burroughs a classic in the field:
1.
It is a John Carter novel. He is still the best character in the series.
2.
It does not suffer from the same artifacts of serialization that you see in some of the other Mars books. The chapters flow together... more

| 8. A Princess of Mars (Dover Value Editions) |
|
By: Edgar Rice Burroughs
Publisher: Dover Publications
July 26, 2005
Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) was a prodigy of imagination. He started his writer career quite late; his first work was published in 1912. From that point on a ceaseless flow of imaginary worlds & heroes poured from his pen: John Carter of Mars, Carson Napier of Venus, David Innes and Abner Perry on Pellucidar at Earth's center and the most famous of them all Tarzan of the Apes.
As many... more

| 10. Llana of Gathol | 
|
By: Edgar Rice Burroughs
Publisher: Nel
1987
"Llana of Gathol" is an excellent volume in the Barsoom series of Edgar Rice Burroughs, and the last published during ERB's lifetime. The case could be made that this is not merely the last novel (or collection of novellaes as some would have it), but the literary apex of the John Carter of Mars series. Although it is divided into four main sections, and the chapters bear the earmarks of serialization... more
