Publisher's summary

Explore the beginnings of the adventurous John Carter in A Princess of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs.

John Carter is a veteran looking to make his way in the world after the Civil War. After finding gold in Arizona, he is chased into hiding in a cave that turns out to house a portal to Mars. He quickly discovers that Mars is inhabited by many intelligent lifeforms who have used advanced science to create a welcoming natural environment on the red planet. John is soon drawn into a tribe of nomadic Martians and quickly rises in their ranks due to his otherworldly strength.

Eventually, John’s group gets into a dispute with a rival tribe. John Carter finds himself caught between the two tribes and in the midst of a love affair with a Martian princess. The novel follows John Carter as he searches for his place among these beings, embroiled in political intrigue and high-stakes adventures.

With its imaginative setting and thrilling plot, A Princess of Mars is a stellar example of 1900s pulp science-fiction writing. This story has been loved for decades since its initial publication and continues to inspire generations of science-fiction storytellers, including the likes of James Cameron and George Lucas.
