About
Step into a savage, exotic world of honor, romance, and non-stop adventure on a dying planet Mars—known by its inhabitants as Barsoom. This seminal 11-book science fantasy series follows John Carter, a Virginian Civil War veteran mysteriously transported to Mars, where low gravity makes him a legendary warrior. As he battles four-armed green giants, navigates warring Red Martian city-states, and flies through thin atmosphere, Carter becomes the champion of the beautiful Princess Dejah Thoris. Across decades of pulp adventures, Carter rises to become the Warlord of Mars, battling mad scientists, evil priests, and ferocious beasts to save his adopted home. Perfect for fans of epic, swashbuckling interplanetary romance and classic, high-stakes exploration.
