In it, Burroughs focuses, as he did in the previous novel, not on John Carter, but on his descendants. The focus of the novel is on his daughter, Tara of Helium, and her paramour, Gahan of Gathol. Other than that, the novel follows in the same basic pattern as the earlier novels of this series with a tale of romance and chivalry set not among the knights and damsels of the middle ages, but on the dying planet of Mars. It is a terrific adventure book and a fun story to read.Tara, at least in the beginning of the book, is a haughty princess with many suitors at the palace ball, sort of a Marie Antoinette or Scarlet O’Hara type of character with flowing gowns and romantic intrigue. The tale takes Tara out of her comfortable palace life to adventures in forgotten valleys and unknown lands where she encounters ancient people who know nothing of modern-day Martian civilization. First, her adventures take her to the Bantoomian Valley, where Burroughs has invented a unique people, whose heads and bodies are independent with the heads being intelligent and advanced and able to crawl about on little legs like spiders and the headless bodies are no better than the most brutish of animals. Burroughs invented such creatures nearly one hundred years ago and it is amazing how many books and creatures and inventions followed in his wake. What an imagination!The second ancient civilization Tara and Gahan encounter is the ancient city of Manator, where the game of Jetan (which is similar in many respects to the Earthly game of chess) is played in an arena on a board with living and armed human pieces. When one piece enters another’s space, they fight to the death, making this an exciting and unusual game. There are many other interesting aspects to the ancient city, but the game of Jetan is, by far, the most intriguing and inventive.Once again, as in the first four novels in this amazing series, Burroughs has invented a world in many ways like our own, but in many ways unlike it, a world peopled by unique creatures and ancient civilizations and, often, unexplored. It is a vast land, even though the planet is smaller, as the oceans have dried up and, therefore, there is more land. On this unique landscape, Burroughs plays out his stories of derring-do and chivalry as there is always a beautiful princess to rescue and a great and mighty swordsman to rescue her, often causing entire nations to rise in revolt against their despotic rulers.Many writers followed in Burroughs’ wake, but none ever wrote tales so well.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.Headcrabs!By John LawsonApparently, John Carter and Dejah Thoris have been getting busy. Not only do they have a son, Carthoris, but now they have a daughter, Tara. Just as hot as mom, just as willful as dad, but lacking the common sense of either. Tara is spirited far away from home where she meet sstrange and dangerous people and overthrows them. Headcrabs ensue.Wait, wasn't this the plot of the previous book Yeah, but this time, Tara is the rescuee rather than rescuer. Because she has boobs, of course.Both Cathoris and Tara are half human, but while the son is nearly the Superman that John Carter is, poor Tara is weak and helpless, armed solely with a defiant streak and a hidden dagger that she remembers she carries only when the author deems it convenient.The headcrabs were cool, though.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.Old fashioned sword fantasy. If you like them it's great. If you don't like them, don't waste your money.By ChrisbuyerIt's an old fashioned Sword fantasy in that it takes place on a Mars (Barsoom) that never existed and the heros are super good guys and gals and the bad guys are oh so evil. It does have one of my very favorite sword fight scenes in it and would make a great movie if they'd follow the book unlike the hash they made of ERB's John Carter of Mars, and the atrocity they made of Heinlein's "Starship Troopers" and so many other really great books that they've butchered in the process of making a movie.See all 159 customer reviews...
