Description
On a fateful day in Arizona, a man from the American Civil War finds himself transported to a distant world. In this secret cave, he is discovered by the inhabitants, who refer to their planet as Barsoom. The gravity of this new world grants him extraordinary strength and agility.
He joins a nomadic tribe of Martians, the Tharks, and rises through their ranks, earning the respect and friendship of one of their chiefs. However, the Tharks soon capture a princess, Dejah Thoris, and he must rescue her, becoming embroiled in a conflict that spans Martian society. As he navigates this complex world, he finds himself torn between his loyalty to his own world and his growing feelings for the princess.
This collection of three novels, including the original 1912 serial, brings together the stories of John Carter's adventures on Mars, as he struggles to find his place in a world so different from his own.
