A Fighting Man of Mars (Royal Collector's Edition) (Case Laminate Hardcover with Jacket) - Hardcover

by Edgar Rice Burroughs (Author)

A Fighting Man of Mars follows Tan Hadron of Hastor as he embarks on a quest across Mars to rescue his beloved Sanoma Tora. Along the way, he encounters formidable creatures, a mad scientist, and forms alliances with strong characters like Tavia, a witty and competent escaped slave. The narrative, reminiscent of The Arabian Nights, unfolds with Tan overcoming various challenges and discovering true alliances and loyalties. This thrilling adventure not only tests Tan's bravery but also his understanding of what loyalty and love truly mean.

A Fighting Man of Mars is Edgar Rice Burroughs' seventh book in the Barsoom series. This novel connects to Burroughs' Pellucidar series with the use of the Gridley Wave, a fictional communications technology, creating a link between both universes. The book's impact extended beyond literature into pop culture, influencing George Lucas in the early conceptual phase of what would become the Star Wars saga.

This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
