Spectru, I strongly suspect that E. R. Burroughs' books are best read when you're young and impressionable. At least, when I first read his Barsoom books when I was around 12-14, they left a strong impression. I reread the series last year and found them quick, fun reads. Of course they are pulp fiction to begin with. But then again I liked the movie (John Carter), too.


I think you are right Mervi2012. I enjoyed A Princess of Mars well enough, but I doubt that I will continue the series. I haven't seen the John Carter movie, but I know it was not particularly successful, as movies go.
