Book excerpt: A PRINCESS OF MARS:Burroughs Mars Series is second only to his Tarzan novels in popularity, with ten Mars novels published in his lifetime. "A Princess of Mars" was not only his first other-world story, but was the first publication of any Edgar Rice Burroughs stories. In 1911, under the name Norman Bean (used to protect his business reputation since Burroughs himself did not think highly of pulp fiction at the time), the first part of this novel appeared in All-Story Magazine with the title "Under The Moon of Mars." It wasn't until 1917, after three more Barsoom installments, Tarzan novels, and popularity, that "A Princess of Mars" reached book form.Edgar Rice Burroughs started writing his tales because he felt that if others could make money writing "rot," so could he. Instead, he turned out masterpieces of early fiction, and became one of the premier story-tellers.THE WARLORD OF MARS:"With a sigh I turned the prow of my craft down stream, and with mighty strokes hastened with reckless speed through the dark and tortuous channel until once again I came to the chamber into which flowed the three branches of the river.Two unexplored channels still remained from which to choose; nor was there any means by which I could judge which was the more likely to lead me to the plotters.Never in my life, that I can recall, have I suffered such an agony of indecision. So much depended upon a correct choice; so much depended upon haste.The hours that I had already lost might seal the fate of the incomparable Dejah Thoris were she not already dead-to sacrifice other hours, and maybe days in a fruitless exploration of another blind lead would unquestionably prove fatal. "Barsoom: The Warlord of Mars is the second adventure of John Carter, hero of Burroughs famous Mars series. In this book Carter must face terrible peril for the slightest chance that he may find his beloved Dejah Thoris still alive. The odds are slim and the dangers great - conditions John Carter is well used to!THE GODS OF MARS:"With the fear that we would escape them, the creatures redoubled their efforts to pull me down, and though the ground about me was piled high with their dead and dying comrades, they succeeded at last in overwhelming me, and I went down beneath them for the second time that day, and once again felt those awful sucking lips against my flesh."Barsoom: The Gods of Mars is the third exciting adventure of John Carter, Earthman on Mars. Edgar Rice Burroughs, creator of Tarzan, weaves incredible otherworldly tales from the Red Planet; his stories have thrilled readers for a century!THUVIA, MAID OF MARS:"But I must go to her," insisted Carthoris. "You say that there are no women in Lothar. Then she must be among men, and if this be so I intend to be near where I may defend her if the need arises.""Tario will have his way," insisted Jav. "He sent you away and you may not return until he sends for you.""Then I shall go without waiting to be sent for.""Do not forget the bowmen," cautioned Jav."I do not forget them," replied Carthoris, but he did not tell Jav that he remembered something else that the Lotharian had let drop-something that was but a conjecture, possibly, and yet one well worth pinning a forlorn hope to, should necessity arise.Carthoris started to leave the room. Jav stepped before him, barring his way."I have learned to like you, red man," he said; "but do not forget that Tario is still my jeddak, and that Tario has commanded that you remain here."Carthoris was about to reply, when there came faintly to the ears of both a woman's cry for help.With a sweep of his arm the Prince of Helium brushed the Lotharian aside, and with drawn sword sprang into the corridor without.In this, the fourth of Burrough's Mars novels, it is the son of John Carter, Cathoris, who faces danger in the hopes of winning the freedom (and perhaps the heart) of the desperate maiden of Mars - Thuvia.
Book Synopsis The Barsoom Project by : Larry Niven
Download or read book The Barsoom Project written by Larry Niven and published by Tor Books. This book was released on 2010-11-23 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Barsoom Project is the direct sequel to 1981's Dream Park. Eviane's first visit to the-state-of-art amusement arena Dream Park ended in disaster: the special effects had seemed more real than life... until the holograms she was shooting with live ammunition turned out to be solid flesh and blood... and very, very dead. Haunted by the past, rebounding from a lengthy spell in a mental hospital, she has returned to Dream Park to exorcise a nightmare that has become reality. But in Dream Park, nothing is what it seems. The Inuit mythology controlling the images is part of a "Fat Ripper Special" designed to implant new behavioral memes. The players are struggling against the game master, one another, and their own demons. And there is a killer who wants to ensure Eviane never regains her memory...noo matter what it costs. Blending together hard science fiction with topical RPG-like fantasy games, The Barsoom Project is SF at the cutting edge and a classic creation from two of the genre's most beloved writers. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
Book Synopsis The Barsoom Expedition by : Charles Howerton
Download or read book The Barsoom Expedition written by Charles Howerton and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-05 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book Launching a scientific research mission to Mars is no easy task, but in The Barsoom Expedition, it is made nearly impossible by a shady group of powerful people who want to win the race to Mars and lay claim to it and all its resources. Bribes, threats, whipping up a phony religious outcry, sabotage, and even more drastic actions are taken to prevent Barsoom Explorer from staffing her crew. Captain Ian McMichael and his friend and former crewmate, Alexi Gargorin, a nuclear engineer, are tapped to lead a brilliant group of people, who were gathered and trained in secret to prevent outside interference or influence. After the Explorer launches perfectly with its unique propulsion system, it suffers one problem after another, from a mischievous ferret on the loose to booby traps set by saboteurs currently on board. Gifted pilots and sisters, Miriam Steinmetz and Rachael Purlman prove indispensable as each crisis arises, as do the other members of the crew—those not attempting to destroy the mission, that is. Outer space must be navigated gingerly and that precariousness comes alive in vivid detail in this epic story of humanity working toward a goal in an unforgiving environment and with bad guys breathing down their neck. About the Author Charles Howerton has a PhD in computer science and, before retiring, spent the last fifteen years of his career teaching computer science and software engineering at the college level. He was first introduced to computers in June 1957 three days after he graduated from high school. His hobby, if you can call it that, is writing imaginative fiction. More stories, one of which is a sequel to The Barsoom Expedition are in the works. His family is made up of two sons, a daughter, stepdaughter, five grandchildren, and twin great-grandsons.

Book Synopsis The Voice of El-Lil by : Robert E. Howard
Download or read book The Voice of El-Lil written by Robert E. Howard and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by Robert E. Howard was originally published in 1930 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Voice of El-Lil' is one of Howard's short stories in the fantasy genre and a must read for fans of the Author. Robert Ervin Howard was born in Peaster, Texas in 1906. During his youth, his family moved between a variety of Texan boomtowns, and Howard - a bookish and somewhat introverted child - was steeped in the violent myths and legends of the Old South. At fifteen Howard began to read the pulp magazines of the day, and to write more seriously. The December 1922 issue of his high school newspaper featured two of his stories, 'Golden Hope Christmas' and 'West is West'. In 1924 he sold his first piece - a short caveman tale titled 'Spear and Fang' - for $16 to the not-yet-famous Weird Tales magazine. Howard's most famous character, Conan the Cimmerian, was a barbarian-turned-King during the Hyborian Age, a mythical period of some 12,000 years ago. Conan featured in seventeen Weird Tales stories between 1933 and 1936 which is why Howard is now regarded as having spawned the 'sword and sorcery' genre. The Conan stories have since been adapted many times, most famously in the series of films starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
