#2 IN THE CLASSIC SF SERIES In The Gods of Mars, Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter returns to the Red planet in search of Dejah Thoris, the Martian princess he loves but has been separated from by a cruel twist of fate. But, he has arrived in the deadliest spot on Mars, the Valley of Death, from which no one has ever returned in all the long history of the red planet. Forty-three million miles from earth, Carter experiences a succession of weirdest and most astounding adventures ever imagined. First, he must battle the unkillable plant men, blood-thirsty strange creatures evolved from vegetable matter. Then he must penetrate the secrets of the mysterious, all-powerful Gods of Mars, and defy the immortal Issus, Goddess of Death. Afterward, he must battle his way free from captivity by the fearsome Black Pirates of Barsoom, and past the deadly manapes of the north. And even if he survives to find his beloved Dejah Thoris, John Carter will be executed immediately any where he is found on the red planet for blasphemy and sacrilege against the Gods! [via]
