Publisher's Summary
This Annotated Omnibus Edition contains the first three novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Martian tales (the Barsoom series).
The first of these novels, A Princess of Mars, was Burroughs' first book, and he wrote the next two novels in quick succession. Together they tell the story of John Carter of Mars - how he came to Mars, met the love of his life, and quickly found himself occupied full-time defending her and saving his adopted planet from interplanetary evildoers.
This trilogy opened the doors of popular science fiction to an entire nation and world. It launched the original pulp science fiction storyworld and series, often imitated but never duplicated, and has inspired four generations of young sci-fi and fantasy writers, artists, moviemakers and videogame designers.
And, of course, it's a ripping great story.
This Pulp-Lit Press Annotated Omnibus Edition takes those three novels together as a coherent story. Each is gracefully and unobtrusively annotated, to help the modern reader put it in the proper literary and historical context for maximum reading enjoyment. All annotations are presented together in a single chapter, easily skipped by readers who prefer to get on with the story.

Great Story.
Great Story. Absolutely awful narration. Someone needs to tell the guy to slow down! It was like he was racing to spill it all out at once. I couldn't even do books 2 and 3 because I found it so hard. I'll definitely be putting a claim in for a return because it was so unenjoyable.

Fond memories
I read a princess of mars when I was 13 and escaped into a world of ‘boys own’ heroes. Still enjoyed the 3 first stories 50 years on.

interesting and fun trilogy
the only downside to this audiobook is the pathetic chapters of modern day uncalled for social justice vomit preceding and following each book, quite blatantly put in place to decide for you your opinions on the work you paid for. Strongly advise skipping said chapters and deciding for yourself!
