Though he is best known as the creator of Tarzan, Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) began his writing career in 1911 with a tale called "Dejah Thoris, Martian Princess." Thus his 11-book Barsoom... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I have read all of the books in the Barsoom or Mars series, many times. I read a great deal and there are very few books I would read even twice, let alone 6 or 8 times. I have given them to others of all ages, male and female, and I have never yet heard someone say they didn't love these books! I highly recommend them to anyone! They contain no sexual situations or cursing so they are suitable for children and teens but the stories are imaginative and well written so that even adults will find the books hard to put down. There are 11 books in the Mars series and about 5 books in a Venus series that are equally fun to read. The first book in the Mars series is called A Princess of Mars. Start there and let the journey begin!
