not quite on level with the Carter of Mars series, but this one has its' own merits and well worth the read for any Burroughs fan.

Cover by Frank Frazetta! The whole Venus series is an epic thrill ride. As fantastic as we know life on Venus is today, the people and places Carson encounters seem plausible and logical. It is interesting to note that Burroughs lampoons Earth's own Nazis with Carson's dim-witted fascist foes, the Zanis. This was first published in 1937, when the Reich was firmly in power in Germany but before the invasions, before the world feared them. Where was Carson when we needed him?

Here is a parallel to his Mars series. Carson, an Earthling lost on Amtor (Venus), has rescued a princess whom he must save time and time and again. Luckily he has built a flying ship that is as silent as Wonder Woman's, although not invisible. Although everyone is armed with r-ray and T-ray weapons of destruction, the mighty sword is yet the weapon of choice for hero and villain alike.If you have read any of the Mars books, this has little more to offer.
