A princess of Mars

What if a battle-hardened soldier of Earth awoke on Mars-and became the key to a dying world's survival?

After a mysterious encounter in an Arizona cave, Confederate veteran John Carter finds himself transported to Barsoom, the strange and perilous planet we know as Mars. Gifted with extraordinary strength in the lower gravity, Carter is captured by the towering green Martians, earns the loyalty of the fierce Tars Tarkas and the devoted beast Woola, and soon becomes entangled in the fate of Dejah Thoris, the incomparable Princess of Helium. Across dead sea bottoms, ruined cities, aerial battles, savage duels, and desperate escapes, Carter must fight not only for honor and survival, but for love and the future of an entire planet.
