The Warlord of Mars
Barsoom, book three
Picks up the moment the last book stopped. Dejah Thoris is sealed in the Temple of the Sun, the woman who put her there is getting away, and John Carter follows her across the whole of Barsoom to the frozen north, where a hidden nation has been waiting a very long time for someone like him.
The end of the first arc, and the book the first two were building to. The complete text, cleanly set, with the contents page working.
“In the shadows of the forest that flanks the crimson plain by the side of the Lost Sea of Korus in the Valley Dor, beneath the hurtling moons of Mars, speeding their meteoric way close above the bosom of the dying planet, I crept stealthily along the trail of a shadowy form that hugged the darker places with a persistency that proclaimed the sinister nature of its errand. For six long Martian months I had haunted the vicinity of the hateful Temple of the Sun, within whose slow-revolving shaft, far beneath the surface of Mars, my princess lay entombed—but whether alive or dead I knew not.”

About Chris Nohall
Planetary romance and Regency courtship from the years before either had a genre label. I take texts nobody owns and make editions worth paying for: clean typography, working contents pages, no scanner noise, and sets that belong together. Everything here is DRM-free — the file is yours once you have it.
