In this second book in Edgar Rice Burroughs Barsoom saga, John Carter returns to Mars after he was flung back to Earth at the end of the previous title.
Ten long years have passed, and when he returns, John Carter finds himself once more flung into danger and high adventure!
Can he survive the cruel deception of the Valley Dor, which promises peace and happiness for all martians, but delivers neither? Can he escape the tunnels of the Therns? Cruel white Martians that practice cannabalism and deception? See him fight the cruel Black Pirates of Barsoom! And when imprisoned by them, who is the identity of this strange boy in the cell next to him? Watch him defy the edicts of Issus, the so called goddess of life and death upon Barsoom!
Will he ever reunite with his lost love? The beautiful Red Martian Princess, Dejah Thoris?
Another tale of pulp adventure upon the surface of mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs, narrated by Michael Ward.
