John Carter of Mars

The collection features two novelettes set in the John Carter universe, with "John Carter and the Giant of Mars" written by Edgar Rice Burroughs' son, John Coleman Burroughs, despite the father's name on the byline. The second story, "Skeleton Men of Jupiter," is the incomplete first part of a planned four-part novel, interrupted by World War II and Edgar's declining health. This work highlights the continuation of the beloved Martian saga through familial legacy and the impact of historical events on storytelling.
