This is just cool. Burroughs' presentation copy to his son, Jack, with a humorous sketch on the first preliminary leaf of Master Mind of Mars. I think the inscription reads: "Herding Martian cows on the borders of the Toonolian Marshes."

Yesterday was Michael Wm. Kaluta's birthday. A true fan of ERB and Barsoom.

In the wake of these horrific tropic storms and hurricanes we see a strange phenomenon playing out. I've seen images of this from the Bahamas to Florida. Reminds me greatly of the tragic march of the Barsoomian piers as they followed the receding seas for miles out into the drying sea beds. Check out this strange video of the effect. Sea recedes and leaves bare ocean floor

Just noticed that this thread had slipped to page 2 and had to give it a little bump. I'm in the process of re-reading the Barsoom series. It's been a couple of years for me, long enough that I had sort of forgotten enough of the details to make it fun again. Always interesting to see how the reader gets all of these obvious clues along the way that John Carter totally misses, then JC is surprised when things happen because he missed them. Good stuff!

I have finally collected all the books, and now I can work my way through them. I read Princess and Gods a long time ago, so I might as well start from the beginning because I certainly cannot recall all the little details. Now I need to get the Venus series, Pellucidar and find the last few Tarzan books I’m missing...

Chaykin cover. The colorist obviously didn't get the memo.
