Una Princesa de Marte: A Princess of Mars, Spanish edition

by Edgar Rice Burroughs

Overview

John Carter va a buscar prospecciones en Arizona inmediatamente después del final de la guerra. Habiendo encontrado una rica veta de oro, choca con los apaches. Mientras intenta evadir la persecución escondiéndose en una cueva sagrada, es misteriosamente transportado a Marte, llamado "Barsoom" por sus habitantes. Carter descubre que tiene una gran fuerza y una agilidad sobrehumana en este nuevo entorno como resultado de su menor gravedad y menor presión atmosférica. Pronto se enamora de una tribu nómada de marcianos verdes. Gracias a su fuerza y destreza marcial, Carter asciende a una alta posición en la tribu y se gana el respeto y, finalmente, la amistad de Tars Tarkas, uno de los jefes Thark.

About the Author

Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) had various jobs before getting his first fiction published at the age of 37. He established himself with wildly imaginative, swashbuckling romances about Tarzan of the Apes, John Carter of Mars and other heroes, all at large in exotic environments of perpetual adventure. Tarzan was particularly successful, appearing in silent film as early as 1918 and making the author famous. Burroughs wrote science fiction, westerns and historical adventure, all charged with his propulsive prose and often startling inventiveness. Although he claimed he sought only to provide entertainment, his work has been credited as inspirational by many authors and scientists.
