Summary

Barsoom Series Collection: 7 John Carter Stories is an audiobook collection of seven novels/stories of John Carter by Edgar Rice Burroughs. It will transport you to a fascinating new world unlike any other. Join John Carter as he finds himself on another planet beyond his deepest imagination - Mars, with almost a complete lack of resources.

Edgar Rice Burroughs' writings are inspired by a number of science-fiction writers and even some scientists who were dedicated to learning more about extraterrestrial life and ventures in space exploration. This infamous, well-written piece of literature by Burroughs has also been adapted by a number of writers in short stories, novels, films, and comics. Enjoy these must-hear novels in a beautifully narrated audiobook. It includes:

1. A Princess of Mars 2. The Gods of Mars 3. The Warlord of Mars 4. Thuvia, Maid of Mars 5. The Chessmen of Mars 6. The Master Mind of Mars 7. Yellow Men of Mars

Follow John Carter as he travels through the desolate landscape of Mars. Experience adventures full of feats of daring and dazzling swordplay!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Great read

I’ve enjoyed ERB stories and always wanted to read the John Carter series. I’m now in book 3 of this audiobook and no regrets. The author is a wordsmith and the books are well crafted. It fairly gallops through the adventures that our noble hero finds on Mars. If you like Jules Verne and H Rider Haggard then you will probably enjoy John Carter and Tarzan too.

Navigation of the book is terrible

The narrator seems like some old school fellow. Not good really, It hinders this collection.

Also the PDF you get doesn't help with navigating the book. Book 2 for example is like chapter 32. 32 isn't listed on the PDF.

This collection needs reworked with a better narrator.

Entertaining

I did enjoy listening to this although I did not warm to the narrator's voice.
The characters are stereotypes but if you listen with a smile on your face then it is fun.

Life On Mars

After watching a bit of the John Carter film, I was sceptical of this collection but thought I try it. It turns out to be pretty good but I don't really like the John Carter charactor at all but despite that, if you are a fan of Edgar Rice Burroughs, then you will like this collection.

A lost gem

Truly a blessing to have found this audio book. I now know why Disney placed this as a contender for Star Wars.

It's save to say that the main plot line in how our hero gets to Mars is obviously lacking a bit of serious scientific knowledge, but, if you want to enjoy this audio book then you will have to just let that pass by. You also have to let pass the other things we now know about Mars too.

Once he is there I promise it gets good, and I must say the writing is spectacular. Lots of 'new' words (to me anyway), which are no longer used by modern writers makes the adventures of Mr Carter all the more endearing. Fabulous book and one that has stood the test of time.

Epic

A Well read collection of some of the Barsoom stories. The only problem I had with this is that there is nothing to tell you where each book starts, I was 5 books into this when something happens and the book went back to the beginning and it took me ages to find where i had got to

Stunning Narration

Eric Vincent is a brilliant narrator. He really makes the wonderful Barsoom novels come alive. I highly recommend this wonderful collection.
