dirtymartini 's review for:

A Princess of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs

5.0

---

This is the book that started a life long love of reading for me from about 10yrs old. The movie... 'John Carter', don't go there!!! Almost a novella, so no real commitment in time. Seems silly to say as a grown-up, but I highly recommend it. Do not be dissuaded by the ridiculously sexist cover art, or the nit picky reviews. This book is a success on many levels. When you think of WHEN this was written, it is incredible the breadth of imagination held in Edgar Rice Burrough's head and heart.
