A review by cadmanreads
A Princess of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs
3.0
This book had a lot going for it but ultimately wasn't really to my tastes. I like the world and its inhabitants and was glad the author explained how they can all live on Mars.
I realise it's a classic but in this case that meant old fashioned. I understand that John Carter is a classic hero but I didn't need to hear how great he was every time he met someone. The love interest plot was predictable and I got a sexist vibe in some parts of the story. Much of this is probably due to when the book was written.
