A review by stevenk
Thuvia, Maid of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs

3.0

This book doesn't star John Carter, Virginian, Civil War veteran, and now Warlord of Mars, but his son Carthoris. Carthoris just isn't as interesting a protagonist, we don't really know his place in Barsoom, and for that matter Thuvia's either so the tension just wasn't there for me. The lost city of Lothar was just too easy to find and escape from and it's inhabitants weren't that interesting. I glad I read it because overall I enjoy the literary world of Barsoom but I'd rate this book in the series a 2.5 if Goodreads allowed.
