Before pop-culture master Edgar Rice Burroughs invented Tarzan, he created Confederate officer John Carter, warrior and gentle-man.
Mysteriously sent to a savage alternate Mars, Carter's headlong adventures among Tharks and thoats enthralled generations of top space scientists and sci-fi writers—and inspired Hollywood directors from George Lucas (Star Wars) to Gene Roddenberry (Star Trek) and James Cameron (Avatar).
The2012 filmJohn Carterbrings to life this pioneering planetary romance of swordplay and world-saving, forbidden loves and alien wars.
