It's rare when I run across something new about Edgar Rice Burroughs' Mars series. But then I found this cover, which I rate as 'okay' at best. It's by George Barr, for the paperback of Richard Lupoff's "Barsoom," an in-depth examination of ERB's John Carter series.

March to Other Worlds Day 28 Dark Tide of Mars by Chris L. Adams
As we close out the fourth week of the March to Other Worlds, I’d like to present one of the best books I read in the past year, Dark Tides of Mars by Chris L. Adams.
This book reads like a lost manuscript of Edgar Rice Burroughs that has surfaced seventy-three years after the great man passed. It embodies the flavor of ERB’s work from the narrative style, to the brilliant action scenes, to the tense little political intrigues and dialogues. It opens with the rulers of Helium having uncovered a threat to the existence of all life on Mars. The stores of radium which power all of their advanced technology are depleting and unless they find new sources to mine, Barsoomian civilization will grind to a halt. Yet, while there is life, there is hope, and Helium decides to send Dat Voga, a young scientist-warrior, as an ambassador to a distant city which historically had been a major producer of radium to work out an alliance. But as Dat Voga is about to learn, this city has problems of its own—problems that the emissaries from Helium cannot help but become involved in. Soon Dat Voga is fighting for his life, tiptoeing around a mad scientist, and—most importantly—visiting a place that not even John Carter has been—the ancient seas and civilizations of the red planet. And while the reader discovers wonder after wonder, the action never stops.
This is a remarkable book which I just couldn’t put down. Dat Voga is a hero ERB could have created, on an adventure that feels like a remarkably fresh product of the master-writer’s mind. Rumor has it that more books are coming and I can’t wait to read them.

INTRIGUE IN THE COURT OF ZOR
Born to an ancient line of noble and courageous forebears, Dejah Thoris, young and headstrong princess of the mighty empire of Helium, longs for a life of excitement and purpose beyond the cloistered walls of her royal palace. When a foreign ambassador arrives with an invitation to visit his city-state in hopes of fostering diplomatic relations, the princess defies the protests of her father and jed, traveling to the shadowy metropolis of Zor as Helium’s emissary. But Dejah Thoris soon finds that her hosts are not like the gallant folk of Helium, and before she knows it, their nefarious machinations ensnare her in a tangled web of artifice, perfidy, and murder—and a treacherous plot that portends tragedy not only for her own family, but for the entire Heliumetic empire.
Bonus Novella: “John Carter of Mars®: Swords of the Mind” by Geary Gravel
John Carter is baffled when he encounters his son’s badly damaged flier racing through the Martian skies with no one on board.

For more than a century fans have been entranced by Edgar Rice Burroughs’ arid red planet of Barsoom, with its valiant city states and hordes of four-armed green Martians inhabiting the dead sea bottoms, all pitted against one another in a deadly fight for survival. But what was ancient Barsoom like in its prime, before the oceans evaporated and its proud peoples were forced to construct an atmosphere factory to keep themselves alive on a dying world? Find out the answer in Dark Tides of Mars: A Novel of Barsoom by Chris L Adams, the newest volume in the Wild Adventures of Edgar Rice Burroughs series!
Barsoom is dying, its atmosphere thinning with each passing year, the seas that once flourished upon its surface dried up eons ago. When warrior-scientist Dat Voga is asked to become Helium’s ambassador to distant cities that may provide a desperate chance at life for the people of Barsoom, he leaps at the opportunity. But even as this new hope dangles on a thread, a madman seeks to hasten the Red Planet’s doom—and Dat Voga is hurled headlong upon an odyssey across the chasm of Time itself!
