The Master Mind of Mars

“The Master Mind of Mars“ is a novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, an American fiction writer, who created such great characters as Tarzan and John Carter of Mars. The Master Mind of Mars is a science fantasy novel, the sixth of the Barsoom series.

• It features the characters of John Carter and Carter's wife Dejah Thoris.
• Full of swordplay and daring feats, the series is considered a classic example of 20th-century pulp fiction.
