"Master Mind" and "Fighting Man"—Two Complete Burroughs Mars Books in One!
Here are two full-length, unabridged quintessential Barsoom novels in one ebook—for one low price! When soldier and soldier of fortune Ulysses S. Paxton wishes on a star, he's actually looking at Mars, planet and emblem of the God of War. Soon enough, however, Paxton's wishing ceases; he is whisked away to Mars itself—AKA Barsoom—to an almost unknown part of the planet.
Captured by the planet's greatest and maddest scientist, Paxton is forced to assist in grisly brain transplants—until the brain of the beautiful slave woman, and the object of his adoration, is to be transplanted into that of a rich, aged Barsoomian crone. Paxton rebels, but his rebellion results in his brain being transplanted to the body of an ape. Even then he is undaunted, determined to right the wrong done his beloved and restore her to her own body. Soon he is off on a series of hair-raising adventures that will bring Mars to the verge of all-out war and require the intervention of no less than John Carter, the Warlord himself, to avert.
And then, in A Fighting Man of Mars, Burroughs takes us inside the mind and heart of a typical Barsoomian soldier, whose life is changed when he falls in love—and discovers just how far he is willing to go to win the woman who captured his heart. And on Barsoom, facing death ten times over is just the beginning!
