In this action sequel to "A Prince of Mars" the iconic Princess Dejah Thoris is abducted after surviving a horrendous airship crash intended to take her life. In the adventure that ensues, her husband, the equally iconic John Carter, Prince Warlord of Barsoom, and her son the Prince Darus of Helium along with a cast of wonderful characters from the preceding novel including Darus wife, the warrior princess Zurah of Helium, set sail in flying warships to free Dejah Thoris and punish those who abducted her. Like the first book, this volume continues the firmly literary style and polished dialogue of the preceding novel with fresh characters introduced and vastly different situations to test the metal of our heroes and heroines. 525 pages, sold only in high quality hard cover with dust jacket .
