The shimmering, cloud-covered planet of Venus conceals a wondrous
secret: the strikingly beautiful yet deadly world of Amtor. In
Amtor, cities of immortal beings flourish in giant trees reaching
thousands of feet into the sky; ferocious beasts stalk the
wilderness below; rare flashes of sunlight precipitate devastating
storms; and the inhabitants believe their world is saucer-shaped
with a fiery center and an icy rim. Stranded on Amtor after his
spaceship crashes, astronaut Carson Napier is swept into a world
where revolution is ripe, the love of a princess carries a dear
price, and death can come as easily from the blade of a sword as
from the ray of a futuristic gun."" "Pirates of Venus" is the
exciting inaugural volume in the last series imagined and penned by
Edgar Rice Burroughs. This commemorative edition features new
illustrations by Thomas Floyd, the original frontispiece by J.
Allen St. John, an afterword by Phillip Burger, a glossary of Amtor
terms by Scott Tracy Griffin, a map of Amtor drawn by Edgar Rice
Burroughs that appeared in the first edition, and an introduction
by acclaimed science fiction and horror novelist F. Paul Wilson.
