GENTLEMAN OF VIRGINIA. WARLORD OF MARS. Captain John Carter thought his days as a fighter were over. The South had lost the Civil War, and as a soldier now without a battle to fight or a cause to believe in, he journeyed west in search of a new life. Yet not even Carter could have expected that his new life would begin with his death in the Arizona desert, and his inexplicable arrival on the planet Mars.

Once more, John Carter has a cause to fight for-and this time, a love to win, as well. . . .
