| Summary |
"Marsin sotavaltias" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The story takes place on Mars, featuring John Carter, a heroic figure who is on a quest to rescue his beloved Dejah Thoris from danger while navigating the planet's complex politics and conflicts. As a blend of adventure, romance, and extraterrestrial intrigue, the novel draws readers into a richly imagined Martian world. At the start of the narrative, the protagonist, John Carter, is stealthily tracking a mysterious figure associated with his enemy, Thurid, determined to locate his imprisoned princess, Dejah Thoris. The opening details his reflections on past adversities and his memories of Dejah, who is captive in the dangerous Auringon temple. Carter's anxieties about her fate intertwine with the ongoing power struggles among the various Martian races. The tension escalates as Carter follows Thurid through the dangerous wilderness of Mars, unveiling deeper plots involving alliances between rival factions, hinting at greater calamities ahead for him and his loved ones.
