Synopsis

For more than a century readers have been entranced by Edgar Rice Burroughs’ arid red planet of Barsoom, with its valiant city states and hordes of four-armed green Martians inhabiting the dead sea bottoms, all pitted against one another in a deadly fight for survival. But what was ancient Barsoom like in its prime, before the oceans evaporated and its proud peoples were forced to construct an atmosphere factory to keep themselves alive on a dying world? Find out the answer in Dark Tides of Mars: A Novel of Barsoom by Chris L Adams, the newest volume in the Wild Adventures of Edgar Rice Burroughs series!
 
Barsoom is dying, its atmosphere thinning with each passing year, the seas that once flourished upon its surface dried up eons ago. When warrior-scientist Dat Voga is asked to become Helium’s ambassador to distant cities that may provide a desperate chance at life for the people of Barsoom, he leaps at the opportunity. But even as this new hope dangles on a thread, a madman seeks to hasten the Red Planet’s doom—and Dat Voga is hurled headlong upon an odyssey across the chasm of Time itself!
 
THE WILD ADVENTURES OF EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS
In the Wild Adventures of Edgar Rice Burroughs series, today’s authors innovate and expand upon Burroughs’ classic tales of wonder in truly wild fashion, even moving his characters and storylines outside the bounds of canon to alternate universes!

About The Author

About Chris L Adams Chris L Adams spent years playing guitar in various bands and during that time was more of a voracious reader than a writer.

Chris resides in Southern West Virginia with his wife and daughter.

Goodreads review by Win on January 08, 2024

Dark Tides of Mars (#13 in the authorized Wild Adventures of Edgar Rice Burroughs line of novels) by Chris L Adams is everything a reader could hope for in a sword-and-planet adventure.

Goodreads review by Clark on March 29, 2024

Really enjoyed this book. At first I wasn't sure if I would like it since I've been reading ERB for most of my life and couldn't imagine anyone coming close to his writing style, but Adams does a great job with this book. After awhile I couldn't even tell this wasn't an ERB book that I had, by some......more

I purchased my copy at Pulpfest last summer. Edgar Rice Burroughs second greatest creation, the world of Barsoom (The planet we know as Mars) was the fountainhead of heroic Sci-Fi adventure as we know it today. There would be no Dune, Star Wars etc. without Burrough's Barsoom saga. Chris L. Adams tak......more

Goodreads review by Gilbert on November 25, 2023

This book reads like a lost manuscript of Edgar Rice Burroughs has surfaced seventy-three years after the great man passed. It embodies the flavor of ERB’s work from the narrative style, to the brilliant action scenes, to the tense little political intrigues and dialogues. It opens with the rulers o......more
