Summary
A Princess of Mars is a science fantasy novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the first of the Barsoom series. Set on Mars, the story is full of heroic feats and interplanetary romance, against the background of a dying planet with an increasingly arid environment. The humanoid Red Martians who are allies of the protagonist, Carter, control the planet’s system of canals. When Dejah Thoris, the Princess of Helium is captured by the Tharks, Carter recues her. Against his will, Carter becomes embroiled in the politics of the Red and Green Martians in his mission to keep Dejah from harm, eventually leading the Tharks against Zodanga, the historic enemy of Helium. Winning Dejah Thoris' heart, he is crowned Prince of Helium, and the two live happily together for many years. Then the Atmosphere Plant breaks down.... The story continues in The Gods of Mars.
