"Synthetic Men of Mars (The Martian Series Book #9)" by Edgar Rice Burroughs - 1st PRINT Paperback - Published in 1963 by Ballantine (F 739 - 50 cents cover price) - 160 pages - Good condition. Tara of Helium, the Warlord’s beautiful and spirited daughter, is carried away by the vast winds of a violent Martian Storm. Tara brings her small one-man flyer down safely enough, but she is stranded in a strange part of Barsoom, where magnificent rykors-headless bodies work like cattle at the mercy of their pitiless masters, the kaldanes-creatures which are all head and no body. And this is not all, for in trying to escape from the Kaldanes Tara is captured by the city of Manator where she becomes the prize in the Martian game of chess, jetan-played with living pieces-and played to the death! There is the usual browning inside the covers as is common with vintage paperbacks, general wear to the cover, including some edge and corner wear (see the scan) and some light creasing, a number 9 written in ink on the spine, and some other listed ERB titles circled in ink opposite the title page, but this book is still in very collectible condition.
