Reviewer: scott - November 18, 2013 Subject: Pretty good story One must take into account that the book was written in 1918 when listening to this si-fi story. But it is a great story and thank you so much for reading it to us. It makes my one hour drive each way to work enjoyable/bearable. |

Reviewer: Alex the Girl - April 1, 2013 Subject: Ok but classic To be honest, it is the fact that this work is a classic which compels me to give it such a high rating. It's a thoroughly enjoyable romp-on-a-foreign-planet type of story, with a bit of boy-meets-girl thrown in for all-round appeal. While the storyline is far from perfect (I found that some areas were too dense and some too scanty, as well as some occurrences being just too convenient), it is still genuinely enjoyable. Burroughs had a fantastic vocabulary, and his way of describing a scene really draws the reader in. I would call this a holiday read, but a good one. |
