I down loaded this on the Kindle Fire I got at Christmas.  It was very inexpensive and it includes 5 of the Edgar Rice Boroughs John Carter stories.  Let me say at first that I liked the Disney Movie "John Carter of Mars" where clearly not a lot of people did.  I was looking for my first book for the Kindle.  I was really pleased by the Kindle and Edgar Rice Boroughs.  The language is from the turn of the last century and since the story takes place in the preceding century seems appropriate.  The stories are a bit formulaic but heck people read Dan Brown's and Clive Cusler's books.  I enjoyed these stories.  I might suggest that the Complete (Unexporgated) collection of Edgar Boroughs stories is only a little more expensive and I'll probably add that next.  It's fun - full of turn of the last century values and while the situations are a little contrived a good read.  Having these short books packaged together disguises that they were originally produced serially and released years apart and probably stand on their own merit a bit better given a bit of breathing space between each book.  Great stuff in a kind of Manifest Destiny way Regards,  Cliffc
