Сомнамбулический поиск неведомого Кадата
This book and its series are noted as early inspiration by many later science fiction authors including Robert A. Heinlein, Arthur C. Clarke, and Ray Bradbury. Bradbury admired Burroughs' stimulating romantic tales, and they were an inspiration for his "The Martian Chronicles" (1950), which used some similar conceptions of a dying Mars. Burroughs' "Barsoom" novels have also been cited as a model for H. P. Lovecraft's "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath". Frederik Pohl paid homage to the novel in his 1972 short story, "Sad Solarian Screenwriter Sam," although it is a backhanded compliment: the story so offends the actual Martians, they obliterate the Earth (as the Martians attempt to do in "The War of the Worlds" by H.G. Wells).
