John Carter of Mars : Return to Barsoom

Fans of  ‘John Carter’ should check out this free ebook by artist Scott Dutton (via his website  http://www.catspawdynamics.com).

It has a load of  great reviews, and due to copyright and all it is FREE in epub and mobi formats. Moby’s is not getting paid for this, and in fact is doing this promo without asking Scott because Moby is a fan of his artwork. (edit: OK, he knows now. Hi Scott!)

Moby hopes you like his writing. Here’s a sample review taken from his bloggy thing, by Ed Berland (no relation):

“Scott, I just finished reading your novel. I’m almost 65 and you took me back to my teenage years as I was able to relive the excitement of Barsoom again. You captured the flavor of ERB’s world perfectly. I won’t divulge what you’ve done with the characters as I think many, many people will find your book to be a guilty pleasure. I encourage you to continue writing more novels in this genre. Well Done!”

Or try this review blurb from http://geekynerfherder.blogspot.co.uk (no relation):

“Set in present times, 150 or so years after when the events of the John Carter books are said to be set, and acknowledging what we currently know about Mars, the book charts the story of Chester Ventura, just an ordinary joe who discovers a shuttle space craft sent from John Carter on Barsoom meant for his nephew Edgar, and his unexpected journey and adventures on Mars.”
