Book 5 of the Barsoom Saga - Authorized by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., and Featuring Rare and Previously Unpublished Archival Materials
The largest storm known to the history of Barsoom sweeps the flier of Tara of Helium, headstrong daughter of John Carter and Dejah Thoris, halfway across the face of the planet to the mysterious Valley of Bantoom. There rule the ghoulish, bodiless heads known as kaldanes riding upon the eerie headless torsos of their rykor mounts. Behind Tara comes the warrior Gahan of Gathol, intent on rescuing the princess who has spurned his love. But escape from the spine-chilling warrens of Bantoom's kaldane king will lead Tara and Gahan-along with Ghek, their unlikely kaldane companion-to the even stranger and deadlier city of Manator, where they must survive the arena in a bloodthirsty game of living chess.

Dick Award finalist The Alchemists; and the novels The Pathfinders, A Key for the Nonesuch, and Return of the Breakneck Boys. He has written several novelizations, including Hook, based on the Steven Spielberg film, and Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, based on the animated movie.

Joe Jusko is among today's most acclaimed fantasy, pin-up, and comic artists. His work has been featured on book and comic posters, and on the much-praised 1992 Marvel Masterpieces trading cards. Jusko is a recipient of myriad industry honors, including a Certificate of Merit from the Society of Illustrators and a 2001 Chesley Award nomination. Fittingly, he was born on September 1, sharing his birthday with Edgar Rice Burroughs.
