The Gods of Mars

Ten years after being mysteriously whisked away from Mars, John Carter finds himself back on the red planet, but not in the arms of his beloved Dejah Thoris. Instead, he's dropped into the dreaded Valley Dor, a forbidden land from which no Martian has ever returned, rumored to be the afterlife itself. Carter must navigate treacherous new landscapes, confront ancient, bloodthirsty cults, and battle monstrous creatures in a desperate bid to uncover the fate of his wife and escape a destiny seemingly worse than death. This rip-roaring sequel plunges deeper into Barsoom's rich, perilous mythology, expanding the world with even more imaginative wonders and horrors.
