Volumes 1-9 are truly wonderful works of imagination, especially if you like sword-fighting and science fiction. The John Carter of Mars books are some of the earliest science fiction, the first one, 'A Princess of Mars' is what put Burroughs on the map in 1912, even before Tarzan. What character would you cut from Thuvia, Maid of Mars? If you can't do accents or voices effectively, don't. How could the performance have been better? I first read these books in my teens and they have always stood out for me. The characters of Lothar are men who can create entire armies with their minds. What was one of the most memorable moments of Thuvia, Maid of Mars? If you want to listen to this book, try another narrator. I seriously cringed every time it was time for a character to speak. It would say, 'she said flatly' and his voice would be high and animated. Even worse, once he slipped on that accent, he didn't even follow the cues of what the characters were saying. I guess 'Mars' means 'weird' in Bolen's eyes. However, when he gets to the character voices, he made this really odd voice to go with some indefinable accent that sounds like a cross between a bad Asian accent and an indecipherable Italian one. Deep, resonant, and he is a decent reader. However, I don't think I could listen to even another chapter read by John Bolen.

I would definitely try another Burroughs book, I love the Mars series. Would you try another book from Edgar Rice Burroughs and/or John Bolen?
