Ingres77 traces some of the ways you can see the impact of 1912's A Princess of Mars on science fiction, but admits Edgar Rice Burrough's work may feel dated. "Not exclusively through any fault of the author, but because it's been copied and repackaged so many times without, itself, remaining popular that it ends up feeling derivative even though it predates the stories we're so familiar with." Are you familiar with the Barsoom series, or only the 2012 movie, John Carter of Mars ? (Cannonball Read 13)
