Drawn across the cosmic void by a love that defies time and space, a legendary warrior awakens in a supposed Martian paradise-only to discover an inescapable hell.
Ten agonizing years have passed since Earth-born John Carter was ripped from the embrace of his beloved Dejah Thoris. Now, the mysterious powers of the universe have finally answered his desperate prayers, hurtling him once more to the red plains of Barsoom. But Carter has not returned to the familiar world he once conquered. Instead, he finds himself trapped within the fabled Valley Dor-a mythical heaven where millions of Martians journey to find eternal peace, only to be slaughtered by the horrific Plant Men and the savage Great White Apes.
Alongside his fiercely loyal companion, the towering green giant Tars Tarkas, Carter must battle his way through an underworld ruled by the cruel Holy Therns and the merciless Black Pirates of Barsoom. With enemies lurking in every golden corridor and the very gods of Mars arrayed against them, the two greatest swordsmen of two worlds must defy ancient superstitions and fight for survival in a treacherous labyrinth of deception, monsters, and blood.
