The Wizard of Venus — Edgar Rice Burroughs

The final adventure of Carson Napier among the exotic peoples and beasts of Amtor is Bur-roughs' THE WIZARD OF VENUS. Sequel to his fabulous four Venus novels, it is an adventure not to be missed as Napier encounters a new kind of science and a new master of alien deviltry.

PIRATE BLOOD, which is included in this very special Burroughs treat, is something no reader of the Tarzan-Carter-Napier novels will want to miss. Never before published, found among his papers long after Edgar Rice Burroughs' death, it is a complete adventure novel of excitement, high-pitched action, and derring-do. Its hero, a devil-may-care experimenter, designs his own aircraft and ventures among the little explored islands of the far seas to find that piracy still lives and that chivalry still requires the maxi-mum of endurance and the utmost in courage.
