Update: Weird World Returns…in Prose! 

Sometimes plans change…and sometimes for the better. We had been planning on running a La of Opar tale by Christopher Paul Carey as the bonus novelette in the back pages of Mike Wolfer’s upcoming ERB Universe novel, The Land That Time Forgot: Fortress Primeval. However, our intrepid VP of Publishing has a lot on his plate at the moment, including getting a start on his next novel, Victory Harben and the Reaver of Worlds. And so Christopher has decided to turn over the bonus novelette slot in Fortress Primeval to Mike Wolfer, who has penned a new prose novelette resurrecting a beloved brand, one that will be familiar to those who enjoyed reading the back-up stories in the old ERB DC Comics. Without further ado, introducing…

WEIRD WORLDS: VOYAGE INTO TERROR by Mike Wolfer

When Captain Douglas Conover and the crew of the vacuum airship Favonia embark on an exploratory mission through a dimensional barrier, they must confront the alien life-forms that infest a strange planetoid’s surface . . . and its interior!

This brand-new novelette will appear in the back pages of The Land That Time Forgot: Fortress Primeval, releasing later this fall!

Edgar Rice Burroughs Universe™

A century before the term “crossover” became a buzzword in popular culture, Edgar Rice Burroughs created the first expansive, fully cohesive literary universe. Coexisting in this vast cosmos was a pantheon of immortal heroes and heroines—Tarzan of the Apes®, Jane Porter®, John Carter®, Dejah Thoris®, Carson Napier™, and David Innes™ being only the best known among them. In Burroughs’ 80-plus novels, their epic adventures transported them to the strange and exotic worlds of Barsoom®, Amtor™, Pellucidar®, Caspak™, and Va-nah™, as well as the lost civilizations of Earth and even realms Beyond the Farthest Star™.

When a foreign ambassador arrives with an invitation to visit his city-state in hopes of fostering diplomatic relations, the princess defies the protests of her father and jed, traveling to the shadowy metropolis of Zor as Helium’s emissary. But Dejah Thoris soon finds that her hosts are not like the gallant folk of Helium, and before she knows it, their nefarious machinations ensnare her in a tangled web of artifice, perfidy, and murder—and a treacherous plot that portends tragedy not only for her own family, but for the entire Heliumetic empire.

Thursday, July 25, 2024 (Tarzana, California) Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., the company founded by the creator of Tarzan® and John Carter of Mars®, is excited to make its first announcement at this weekend’s San Diego Comic Con: To commemorate the centennial of the book publication of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic The Land That Time Forgot trilogy, 2024 will see the release of The Land That Time Forgot: Fortress Primeval. This thrilling new chapter in the ERB Universe is written by fan-favorite author Mike Wolfer, with stunning wraparound cover art by acclaimed fantasy illustrator Daren Bader.

“Never before has the company authorized a full-length novel building on Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Caspak trilogy,” says ERB, Inc., VP of Publishing Christopher Paul Carey. “In his new tale, Mike Wolfer has managed to faithfully capture the true spirit and essence of ERB’s epics of primordial adventure and romance. And because it’s a prelude to the original classic trilogy, the novel also serves as a great entry point into the series for new readers, as much as it will satisfy veteran fans of ERB’s beloved The Land That Time Forgot books. And stay tuned: this is only the beginning for the literary return to Caspak!”

The Land That Time Forgot: Fortress Primeval releases in Fall 2024 and can be preordered now. It will be available in trade paperback, standard hardcover, and a limited Collector’s Edition.

“Caspak Means Death!”

Hidden in the far South Pacific lies the lost island continent of Caprona, forgotten by history and time itself. In the year 1836, Sicilian Captain Fausto Caproni and his sister Marina lead a voyage across the raging seas to rediscover the fabled land first sighted by their grandfather—only to plunge into a terrifying tropical world known to its inhabitants as Caspak, thriving with giant carnivorous lizards and bestial tribesmen from the dawn of time. With only swords and muskets to defend themselves, the Caproni siblings are thrust into a desperate fight for survival against Caspak’s primordial creatures, but a greater threat may be allies among the crew who harbor a deadly secret agenda.

Bonus Novelette: “Weird Worlds: Voyage into Terror” by Mike Wolfer

When Captain Douglas Conover and the crew of the vacuum airship Favonia embark on an exploratory mission through a dimensional barrier, they must confront the alien life-forms that infest a strange planetoid’s surface . . . and its interior!

Edgar Rice Burroughs: Master of Adventure™

The creator of the immortal characters Tarzan of the Apes® and John Carter of Mars®, Edgar Rice Burroughs is one of the world’s most popular authors. Mr. Burroughs’ timeless tales of heroes and heroines transport readers from the jungles of Africa and the dead sea bottoms of Barsoom® to the miles-high forests of Amtor™ and the savage inner world of Pellucidar®, and even to alien civilizations Beyond the Farthest Star™. Mr. Burroughs’ books are estimated to have sold hundreds of millions of copies, and they have spawned 60 films and 250 television episodes.

Edgar Rice Burroughs Universe™

A century before the term “crossover” became a buzzword in popular culture, Edgar Rice Burroughs created the first expansive, fully cohesive literary universe. Coexisting in this vast cosmos was a pantheon of immortal heroes and heroines—Tarzan of the Apes®, Jane Porter®, John Carter®, Dejah Thoris®, Carson Napier™, and David Innes™ being only the best known among them. In Burroughs’ 80-plus novels, their epic adventures transported them to the strange and exotic worlds of Barsoom®, Amtor™, Pellucidar®, Caspak™, and Va-nah™, as well as the lost civilizations of Earth and even realms Beyond the Farthest Star™. Now the Edgar Rice Burroughs Universe expands in an all-new series of canonical tales written by today’s talented authors!

Preorder Now: Barsoom® Saga Books #1–3
in the Edgar Rice Burroughs Authorized Library™

Posted on June 11, 2024

Cover art by Joe Jusko

Tuesday, June 11, 2024 (Tarzana, California) Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., the company founded by the creator of Tarzan of the Apes® and John Carter of Mars®, is pleased to announce preorders for the first three volumes of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ original Barsoom® Saga in handsome ERB Authorized Library editions, sporting brand-new epic cover art and interior frontispieces by legendary artist Joe Jusko. For a limited time, preorder all three standard hardcover editions and get 20% off, or preorder the new Joe Jusko Legend Editions (see below for more details) from the individual product pages for A Princess of Mars, The Gods of Mars, and The Warlord of Mars. (Please note: The “Buy 3 Books and Get 20% Off” sale does not apply to the Joe Jusko Legend Editions.)

Although Mr. Burroughs is best known for creating his world-famous ape-man, he launched his renowned writing career with the serialization of “Under the Moons of Mars” in the pages of The All-Story magazine from February–July 1912, and many fans of his books consider the Barsoom series to be among his finest and most enduring works. “Under the Moons of Mars” was first published in hardcover in 1917 by A. C. McClurg & Co. under the title A Princess of Mars, and was followed by The Gods of Mars and The Warlord of Mars, both of which first appeared in The All-Story in 1913–14. The three novels make up one of the most highly influential and celebrated trilogies in the history of science fiction, and have left a permanent stamp on popular culture, influencing and inspiring the most prominent figures around the world, including Ray Bradbury, Carl Sagan, Jerry Seigel, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and James Cameron, to name just a few. In the words of Ray Bradbury, “Burroughs is probably the most influential writer in the entire history of the world.” Without Edgar Rice Burroughs’ John Carter of Mars, it is doubtful that Superman, Star Wars, or Avatar would exist for audiences to enjoy, at least not in their recognizable forms.

These stunning hardcover editions feature gorgeous new cover art and frontispieces by Joe Jusko; forewords by venerated fantasy author and SFWA Grand Master Michael Moorcock (Elric, Hawkmoon, The Eternal Champion), bestselling science fiction and fantasy author Kevin J. Anderson (Dune, Star Wars, The X-Files), and NASA astronaut Terrence W. Wilcutt (veteran of four Space Shuttle missions); afterwords by noted ERB scholar Henry G. Franke III; and a bounty of rare and previously unpublished archival materials.

The first three volumes of the Barsoom Saga are expected to ship Fall 2024.
