商品簡介


"The Chessmen of Mars" is a science fantasy novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, first published in 1922. It is the fifth book in the "Barsoom" series, which also includes "A Princess of Mars" and "The Gods of Mars." The Barsoom series is set on the planet Mars (Barsoom) and follows the adventures of the Earthman John Carter.


In "The Chessmen of Mars," Burroughs weaves a tale of interplanetary romance, adventure, and political intrigue. The story introduces readers to the world of Barsoom, a planet inhabited by various humanoid species, including the Red Martians, Green Martians, and many others.


The plot centers around Tara, the daughter of John Carter and Dejah Thoris, who becomes embroiled in a complex web of Martian politics. Tara is captured and transported to the city of Manator, where she becomes a pawn in a deadly game played on a giant living chessboard. The game involves real people as chess pieces, with the stakes being life and death.


As Tara navigates the challenges of Manator and encounters various characters, including the heroic Panthan Gahan and the villainous O-Tar, Jeddak (ruler) of Manator, the novel explores themes of loyalty, honor, and the consequences of political machinations. The titular "Chessmen" symbolize the characters manipulated by higher powers in this game of political chess.


Burroughs' imaginative storytelling and vivid descriptions bring the exotic and dangerous world of Barsoom to life. "The Chessmen of Mars" is a captivating blend of action, romance, and planetary adventure, showcasing the author's talent for creating imaginative and thrilling tales set on the Red Planet. It remains a classic work in the science fantasy genre and contributes to the enduring legacy of Burroughs' Barsoom series.
