After spending ten years on Earth, John Carter finally returns to Barsoom but finds himself in the Valley Dor, which is supposed to be the Barsoomian version of heaven. However, he soon discovers that it is anything but. The valley is a false heaven, a place of horror where the Therns, a white-skinned race of self-proclaimed gods, deceive and prey upon the Martians who come there on their once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage.As Carter ventures through the Valley Dor, he encounters various monstrous creatures, confronts the deceptive Therns, and uncovers a deeper conspiracy involving another ancient Martian race, the black-skinned First Born.

The Romance of Missionary Heroism John C Lambert The title page gives this book the subtitle, “True stories of the intrepid bravery and stirring adventures of missionaries with uncivilized man, wild beasts, and the forces of nature in all parts of the world.” The thrilling accounts in this collection include stories of Jacob Chamberlain’s medical ministry in India, the dangers faced by Alexander Mackay in Uganda, James Chalmers’ work among the headhunters of New Guinea, John Paton’s mission to the South Sea cannibals, and the Hawaiian queen Kapiolani’s challenge to the gods of the volcano. “Romantic” in the sense that these brave missionaries faced the unknown, but never “romanticized” – all sacrificed home and luxury, and many suffered the loss of family, fortune, and even their lives.
