''John Carter of Mars'' is the eleventh and final book in the ''Barsoom'' series by Edgar Rice Burroughs. It is not actually a novel but rather a collection of two ''John Carter of Mars'' stories. The first story was originally published in 1940 by Whitman as a Better Little Book entitled ''John Carter of Mars''. Although credited to Edgar Rice Burroughs, it was written (and illustrated) by his son, John Coleman Burroughs and was later expanded and re-published in ''Amazing Stories'' as "John Carter and the Giant of Mars", the name it goes under in the collection.〔http://www.johncolemanburroughs.com/0335.html〕 The second story, "Skeleton Men of Jupiter", was first published in ''Amazing Stories'' in 1943. Intended as the first in a series of novelettes to be later collected in book form, in the fashion of ''Llana of Gathol'', it ends with the plot unresolved, and the intended sequels were never written. Several other writers have written pastiche endings for the story. The first edition of ''John Carter of Mars'' (a title that Burroughs never actually used for any book in the ''Barsoom'' series) was published in 1964 by Canaveral Press, fourteen years after Burroughs's death. ==Stories== *"John Carter and the Giant of Mars" *"Skeleton Men of Jupiter" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Carter of Mars (collection)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
