John Carter of Mars: Gods of the Forgotten

News of the passing of a dear friend spurs John Carter, Warlord of Mars, to investigate a series of perplexing mysteries in the forbidding icy northern reaches of Barsoom. The enigmas only deepen as he embarks upon a journey to the far-flung treasure city of Gathol with his spirited daughter Tara and an unexpected stowaway. Ensnared in an insidious conspiracy that reaches from his early years on the Red Planet back into the dim recesses of the ancient past, John Carter and his trusted longsword are now all that stand in the way of a dread menace that threatens the existence of all life on Barsoom.

Bonus Novelette: “Victory Harben: Stormwinds of Va-nah”
by Ann Tonsor Zeddies

Continuing her wayward journey upon the currents of spacetime, Victory Harben arrives in the strange hollow interior world of Va-nah from Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic The Moon Maid. Thrust into an uneasy alliance with a renegade Va-gas warrior and her young son, Victory must turn all her wits and skills toward survival—for she and her companions have been marked for death by the brutal the Kalkar soldiers under the reign of the vile tyrant Orthis.

In 1921, Edgar Rice Burroughs wrote a novel unlike any other in his entire catalog—a sordid tale of drug addiction, corruption, and murder set against the backdrop of Prohibition-era Hollywood. He believed it to be one of his finest works, written as it was from his own experience after he and his family moved to their Tarzana Ranch in Southern California and became exposed to both the allure and perils of nearby Tinseltown. Now, celebrate the hundredth anniversary of this timeless work in The Girl from Hollywood Centennial Edition, featuring a new foreword by Michael D. Sellers (author of John Carter and the Gods of Hollywood), a specially commissioned frontispiece by renowned artist Douglas Klauba, classic cover art by P. J. Monahan, and rare and never-before-seen bonus materials from the archives of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., in Tarzana, California.

Many Edgar Rice Burroughs fans don’t realize that the widely available Ace Books paperback edition of The Girl from Hollywood published in the 1970s was significantly abridged, with lengthy passages excised throughout. The Girl from Hollywood Centennial Edition restores this missing text.

The Girl from Hollywood Centennial Edition will be available in a paperback and a hardcover Collector’s Edition. The book is now shipping!

Freshly Squeezed Pulp (FSP) is proud to announce the rerelease of their 2018–2021 audio drama The Adventures of Tarzan®, which has now been licensed through Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.! Brought to you by FSP and ERB, Inc., The Adventures of Tarzan seeks to share the adventurous world of the original Tarzan novels for modern audiences in the style of old-time radio serials through the lens of comedy podcasting.

Check out the series trailer below or by clicking HERE

Following in the footsteps of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ original Tarzan® novels, this Freshly Squeezed Pulp Program seeks to both retell and modernize the wacky exploits of world-renowned pulp hero Tarzan of the Apes® through a mix of comedy and classic drama. Born to castaways on the western coast of equatorial Africa, a young Earl of Greystoke is brought up by a family of intelligent apes. When a band of tag-along explorers are also marooned on the same beach, Tarzan comes to meet other humans for the first time, and learn more about the life in Europe his family tragically left behind. Here, Tarzan meets a young Jane Porter, and the two start a wacky family of friends and redemptive foes alike. As Tarzan’s absurd adventures continue, the group cannot help but ask why their lives are plagued with such strange coincidences. Perhaps it’s “The Last Game” as prophesied by La of Opar that places Tarzan at its very center of a growing chaotic crisis. What will Tarzan do in the face of his seemingly never ending list of treacherous enemies? Will his family and friends make it through their extravagant experiences alive themselves? And will Tarzan accept his destiny as a hero, or seek a simpler life void of Adventure? We implore you to listen to Freshly Squeezed Pulp’s The Adventures of Tarzan® to find out the answers to these questions and more!

Freshly Squeezed Pulp is a vintage comedy podcasting troupe from Duke University that produced pulp-inspired podcasts in the style of golden-age radio.
