I was bracing myself for a spring-loaded monkey. You've done so much to spread the love for Burroughs, they ought to put you on their permanent comp list.
Congrats a receiving your package from ERB Inc. The 15% off code is a good excuse for me to start collecting the Tarzan novels in hardback. I own the complete set of omnibus paperbacks but they are not nearly as nice as the hard cover books. I introduced one of my daughters to Burroughs last summer so I’ll give her my set of Tarzan paperbacks.
Bought and read all of the Tarzan books. Loved them. But, only read 1 of the Mars and Venus series. Now, I want to go and dig my Tarzan books out of storage.
I have all of the Mars books in the Science Fiction Book Club editions that feature Frazetta covers on all but one book, I forget which one, that features a cover by Richard Corbin. The dust jackets are the best physical features of the books which are typical of the very low end production values of SFBC books of the time.
What an amazing box! I'll certainly have to pick something up to support them...while waiting for them to make their editions of the Barsoom series so I can upgrade that entire line of essentials from those paperbacks into something that'll survive a dozen rereadings in my lifetime.
Admit it. Roger is the creative brain behind these videos. Can I get Roger's autograph ? ERB has given me Many Hours of joy and entertainment. And you Michael seem like a kindred soul. Thank You for having me in to Stately Vaughan Manor :)
Very cool! I love the giddy excitement in your face as you opened the package! Love your enthusiasm and love for these books. Thanks for sharing the code and website! My dad is a big fan of Tarzan and I might just send him one of those nice hard covers as a surprise. And I just started the Mars series, so I might treat myself too lol. Very cool!
Congratulations on all the swag! You deserve it as much as you cover ERB. I met some of the people from ERB inc at Pulpcon a couple years ago and they were all really cool.
A lot of the early stuff was written to be serialized in magazines, so you'd get a new "chapter each week." They're made to be easy read in short bursts. Many of his works are public domain so you can throw them on a Kindle or something for nothing now. Most of the "Mars" series is out there, for example.
I have only read Princess of Mars twice both times I checked it out at my local library now I am thinking about picking it up at some point for my own collection along with the rest of the series. I think I might give Tarzan a try this year since your videos on the series makes it sound like a solid fun series.
Ja mieszkam tysiące mil od USA i kocham twórczosc ERB mam wszystkie książki które przetłumaczono na język polski nadal tłumacza mam już od 60 lat na swojej pólce Tarzan 1-10 i 13 resztę tomy w tłumaczeniu do ok 2026 zakonczą mam 69 lat i modlę się abym dotrwał i je przeczytał bo nie znam angielskiego a po angielsku u nas można kupić bardzo drogie ale są zresztą przez Amazon można sprowadzić ale u nas jest takie powiedzenie jak coś jest drogie ..."

Funny that they would send you that because I was going to email you to ask if you have ever read the ERB Universe books. I hadn't seen you review any or talk about them and I kinda figured you had not. I hope you enjoy the Geary book enough to want to try the other books. I especially think the Victory Harben book by Christopher Paul Carey is especially fun and I can't imagine anyone who loves the Pellucidar and Mars series would not love it. Great stuff by the way and since I already had some books in my cart I intend to use your code. 😀
Kudos! Glad you’re getting the appreciation you deserve, you majorly helped me with your Conan video about what collection was best to get, let’s say I went with the Gollancz edition.
That was Fun! I got my first order in. The Tarzan 1-4 package (4 for 3), and Tarzan at the Earth's Core. Looking forward to the rest of the Pellucidar series, and a bunch of others!
I'm dying for those covers. They're so beautiful but I made a promise to myself that I can't buy any more books this year until I catch up with my TBR's. I am already trying to find a loophole.😁
I just received the first three Tarzan books a few days ago as a result of your mentioning them in your Complete Tarzan video last week. And although they are gorgeous editions and I must own them all, I decided I would wait another month before ordering any more. But then, you dapper devil, you gave us that coupon code. What was I to do? Three more Tarzan books on their way.
That is sooo cool. ERB is my favorite as I've said before. I've got one of the new Tarzan books by another author which I haven't read yet. I like his lesser known series such as Venus and the Moon men etc as well. Is everything available do you know?
In the near-ish future, I'd like to read some Edgar Rice Burroughs to my kid. Do y'all recommend I start with Tarzan series, John Carter series, or the Time Forget series? Thanks!
Yeah, you've been hyping me a lot on this guy. It's nice to know I'm not alone in thinking this man was a fantastic author. Does the code work for the t-shirts?
Those pins are cool they look a bit like the Tarzan Lord of The Jungle Saturday morning cartoon from the 70s! I wonder if they have small ones to put on my jacket?
