About This Item

New York: Ace Books # 51590, 1976. ----- 012440 - The scan you see is the book you get. Solft cover (roughly) 7" by 4 1/4" (inches) tight square true & clean, flat mostly uncreased spine, 218 pages, Near Fine condition, great cover art by Boris Vallejo. "The story deals with West's efforts to free his new-found friends from the tyranny of the Mahars. The region visited by West is apparently an area of Pellucidar different from that in which Burroughs set his stories, from which the Mahars were driven at the end of the second book in the series, Pellucidar. Evidently there are other locales in which the reptiles are dominant. Therefore West never runs into any of Burrough's human Pellucidarian characters, such as David Innes, Abner Perry, Dian the Beautiful, Ghak the Hairy One, or any of the others." Check out the scans. . 1st Edition 1st Printing. Soft Cover. Near Fine. Illus. by Cover by Boris Vallejo. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

Synopsis

Mahars of Pellucidar is a 1976 novel written by John Eric Holmes, the first of his Pellucidar pastiches, first published by Ace Books in 1976. Set in Edgar Rice Burroughs' imaginary interior world of Pellucidar, the book features a species of intelligent flying reptiles (Mahars) invented by Burroughs in his first Pellucidar novel, At the Earth's Core. Holmes' human protagonist, Christopher West, was named in honor of his own son, Christopher West Holmes.
