John Carter returns to Mars at long last, discovers that his beloved, Dejah Thoris, is gone, and becomes trapped in the Eden of Mars, a legendary, brutal land that imprisons all who enter.

Suddenly projected to Mars, John Carter found himself a captive of the savage green men of Thark. Dejah Thoris, lovely Princess of Helium, is also a captive. A thousand miles lay between them and rescue.
