Where I do talk about the odd ending of the book in more detail than is generally acceptable.

Swords of Mars
(Barsoom #8)
by Edgar Rice Burroughs
serialized 1934 to 1935
pub as book 1936

And bizarrely enough I also talked about:
Small Game Hunting at the Local Coward Gun Club
by Megan Gail Coles
2019
Finalist, CBC Canada Reads
Finalist, Giller Prize

My review of 'Small Game Hunting':

I'll be back, hopefully, at the end of November (or beginning of December) with a review of Edgar Rice Burroughs' "Synthetic Men of Mars" (#9 in the Barsoom series).

OH AND... I'm also reading, very slowly and out loud to myself, 'Gulliver of Mars' AKA 'Lieut. Gullivar Jones: His Vacation' by Edwin Lester Arnold. Suggested to me by Joonbug Films (youtube.com/channel/UC-mrDrU8pdiqjacTBZ_8owg).
