Here is a parallel to his Mars series. Carson, an Earthling lost on Amtor (Venus), has rescued a princess whom he must save time and time and again. Luckily he has built a flying ship that is as silent as Wonder Woman's, although not invisible. Although everyone is armed with r-ray and T-ray weapons of destruction, the mighty sword is yet the weapon of choice for hero and villain alike.If you have read any of the Mars books, this has little more to offer.
