This STORY WAS AMAZING!!!
I WILL NEVER FORGET IT...
One if the first books my mother gave me over 50 years ago.
Thanks Mom.
I had a Great Aunt give me a box of books.
She, in that moment saved my schooling.
I had the attention span of a house fly. .
But that box was full of Edgar Rice Burroughs books. Tarzan, Martian series, the earths core…. He had some western books and a mafia goon going full sci-fi.
I was tested at school 2 years later and had the reading comprehension of a college student.
Dorothy, thank you.
This story is fantastic!
This book is turning out to be a really good book to listen too. Thank you for sharing it. :)
Thanks! 🎉
Ive found so many great stories in the last few years.. i love listening to these as i go to bed.. like someones reading me a bedtime story... sometimes there so good they keep me up. Happened to me with tommyknockers lol
The movies good
Man this is a great story! I'd love to watch a series made from this.
It’d be too expensive to produce
@@SL-cl9gt That's debatable.
Very good.
"You can't mesmerize me I'm British."
I’m a yank … Edgar Rice Burroughs had me mesmerized for some very important years
@@keith4826 He is so underrated.
Peter Cushing. 😀👍
I saw that movie in a theater in 1976.
I think he's brilliant.
They looked forward to that moment with joy, but without haste, not pining for it, but seeming to have a foretaste of it in their hearts, of which they talked to one another. But when they looked at me with their sweet eyes full of love, when I felt that in their presence my heart, too, became as innocent and just as theirs, the feeling of the fullness of life took my breath away, and I worshipped them in silence. Their children were the children of all, for they all made up one family.
I really liked this story, even if the time paradox didn't fit as good as it should have.
One can definitely see the seeds of Barsoom in this early work of Burroughs. Thats actually the main item of interest in this, as it really has not aged well. All of the John Carter of Mars stories have everything present in this one, in greater abundance and of greater complexity and detail though I suppose its no wonder as they were published nearly thirty years apart. Amazing to think of the time this was written and the level of imagination needed for a mind of that age to conceive of such things.
Great story
thanks
great stuff :)
A classic that's still entertaining. You have to overlook the blindingly glaring scientific errors he made but still good!
Surely you jest good sir.
Written over a 100 years ago. The errors feel easy to overlook 🤓
Thanks for providing so many good Audiobooks. I listen often, all night overnight. You're welcome to check out my Suspense & Escape classic radio series uploads of the best episodes, all restored and digitally remastered. The sound quality is the best available. l have a playlist featuring only the Sci-Fi episodes, along with many episode playlists featuring specific actors. Plus I have select episodes from other series. Because you and so many others have X minus one, I'm just gonna upload a handful of those (Just search Suspense & Escape and my channel will come up. I don't yet have a URL for my channel.)
Should have a sequel

The movie is far better than crappy sharknado movies and any CGI films with fakeness all abound.
4:13:00
Would be amazing if Peter cushion, chusing 🤔yeah him, if he was narrating, chuson. Chussele😏🙄
Cushing. 😉😉😊😊
Sure, gets the most beautiful woman, then becomes Emperor of the entire land...Pretty sure he just hid in his basement, pretending to go to this "Fantastical World".
Fun story though, joking aside.

You know what if that will be cool 😎 that Universal Pictures Legendary pictures and Amblin entertainment should own the rights for Tarzan Movie like Egar Rice Burroughs’s Tarzan At The Earth’s Core based on the story book novel with the same name with casting Choice like Jensen Ackles as Tarzan lord of the jungle Alice Eve as Jane (Tarzan’s Mate) co starring Chadwick Boseman Robert de Nero Benicio Del Toro Willy as Cheeta the Monkey 🐒 or Chimp Even the bad guys are going to be played by Rhys Ifans Sophia Boutella Jason David Frank Ethan Hawke the Dinosaurs 🦖 🦕 and Jungle Animals 🦍🐘 🐊🦏🦛 🐅 are going to be CGI effect by Randal William Cook Paul Lambert Ian Hunter Tristan Myles J.D Schwalm Creature effects animatronics by Greg Nicotero from KNB Efxs Group Dinosaurs supervisors by Phil Tippett Cavemen/Neanderthals Make Up design by Rick Baker Music By Danny Elfman Directed by Chuck Russell Screenplay by Stuart Gordon Writer by George Miller Producer by Sam Raimi and Steven Spielberg now They will Called it Tarzan And The Valley Of The Dinosaurs (2008) but the film critics roger ebert and richard roeper might think it’s kind of like Jurassic Park & The Lord Of The Rings this time it will be rated R for mature audiences but the special effects people will Win Academy award 🥇 for Visual effects on Tarzan And The Valley Of The Dinosaurs 🦖 in 2008 and it will be from Universal Pictures Amblin Entertainment and Legendary Pictures
Thank you very little for drivel Dominican cane cutter Dave!
@Fleetwood McDuecen25 What do you mean?
Christ you've thought this out?!
....but you are forgetting that actors like Robert Deniro and Benicio DelToro are literal senior citizens currently, (Deniro is 77yrs old!!) and so possibly not the best for a role like that.
That's some crazy stuff your smoking .
@@johnjaleco5683 Or Jason Momoa as Tarzan Lord Of The Jungle!
Listening to this in no way compares to watching the movie, in comparison, my favourite movie is dawn of the dead, and me reading the book is better than watching movie.
Which dawn of the dead the original or the 2004 reboot?

oof, little rapey around 4:22:00, but I guess it all works out :/ XD
lol these european male fantasies DEFINITELY don’t age well…
They tend to actually age pretty well and beat most of the things produced today in terms of creativity and artistic merit. Weird that you go talk about White European males from 100 years ago when the anime industry exists today that's full of harems and eroticizing kids.
Great story, but lots of racist undertones.
You do realize how long ago this was written, right? E.R.B. is echoing the predominant theories of his time, not being overtly racist. We're talking the very beginning of the 20th century. Over 100 years ago. Just enjoy the story itself as a literary work.
Dude I think it's rather progressive, considering the time it was written.
Why are you guys SO upset that someone happened to mention that? Yes, these stories almost always have racist undertones, yes, they are reflective of the time they were written- A time when everything had racist undertones, and totally overt ones.
Like the guy points out one thing and all of you either rush to defend the story no one was attacking, or get pissed at him for a simple and (absolutely true) observation?
Maybe take a close personal look at why such a a banal observation would get that reaction from you.
That was normal for the era though. Burroughs was actually fairly open-minded compared to many other authors and scholars of the time; yes hinting at racial theory, but also considering most, if not all races (including many of his factional ape-man species across his works) as fellow mankind deserving some standard of compassion.
Yea it is pretty racist. Coming from a racist time. Anyone who says otherwise is just a closeted racist
