Paizo Publishing resurrects Otis Adelbert Kline’s The Outlaws of Mars

After painstaking work, the folks at Paizo Publishing have succeeded in resurrecting from the literary graveyard the original, unabridged version of The Outlaws of Mars, a classic sword-and-planet tale by Otis Adelbert Kline that was first published as a seven-part serial in Argosy magazine in 1933 and 1934. According to James Sutter, the editor of Paizo's Planet Stories series, Kline's novel has “sword-swinging adventure on other worlds with strange creatures, bizarre cultures, scantily-clad princesses, and two-fisted plot advancement on every page.” Paizo's reprint of The Outlaws of Mars goes on sale next month, February 2009.
