James Allen St. John Signature
J. ALLEN ST. JOHN ART GALLERY
As the great thoat and his rider hurtled past, Carthoris swung his long-sword in a mighty cut.Another figure sprang from a cluster of dense foliage.
For but an instant the searchlight halted upon Thuvia of Ptarth.With a savage cry of triumph, Thar Ban disappeared down the black canyon of the Avenue of Quays.
Between them and the city raged a terrific battle.The man turned dreamy eyes sleepily upon them.
A steel blade pierced the very center of his heart.I prefer to die standing, she replied.
The jeddak of Lothar sank senseless to the marble floor.Stay, my chieftain, Stay -- I love you!
