Burroughs was the creator of Tarzan of the Apes, John Carter of Mars, Carson Napier of Venus, and many other great heroic characters of the golden age of pulp action heroes. Originally serialized in "Argosy" in , "Pirates of Venus" is the first story in the fourth longest series of pulp fiction adventures written by Edgar Rice Burroughs (Tarzan is the longest, with Mars and Pellucidar coming in second and third).

Also it's hard to believe that this story was written plus years ago, as he tells about a trip in a rocket ship to hopefully get to Mars but ends up on Venus.
