One of the great talents possessed by the sci-fi-adventure novelist Edgar Rice Burroughs was the effortless creation of elegant, illustrative, poetic – in all ways perfect – names for his fantastic characters, places, creatures.
Here are ten of his best:
- Banth
- Barsoom
- Dejah Thoris
- Kerchak
- Mahar
- Pellucidar
- Phutra
- Sabor
- Tars Tarkas
- Tarzan
