Anyone else remember the Otis Adelbert Kline novels? One of the Burroughs-type planetary romance novelists...'Prince of Peril', 'Planet of Peril', 'Port of Peril', 'Swords of Mars', 'Outlaws of Mars'. He did a Tarzan knock-off too. For some reason I liked his stuff more than ERB. That isn't saying much because a lot of the stuff I liked then I can't stand now. Just wondering if anyone else had fond memories of this writer. Some of the stuff in his books would fit right in with a 'planetary romance' supplement. Sort of a fully auto needle thrower gun, powder that ignites when it touches water, etc. Lots of princesses with no clothes, of course.
