There is an error at the end of chapter 6.

The reader says that it is the end of chapter 7, but it's really the end of chapter 6.

Hopefully there is time to correct this.

I don't believe there is a LibriVox recording of it yet.

I am overjoyed at the recent developments with regards to the Edgar Rice Burroughs books. As always - an ERB day is a good day!

But there are only a few Edgar Rice Burroughs books that are PD that have not been read.

An alternative to ERB would be reading some PD stories by Lovecraft or REH.

The Man-Eater, serialized in six issues of the New York Evening World newspaper, is indeed in the public domain. This one was read by Joe Denoia: https://librivox.org/the-man-eater-by-edgar-rice-burroughs/ There are multiple versions of several ERB books on Librivox, so if someone else wants to give...

"The War Chief" is another Edgar Rice Burroughs book that will enter into the public domain in a couple months on January 1, 2023. There are already at least two copies on Archive.org, but currently you have to check it out, like at a library to read it: https://archive.org/details/warchie...

These two public domain Edgar Rice Burroughs books are now on Archive.org: The Eternal Savage (1925): https://archive.org/details/the-eternal-savage-1925-ace-f-234/mode/2up The Bandit of Hell's Bend (1925): https://archive.org/details/the-bandit-of-hells-bend Please speak up if you want to do a read...

Problem w/ PG Australia for ERB is that we don't know what they used as the source for their version. Maybe the book text, but we usually can't tell. There is not always a link to a version that anyone can access anytime they want. I'm sure that is preferred, but that is just not possible in a lot o...

Thanks for the reply! Yes pretty much everything is on PG Australia it seems. There are multiple versions of ERB stories (magazine vs. book publication), so it might be best to use scans of the actual books from Archive.org, rather than reading aloud a page on PG Australia. The Bandit of Hell's Bend...

Several Edgar Rice Burroughs books have come into the public domain recently, or will soon - and have no LibriVox audiobook. These Edgar Rice Burroughs books are already in the public domain: The Bandit of Hell's Bend (1925) The Eternal Lover (1925) aka "The Eternal Savage" This Edgar Rice...

Something needed very much for Edgar Rice Burroughs is his book The Eternal Lover. This was published in 1925, so its in the public domain now for sure. When it was published as a paperback in 1963, the title was change to "The Eternal Savage". A scan of the paperback is on Archive.org her...

Hi - I was reading a different thread on these message boards regarding The Cave Girl and wondering if you were reading from this on Project Gutenberg Australia: http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks12/1203771h.html or from this on Hathi: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=inu.30000077957607;view=1up;s...

Congratulations on completing The Man-Eater. This must have been challenging. Something that may be of use for "artwork" are some ads which appeared in the NY Evening World newspaper the week before the story began. This same small display ad for "next week's complete novel" The ...
