His works defined the adventure genre in pulp fiction and captivated readers with tales of exotic worlds. In addition to Tarzan, he created the Barsoom and Pellucidar series, blending science fiction and fantasy.Despite mixed critical reception, Burroughs became one of the most successful authors of his time, writing hundreds of novels, short stories, and articles. He died in 1950, but his legacy lives on through his characters, especially Tarzan. His influence on modern adventure storytelling and popular culture remains significant.
