The Mucker

While The Mucker is a relatively obscure novel compared to the better-known science fiction and fantasy novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs, it is highly regarded by some Burroughs fans, including author Richard A. Lupoff, who placed it at fourth place on a reading list of essential Burroughs novels in his 1965 book Master of Adventure: The Worlds of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Lupoff calls the novel "a most remarkable technical achievement" and states that "In a single book it is virtually a catalog of the pulps."
