Well, we were in Germany from 68 - 71, so it was that timeframe.. ;0)Billhttp://bill-booksbooksbooks.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774723552249315498.post-82102827322322107732011-12-03T12:35:31.911-08:002011-12-03T12:35:31.911-08:00Books 7 and 8 were the original series I bought, w...Books 7 and 8 were the original series I bought, when my dad was stationed in Germany back in early 1970. I had moved so many times that they basically fell apart over the years, with those two the only ones that survived. So I slowly bought the other edition with sort of sexier covers while I was living in Ottawa, back in the '80's I think. I really enjoyed the series; that and Robert E. Howard's Conan books. I'll have to post those covers sometime too. Glad you enjoyed reading the Blog.

Maybe something to do with puberty hitting right about then. :-)<br />Wish I still had them. I recall fondly having the whole set of 12.<br /><br />regard<br />B deCaussinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774723552249315498.post-6895108511198702682010-11-27T08:21:34.644-08:002010-11-27T08:21:34.644-08:00I'm not sure of the tv series; there may have ...I'm not sure of the tv series; there may have been related shows. Thanks for pointing out the upcoming movie.

Probably filmed in the 60`s. Could I be right about that?<br /><br />You know they are filming "John Carter of mars" right now? I think it is supposed to be released in 2012..I enjoy stuff like that, so will look forward to it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
