A first rate swordplay pulp novel from Edgar Rice Burroughs
By Lawrance M. Bernabo
Edgar Rice Burroughs is best known for his Tarzan novels and better known for his Mars, Pellucidar and other science-fiction series, but “The Outlaw of Torn” is one of his best pulp fiction yarns. It was actually the second story Burroughs wrote. Apparently the editor at “All-Story,” which had published “Tarzan of the Apes,” suggested ERB write it and then rejected the story when it was submitted. It was then published in five parts in “New Story Magazine” (January-May 1914), and the first book edition was published in 1927.Burroughs begins with his standard storytelling device: the author comes across the story of Richard, the lost prince of England and tells it to his readers. Henry III of England insults Sir Jules de Vac, who takes his vengeance by kidnapping young Prince Richard. As Norman, the Outlaw of Torn, the young man becomes the greatest swordsman in England and a fearless outlaw with a price upon his head who raises an army loyal only to him. Of course, although he is ignorant of his noble birth, he is drawn to the lovely Bertrade de Montfort, daughter of the King’s brother-in-law, the Earl of Leicester. This romance fits in nicely with the plans of de Vac, who contrives situations in which the king will be responsible for killing his own son. Yes, the ending is predictable, but ERB has a great sense of pacing and you have to remember that he was writing this decades before all of the Errol Flynn movies that would define the swordplay genre.The obvious comparison for “The Outlaw of Torn” is with Robin Hood, but Burroughs’ pulp novel has its own tale to tell. This really is one of his best novels and as an example of the pulp fiction of the early 20th century it is a first-class work. Keep in mind that he tended to do a lot of sequels, and they started to get rather redundant and repetitive (especially in the last half of the Tarzan novels). But “The Outlaw of Torn” stands out because as a historical novel it is unlike pretty much everything else Burroughs wrote. I read every ERB novel I could get my hands on as a kid, and “The Outlaw of Torn,” in my 75 cent Ace Paperback edition with the Roy Krenkle cover, has been the one I have re-read the most.

Like the Princess Bride for adults…
By Erin
Royalty, intrigue, romance, swordfighting, religion, jealousy, honor. This book has everything, it is one of my all time favorite reads. I’ve never read any series by Burroughs (Tarzan, Mars, etc), but after reading two of his stand-alones (this one and “I Am A Barbarian”) I think I am hooked. His writing style is wonderful, it often makes me laugh out loud while reading. If you can’t think of the last time a book made you do that, give Edgar a go!

If only Hollywood knew about this one..
By RDtoo
I read this book in the 70s and it left it’s impression on me ever since. This is a great Medieval adventure story concerning Norman, the Outlaw of Torn. The book tells the tale of the best swordsman in the world, a Frenchman who is enslaved to an English King. The Frenchman despises the King so much that he thinks up the ultimate revenge. He will steal the King’s infant son Norman, and train him to be the second best sword in the world and let him kill his own father. He succeeds in the kidnapping and the child grows to manhood learning everything the Frenchman can teach him. The plans go awry as Norman befriends a Monk in the woods who teaches him Chivalry.It has been said before, but this would make a great motion picture. There is a sword fight in the book that goes on for nearly 5 pages and is one of the most exciting passages in literature that I ever read. I guess this book has been overshadowed by Burrough’s more famous creations, John Carter and Tarzan, but should not be overlooked for someone looking for a great read.
