I do love the John Carter series. :) Another I enjoy is The Foreigner Series by C. J. Cherryh. Human colonists set down on a world to aid in repairing their ship after an accident in space. Human translator gets embroiled into the political machinations of the native species who consider assassination as a normal, viable part of negotiation. Not quite the swashbuckling of the Carter novels, but enjoyable none the less.
