Here are some areas for expansion:

1. - The plot summary could be extended. While articles should not rely on a plot summary, this one is too brief and leaves out a number of important developments (e.g., Aaron's joining the Hare Krishna).
2. - The multiple references to Kabbalism could be detailed and explored.
3. - The character list could be expanded beyond each person's role in the family.

I also believe that the section on differences should be confined to the article on the movie, or at least be changed in tone so that the referent is the book, not the movie. (For example, the sentence "Also Chali, the woman who introduces Aaron to the Hare Krishna religion in the movie, is actually a man in the book" would be reworded to say "Chali, the character who introduces Aaron to the Hare Krishna religion, is portrayed as a woman in the film version.") -- Merope ^Talk 22:15, 25 September 2006 (UTC) (edit comment)

The summary section needs work too. It reads jumpy and incoherent. Too much future detail(spoiler)is given when not neccessary. "Knowledge is the Destination-Truth the Journey"-Terry Goodkind 18:25, 13 November 2006 (UTC)Addicted2learn (edit comment)

I have rated this article as Start class because it has material appropriate to that designation in the supporting graphics; I have rated it as mid-range in importance because while its influence in the subgene of sword and planet is considerable because of its possible use by Edgar Rice Burroughs as a partila model for A Princess of Mars, it is otherwise little more than a curiosity, virtually unknown outside devotees of classic science fiction.
