I just finished Tarzan Alive by Philip José Farmer. It’s an engaging thought experiment to derive a biographical narrative through the Burroughs books (with real world context and scientific explanations), but the addendums are somewhat boring. I get why Farmer used them to ground the book in the Wold Newton Universe/establish the Greystoke lineage and titles, but it’s a slog to read.

Would it be good to follow up with Doc Savage or the Opar books Farmer also wrote?
