The Swordsman of Mars

by Otis Adelbert Kline
1933 Argosy
Down on his luck Harry Thorne is kidnapped by a mad scientist who psychically switches his consciousness with his double who lived on ancient Mars. His mission, to kill the subject of a previous swap who plans on using ray gun technology to threaten Earth.
More violent than I was expecting, with heads being cut off or in half and rolling all over the place. Not as fantastical or literate as Princess of Mars. Perhaps due to the read of the audiobook it evoked the idea of a Planet & Sword/Gangbusters crossover, but that was not to be.
