ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Hey — I’m KC.
Every bookstore has that back corner. Cracked spines. Faded covers. Books that once kept people up all night… then quietly got left behind.
Every episode, I pull one off the shelf and tell it to you out loud. Fantasy, horror, sci-fi, romance — if it’s old and it’s good, it belongs here.
Get comfortable. These stories still hold up.

The door that ended our last chapter is finally about to open again — and John Carter is not the only one who’s been waiting for it. What follows is a chase across the most hostile territory on the entire planet, and the conclusion of everything this saga’s been building toward.
Ten years. That’s how long John Carter spent back on Earth, staring at the night sky, waiting for Mars to call him home again.
