A Princess of Mars - Episode 9 - Chapters 16 & 17

It is the year 1885, and defeated Confederate Officer John (Jack) Carter of Virginia has gone to Arizona to prospect for gold to help rebuild his destroyed fortunes. Strange events will unfold there which will ultimately pitch him into the midst of another war...this one on another planet...and will earn him the undying love of an alien princess.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arriving at the great city of Tharkk, John Carter and Dejah Thoris make plans to escape; but the ruler of the Tharkks has other plans for them...especially Dejah Thoris.

My apologies for the very late upload. Issues beyond mine or my editors control intervened.

As always, I would like to give a shoutout to my editor Graygor for his awesome work.

Please let me know if you like the new intro music.

The intro music is Miguel Johnsons "Unexplored Moon" from the "Expedition Artemis" album, and is used with permission of the creator.
The album can be listened to on Bandcamp here:

Please give him a listen and perhaps some support.

I would like to thank you one and all for your continued support.
