Story Overview:
Years after vanishing from Earth, John Carter has embraced his destiny as Warlord of Barsoom. But peace is fragile. The red planet trembles under new celestial storms, and a mysterious power known as the Shadow Core begins devouring the world’s energy from within.

When Dejah Thoris is taken by an ancient cult seeking to awaken the First Born Gods, Carter must unite the warring tribes of Mars once more — Tharks, Heliumites, and Warhoons alike — against an enemy beyond comprehension.

As the skies of Barsoom darken and cities fall into the void, Carter discovers the truth: the Shadow Core originates not from Mars… but from Earth itself. The fate of two worlds now rests in his hands.
