Fire Season

Los Angeles bakes under a record-breaking summer heat wave, and someone is using that as cover. Mages are dying in fires that defy the laws of physics, and necromancer Eric Carter finds himself framed for the murders and hunted by his own community. The fourth installment in Blackmoore's Eric Carter series deepens the mythology established in earlier entries, pulling Carter into a collision between street-level noir investigation and Aztec divine politics. The god Quetzalcoatl looms as the obvious suspect, but the pieces refuse to fit neatly, and the stakes keep climbing toward the apocalyptic.

The full cast production transforms what could be a straightforward urban fantasy thriller into something closer to an audio drama. Michael John Casey, Dawn Ursula, Eva Wilhelm, Nora Achrati, and a deep ensemble bring distinct texture to each corner of Carter's dangerous world, keeping the rapid-fire plot grounded in character. At just over six hours, the pacing is tight, and the multi-voice format suits Blackmoore's hardboiled, dialogue-driven style. Fans of the series will find this format particularly effective at capturing the chaotic energy of a city on the edge.
