Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

The world is over in the book featured in today's episode, and so is our search for a story that doesn't make us want to feast on our own fingernails. Join us as we explore the devastation left by wandering storms of flesh and terror in this Kaiju-Horror extraordinaire.

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

Every saga has a beginning. We didn't read this one's, but a great story once started with its fourth chapter and that worked out okay. In this week's episode, we follow a young man's journey to a desert slum in search of transport, his longing to find his true family, and a struggle to bring balance to the galaxy. This story is about the deep bond between his friends, an ace freighter pilot bounty hunter and his hermetic mentor, who teaches him about inner peace and the innate power to affect the world around him, all taking place a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. This story is also not about Star Wars...

Join us as we dodge laser fire and scour the galaxy in search of an original thought contained within this mystic space-bound adventure.

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

There's mischief in the waters. This week's episode features a story about pop-culture's greatest and most influential icon, the Manatee. Be sure to watch your speed as we slog through the murky rivers of Pine Island to discover why someone would murder these lovable seas cows, why such a simple crime is so hard to solve, and why this book was even written in the first place.

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

There is no such thing as Overkill. There is only being sure.

Strap yourself down. Load yourself up. Floor that V8 HEMI. This week's episode does not surrender. It does not show Mercy. It will not use commas. Join us as The Specialist uses everything Picatinny Arsenal can muster to take out the vicious narcotics mob boss Anton Zorin.

Just don't forget to smell the roses.

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

We've been tricked. Once again, The BurnCast has been taken for a ride. The first edition of the Simulated Realities series: Apocalypse Deception, features our *ahem* hero, Brock Blount, an ex-fighter pilot who is en route to being a on-call bug-out pilot for a rich Hollywood fat cat.

But of course, it's never just that simple.

In this week's episode, Kyle Kenze takes us into his simulated reality, and we couldn't get out fast enough. Scrunch up your face and prepare for a deception of apocalyptic proportions.

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

Nearly a century ago, an epic novel changed the world of literature and redefined what was possible to achieve with the written word. That novel was James Joyce's Ulysses. Depth of Reality Unknown is also a novel written with words, and was so epic we could barely understand what was going on in it...

In this week's episode, Milen Vinoran joins the ranks of the mythical Homer with a genre-defining tale that is already lost to the annals of history, and the brave historians of The BurnCast will be the first and only to capture it.

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

A great writer once asked if androids dream of electric sheep...the author of this week's book only asked if they need clothes or not. Blade Runner, Star Trek, and Firefly inspire this shocking adventure of sex-bots and sandwich slaves, where the cautionary themes of those stories are seen as the next greatest leap in our evolution.

Join us in this episode as we make ourselves soft and pliable for the psych ward, and lose our minds among the stars with Jaunts of the Mantis!

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

Ink White wrote a book and we read it, but it seems the translators forgot to! In this week's episode, we do our best to interpret the connection between spaceships and snakes as we stumble through an ethereal world of mistranslated nonsense; or, perhaps, a mystifying masterwork of abstract poetry. We still can't really tell which one it is.

Join us as we leap palms-first through the wormhole and into the bewildering world of SWORD IMMORTAL ONLINE!

Hello and Welcome to the BurnCast!

Some men need a woman, but Dominick Long needs two: his twin Thompson sub-machine guns, Bessie and Belle. In this episode, we bring you an epic tale of love, betrayal, and "guns-blazing" action that will leave you dizzy and utterly confused...just like we were after reading it!

Join us in yet another baffling journey as we step into the sleuthing shadow of FBI Special Agent (and top G-Man) Dominick Long to chase down the villainous robber Ratchet Briggs. Will he put a stop to the corruption in the FBI, make good with his rival Whip Carson, and finally wrestle his public persona back from the trickster newsman Max Jericho!? Do you think reading the book would actually tell you these things? So did we!
