THE DARK RAZOR CHRONICLES STREAMCAST

Mike Carmel

The Dark Razor Chronicles A fantasy–science fiction podcast series The Dark Razor Chronicles is a genre-defying saga of magic, ancient technology, gods, monsters, oaths, and war—a sweeping fantasy–science fiction podcast adapted from a twelve-novel series over forty years in the making. This is a world where nothing stays buried. Not memory. Not power. Not the past. Forged before history, the Costa Novacula—the Dark Razor—is a soul-reactive weapon with hidden potential. It is not cursed. It does not thirst. It waits. Some believe it judges the worthy. Others believe it simply reveals the truth. Throughout the ages of humanity’s greatest empires, its greatest leaders, discoveries, and weapons—it was there. The story begins with: Sharael Maldeen — a woman betrayed, bent to task, Magis of the White Circle. Cullen Aven — sworn to an oath his family no longer remembers, bound by loyalty and guilt, drawn toward something he cannot name. They are searching for truth. Tangled in time. Hunted. Marked. Remembered. Their fates are intertwined by something older than magic—older than time. What to Expect This podcast is a chapter-by-chapter audio adaptation by the original author, Mike Carmel, and supported by immersive production. All writing and storytelling are original works by the author. Proofreading and formatting were completed with AI assistance, and portions of the audio were generated using ElevenLabs Technology. It blends high fantasy emotion with speculative science fiction scale, featuring: Magic and swordplay Time travel and ancient machines Werewolves and monsters Gods, demons, and hunters Emotionally rich, character-driven storytelling

  1. EPISODE 27

    The Oath Taken (S05E09)

    Finale - The Razor’s hiss comes before the trouble does; I keep my hand near steel and my eyes on the crowd as old rules wake hungry. Sharael carries centuries in her bones and the White Circle’s expectations in her amulet—we carry her and whatever the Razor decides to name rightful. I hold position between a relic that judges intent and a city that remembers blood. In Marta’s house and down the boardwalk, rumours, challengers, and men who smell the Dark Razor gather; Cair, Shawn, DagGar, and Terrance all test the edges of loyalty. Leaving for Silandria feels urgent and fragile—every step could be a challenge, every salute a signal. I try to keep Sharael safe while the contract-bound sword and the Circle’s authority start sorting who stands and who falls. — Listen & Follow: https://feed.podbean.com/tdrc/feed.xml podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dark-razor-chronicles-streamcast/id1831423259 open.spotify.com/show/6kXMLe2uC8JAoOvZDEsHh2 Explore More: mikecarmel.ca/streamcast New here?
