The story opens with a quiet summer evening in Richmond, when a mysterious telegram summons the narrator to the old Raleigh Hotel. There he finds John Carter—still the sharp‑eyed, ageless soldier of legend—waiting as if no years have passed. Their uneasy reunion sparks a flood of questions about his long‑presumed death and the strange instructions he left behind.
Through Carter’s own words, the listener is drawn into the wild red world of Barsoom, a planet of fierce peoples, towering plant‑people, and hidden chambers of ancient riddles. He hints at battles fought for rival tribes, a love with the beautiful Martian princess Dejah‑Thoris, and a newfound ability to move across the stars at will. As the narrator decides whether to follow him back to that alien landscape, the tale promises a blend of swash‑buckling adventure and haunting mystery.
