"The Power of the Printed Word" Audiobook - May 22, 2025
A put-upon textbook editor discovers a mystical way to seek revenge and gain power...
Every Thursday, Silver Gecko Publishing highlights one of my stories, either a work of short fiction, a novel, or an audiobook.
This week’s spotlight is on a story you’ve seen before, in text form. You might recall “The Power of the Printed Word,” available in 13 MORE TURNS, available on Kindle, in paperback, and on audiobook. We made available the entire story then, and here is the story again from the audiobook. Consider it an early birthday present.
Remember that this comes from the full audiobook of 13 MORE TURNS, available on Audible now. Or, if you happen to have an Amazon Music Unlimited account, you can download this audiobook for free as part of your monthly subscription. (You can also simply ask your device: “Alexa… play 13 MORE TURNS by Kevin Carr audiobook.” You get one free audiobook a month with an Amazon Music Unlimited subscription.)
To avoid too much repetition, I won’t go into the details of the story’s origins. Just remember that it was a relic of the publishing world as it existed in the 1990s, complete with pen-and-paper editing and camera copy.
If you like this story, pick up a copy of 13 MORE TURNS on Kindle, in paperback, and on audiobook.
