Act of War, Hörbuch, Digital, 351min
Near Houston, Texas, an oil refinery belonging to one of the world's largest multi-national energy companies is destroyed by a "backpack" nuclear device. This is just one of many attacks being perpetrated against this company around the world by a group whose mission is to stop global corporations and government organizations from plundering the world's natural resources in the name of profit. Before this group strikes again, Jason Richter is called in with his top-secret high-tech military unit, code-named Task Force TALON. Richter believes there is only one strategy with which to snare his opponents: find, pursue, engage, and kill. And the only way to do this is to beat them at their own game: be unconventional, swift, and brutal enough to strike fear into the hearts of the most dedicated terrorist. Richter must also uncover a mole high-up within the government, who is in pursuit of his own personal revenge. If Richter fails, it won't be just the lives of his team that are lost, but America itself. Language: English. Narrator: Larry Pressman.

Texan rancher Jett Crossman has everything he needs except the most important thing: a family. This Christmas, the only wish the lonely handsome cowboy has is for a bride, someone to be his everything. His advertisement in The Matrimony Messenger consists of his photograph and two words.

Horrormania '79: Memoirs of a Ten Year Old Horror Fan , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 748min
My name is Kevin Doherty and I am a horrorholic.My horrorholicism began back when I was a kid. Star Wars, actually, got me turned on to horror. That movie was like a drug to me and I couldn't get enough of it. I was addicted to it. I had to have everything and anything that was Star Wars. It was through the Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine that I discovered horror because they were constantly publishing Star Wars articles. By reading these magazines, I got exposed to the world of horror and gradually became captivated with the creepy films the magazine covered. The frightening black and white photographs of monstrosities, ghouls, and freaks contained within its pages fascinated me and I was hooked. Because there was such a long gap of time to pass between Star Wars 1 and the release of Star Wars 2, I found horror to fill the void. My life as a young horror fanatic in 1979 was particularly interesting. I had one quest back then. OK, maybe two. One was to acquire a Pressman "Movie/T.V. Horror Make-Up" kit from the local novelty shop so that I could win a best-costume contest at a Halloween party where the first prize was a perm (yes, like in "permanent" - as in the hairstyle). Two, to win the affections of a really cute girl in my class who really dug guys with Afros. Well, buying something for twenty bucks when you're 10-years-old on an allowance of 75 cents every two weeks was an impossible task, so I needed to be inventive and had to come up with a bunch of different ways of raising that kind of cash in time for October, so I came up with all sorts of get-rich-quick schemes and what an adventure it was. So much so that I felt it was worth sharing by documenting my stories in an audiobook. Culled from the yellowed pages of the diaries I kept back then (dozens and dozens of Hilroy notebooks), I have assembled a novelization of my chronicles of the time when horror took over my life. I invite you to join me for a nostalgic look ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kevin Doherty. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/152285/bk_acx0_152285_sample.mp3.
