    La Casita de Esperanza
    When Esperanza and her family arrive in the United States from Cuba, they buy a little house, una casita. It may be small, but they soon prove that there's room enough to share with a whole community. "It was a little house. Una casita . . . It was small. It smelled like old wet socks. . . But even though they were far from home, The family was together." As Esperanza and her family settle into their new house, they all do their part to make it a home, working multiple jobs and doing chores to pitch in. When Mami's sister Conchita comes to stay with them, she helps other families by taking care of their children during the day. Together they turn the house into a place where other new immigrants can help one another and feel accepted. Esperanza is always the first to welcome them, making sure that la casita offers a home for those who don't have a place to go. It's a safe place in a new land. Terry Catasus Jennings first came from Cuba to the U.S. in 1961, when she was twelve years old. With Una Casita de Esperanza, she tells an inspiring, semi-autobiographical story of how immigrants can help each other find their footing in a new country.

    Tales from the Old Karoo , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 514min
    'Griet approached the house via the kitchen and poured the potion into a glass, put it on a tray, and brought it into the hall. She offered it to the doctor with her characteristic little Victorian curtsy. He smelled it - wonderful herbal scent. But what, he thought for a moment, if it’s poisonous?'First published in 1989, Guy Butler’s Tales from the Old Karoo is considered to be one of the classics of South African literature. In celebration of the author’s birth in 1918, this centenary issue is newly packaged and designed to appeal to a modern audience.  The short stories in this collection are all set in the old Karoo - in a place and time before tarred roads, television and the internet replaced horse-drawn carriages, steam-engine trains and fireside storytelling. In his characteristically dry, humorous style, Guy Butler captures the essence of the people and landscape of the Karoo. It is a collection of delightful yarns and reminiscences about real ghosts, imaginary people, stubborn farm animals and events that never happened - stories so strange they can only be true. ungekürzt.

According to our legend a young female vampire ancestor of mine named Nola; was hunting humans one rainy night when she spotted a beautiful gray stone fountain. The fountain was sitting on the grass and it was surrounded by arched stone columns that formed a circle.

She picked up the silver pitcher that was resting on the grass, and used it to retrieve some of it. After having the first sip she confirmed it was fresh blood.

    Through the Window of the Secret Place, the King shows Seeker and his friends the Land of Darkness. They see a child called NoName who is being held captive by two terribly disgusting dragons: Anger and Abuse. The King gives Seeker the Armor of Light and sends him to bring NoName...out of the Darkness and into the light! Suddenly, the air became cool, the sky darkened, and as if appearing from nowhere, the dragons came raging up the hill toward the two boys. And it was then that Seeker realized he had forgotten to put on the Armor of Light.... The fiery green breath of Anger and Abuse smelled as though they had never, ever brushed their teeth, and their breath burned Seeker's heart as they snarled past him toward NoName. They tightened the chains with a determined pull, and then, with terrifying fierceness, the dragons roared at Seeker. Seeker closed his eyes tightly and cried, King! King, please help me! I'm so sorry for not putting on my armor.... "Then put it on now!" said a familiar voice. Seeker wheeled around in surprise. There, in the middle of the Darkness, stood the King. ungekürzt.

With "one of the most arresting first sentences in contemporary writing" (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution), Robert McCammon unfurls his visionary masterpiece of survival, redemption, and the astonishing transformations love can create.

    Field of Prey: Lucas Davenport, Book 24 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 678min
    The extraordinary new Lucas Davenport thriller from number-one New York Times best-selling author and Pulitzer Prize winner John Sandford. The night after the fourth of July, Layton Carlson, Jr., of Red Wing, Minnesota, finally got lucky. And unlucky. He’d picked the perfect spot to lose his virginity to his girlfriend, an abandoned farmyard in the middle of cornfields: nice, private, and quiet. The only problem was...something smelled bad - like, really bad. He mentioned it to a county deputy he knew, and when the cop took a look, he found a body stuffed down a cistern. And then another, and another. By the time Lucas Davenport was called in, the police were up to 15 bodies and counting. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, when Lucas began to investigate, he made some disturbing discoveries of his own. The victims had been killed over a great many years, one every summer, regular as clockwork. How could this have happened without anybody noticing? Because one thing was for sure: The killer had to live close by. He was probably even someone they saw every day.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Richard Ferrone.
