Why has it brought a flying tepui mountaintop home from the stars, and sent investigators into the orbital habitats floating above Earth? How is it connected to a "living fossil" fungus of great entheogenic powers? Or to a dead madman? Or to the fate of a planet overpopulated, hypermediated, corporate dominated, and heat-gas insulated?

    In Our Friends from Frolix 8, the world is run by an elite few. And what determines whether one is part of the elite isn’t wealth or privilege, but brains. As children, every citizen of Earth is tested; some are found to be super-smart New Men and some are Unusuals with various psychic powers. The vast majority are Undermen, performing menial jobs in an overpopulated world. Nick Appleton is an Underman, content to eke out an existence as a tire regroover. But after his son is classified as an Underman, Appleton begins to question the hierarchy. Strengthening his resolve, and energizing the resistance movement, is news that the great resistance leader Thors Provoni is returning from a trip to the farthest reaches of space. And he’s brought help: a giant, indestructible alien. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nick Podehl. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/brll/004869/bk_brll_004869_sample.mp3.

    Why are Homo sapiens a suicidal species?Why do people bring innocent children into this violent, overpopulated world?Why do people ignore the mounting evidence of environmental collapse?Why is humanity courting its own extinction? In addressing these questions, Field Guide to a New Species identifies two species of human Homo sapiens, which have been around for the last seventy thousand years or so, and Homo veritas, which are just evolving into being. The guide also explores two intermediate types, Rebels and Seekers, thus delineating four categories of human beings, each in its own place on the evolutionary path to consciousness. The guide investigates how trauma and truth affect the behavior, attitudes, and sustainability of each and, in so doing, provides the listener with a self-reflective tool for personal evolution. ungekürzt.
