    Playing God , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 952min
    To save an alien world, a human architect must risk destroying it For two centuries, the planet of the Dedelphi has been riven by war. Though delicate, swanlike creatures, the planet’s natives are fierce in battle, and their ceaseless conflict has reduced their world to a wasteland. To save themselves and their world, the Dedelphi have forged a fragile peace and called for outside intervention. The Earth corporation Bioverse constructs a plan to heal the shattered planet. It’s the most ambitious engineering project the universe has ever seen, and if it backfires, the result will almost certainly be genocide. Hired to oversee the massive undertaking is architect Lynn Nussbaumer. Rebuilding the planet will take decades, and Nussbaumer’s first challenge is to arrange for a generation of Dedelphi to live out their lives in orbit around their home. When old conflicts and fresh violence emerge aboard the station and on the planet’s surface, she finds that it takes more than a talent for design to draft a blueprint for peace. ungekürzt.

    Paradox Moon: The First Book of Regenesis , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 457min
    Is there life after climate change?The answer lies hidden on a far moon in a distant corner of the galaxy.Paradox Moon is a cautionary tale of one planet’s retribution against the civilization that nearly destroyed it. The narrative follows the exploits of a marooned astronaut and an indigenous band of anthropoids in their odyssey across a world where nothing is what it seems. It is a stunning visual journey. Back through deep time. As the man uncovers startling evidence revealing the planet’s tragic past and singular evolution.A past that reverberates in the echoes of a lost civilization. Of a temperate world that vanished in flame. Of a dominant race that spurned the warnings of its scientists and perished. Of a planet that turned inward to preserve itself and the wellspring of life it harbored.The journey leads to a mysterious crystal city. To survivors exiled in an ice-locked land, the refugee descendants of those who tried to prevent the devastation of a world. And to the companionship of a remarkable creature.It also foreshadows the evil that stalks them. The brutish descendants of those who spurned the warnings. Who survive through treachery, malice and cowardice.Regenesis is the epic story of that far distant world. Paradox Moon is the first chapter of that story.  And it opens through the virtual lens of a space-based telescope. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Zacharia Greene.

All signs of their former trials are gone.Due to a unique distortion in the planet’s atmosphere, Cas, Evie, and the rest of the crew who visited the planet missed the last 18 years of history.

To find out, they’ll need to find a way to travel without Sesster - at least, until they can figure out what’s wrong with him. But the truth of what happened in those 18 years may be more than any of them are ready to handle.Broken Links is the seventh book in the wildly successful Infinity's End series!

    The End of Ice: Bearing Witness and Finding Meaning in the Path of Climate Disruption , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 478min
    The author who Jeremy Scahill calls the “quintessential unembedded reporter” visits “hot spots” around the world in a global quest to discover how we will cope with our planet’s changing ecosystemsAfter nearly a decade overseas as a war reporter, the acclaimed journalist Dahr Jamail returned to America to renew his passion for mountaineering, only to find that the slopes he had once climbed have been irrevocably changed by climate disruption. In response, Jamail embarks on a journey to the geographical front lines of this crisis - from Alaska to Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, via the Amazon rainforest - in order to discover the consequences to nature and to humans of the loss of ice.In The End of Ice, we follow Jamail as he scales Denali, the highest peak in North America, dives in the warm crystal waters of the Pacific only to find ghostly coral reefs, and explores the tundra of St. Paul Island where he meets the last subsistence seal hunters of the Bering Sea and witnesses its melting glaciers. Accompanied by climate scientists and people whose families have fished, farmed, and lived in the areas he visits for centuries, Jamail begins to accept the fact that Earth, most likely, is in a hospice situation. Ironically, this allows him to renew his passion for the planet’s wild places, cherishing Earth in a way he has never been able to before.Like no other book, The End of Ice offers a firsthand chronicle of the catastrophic reality of our situation and the incalculable necessity of relishing this vulnerable, fragile planet while we still can. ungekürzt.
