Permian: Emissary of the Extinct , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 317min
Their vastnesses concealed since an era predating the earliest mammals, two titanic chasms are uncovered beneath the canopy of modern Siberia.Lining the granite walls of the first, high above an orderly reservoir of fossilized eggs, an inscription spanning 85 miles describes the genome of a proto-mammalian species eradicated during the Permian Extinction. In the next, researchers discover etchings of the constellations as they would have appeared across the eons; a global timeline of 10 billion years remembered and foretold by a primordial intelligence beyond our own. Armed with a genetic recipe, compelled to act by the harrowing implications of a pattern detected in the timeline, an international effort begins to return that species from extinction before mankind encounters its own.The human race has only just learned to pluck at the strings of life on Earth. Will the curtains rise on a siren's song?Where will they fall? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nick Cracknell.

Germany Travel Guide , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 40min
The largest country in Central Europe and most populous EU state is Germany. It's bordered to the east by the Czech Republic and Poland, to the north by Denmark, to the west by Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and France, and to the south by Austria and Switzerland. Germany is subdivided into 16 politically powerful states that sometimes correspond to historic regions predating a unified German state, while they sometimes randomly throw vastly different peoples into the same state while separating them from their more similar kin across state lines. Germany has historically been and still is politically, economically, and culturally influential and the largest EU member state by population and economic output. Known around the world for German engineering as well as world-leading banking and insurance companies, it is equally admired by visitors for its old-world charm and Gemütlichkeit (cosiness). Discard any perceptions of Germany as simply homogeneous, and a country of surprising regional diversity awaits. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jason Zenobia.

Serpent's Reach , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 691min
The constellation of Hydri, also called the Serpent, became an undesirable destination during the era of humanity's most prolific interstellar colonization. For Hydri was under strict quarantine because it harbored an intelligent and dangerous alien race, the insectoid majat. Yet human colonies predating the quarantine did exist in this sector of space, which they called Serpent's Reach. Cut off from others of their own kind, they had their own inbred culture and special relationships with the alien majat. Raen was the only survivor of the massacred Sul family, and she had made a pledge to devote her life to seeking vengeance for her slain clan. Her thirst for revenge would take her not only across the worlds of the Reach, but into the very center of an alien webwork that knit the stars of the forbidden constellation into a complex of interbred alien hives that no outsider could hope to unravel, and where most of humanity dared not go. ungekürzt.

Challenge to the Stars , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 369min
It is the 25th Century. The space cruiser Beagle explores a planet ravaged by war millennia ago, now inhabited by hostile, savage, mutated descendants of the planet's original humanoid species. When the Beagle reenters orbit on departure, the craft is shot down by an ancient, planetary defense network long predating the alien savages. The aliens abduct two women officers - the sexy and sultry Maya Terrazone and the bright but petulant Veronica Winters. Colonel Kendrick Landry, together with Veronica's pet telepathic alien tiger named Jones, leads a rescue party to find and bring back the two women. Even if the two women still live and Landry can rescue them, he wonders if his group can survive another crossing of the planet's desert terrain - teeming with the savage humanoids - to return to the ship. More, it will be virtually impossible to repair crash damage to the Beagle with the creatures lurking outside the craft. This dilemma is Colonel Landry and the Beagle crew's Challenge To The Stars... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James Killavey.
