Immaculate Blue , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 503min
From the award-winning author of The Unreal Life of Sergey Nabokov comes the brilliantly conceived and precisely rendered novel Immaculate Blue, which explores the lives of four people - Anatole, Leigh, Chris, and Lydia - and their intermingled and unwinding desires. Set in upstate New York, the novel follows these characters as they achieve their aims in lives redolent with loss and hope, humor and sadness, union and alienation. Russell picks up the thread of his critically acclaimed novel The Salt Point 20 years later and tracks the lives of these friends, some of whom not only lost touch with each other, but have also lost their way. Moving, at times shocking, and always memorable, Immaculate Blue points to where the personal and the political come together and shape our lives in unexpected ways. With this newest novel, Paul Russell reminds us of why he is one of the most important voices on the literary scene. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charles Leggett.

Sometimes rowdy, always randy, and surprisingly tender, these tales celebrate the coming together of souls as well as bodies.

Creepers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 511min
On a cold October night, five people gather in a run-down motel on the Jersey shore and begin preparations to break into the Paragon Hotel. Built in the glory days of Asbury Park by a reclusive millionaire, the magnificent structure - which foreshadowed the beauties of art deco architecture - is now boarded up and marked for demolition. The five people are "creepers", the slang term for urban explorers: city archeologists with a passion for investigating abandoned buildings and their dying secrets. On this evening, they are joined by a reporter who wants to profile them - anonymously, as this is highly illegal activity - for a New York Times article. Frank Balenger, a sandy-haired, broad-shouldered reporter with a decided air of mystery about him, isn't looking for just a story, however. And after the group enters the rat-infested tunnel leading to the hotel, it becomes clear that he will get much more than he bargained for. Danger, terror, and death await the creepers in a place ravaged by time and redolent of evil. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Patrick G. Lawlor.

Innocence: Or, Murder on Steep Street , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 361min, (USK 18)
Famed Holocaust memoirist Heda Margoulis Kovaly (Under a Cruel Star) knits her own terrifying experiences in Soviet Prague into a powerful, Raymond Chandler-esque work of literary suspense. Prague in the 1950s is a city of numerous small terrors, of political tyranny, corruption, and surveillance. There is no way of knowing whether one's neighbor is spying for the government or what one's supposed friend will say under pressure to a state security agent. A loyal party member might be imprisoned or executed as quickly as a traitor; innocence means nothing for a person caught in a government trap. But there are larger terrors, too. When a little boy is murdered at the cinema where his aunt works, the ensuing investigation sheds a little too much light on the personal lives of the cinema's female ushers, each of whom is hiding a dark secret of her own. Nearly lost to censorship, this rediscovered gem of Czech literature depicts a chilling moment in history, redolent with the stifling atmosphere of political and personal oppression of the early days of Communist Czechoslovakia. ungekürzt.

The Book of Man: Readings on the Path to Manhood , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1205min
New York Times best-selling author William J. Bennett uses stories, essays, historical vignettes, and contemporary profiles to explore and explain what it means to be a man. Fashioning men has never been easy, but today it seems particularly tough. Boys need heroes to embody the everlasting qualities of manhood: honor, duty, valor, and integrity. Without such role models, boys will naturally choose perpetual childhood over the rigors of becoming a man-as many women, teachers, coaches, employers, and adults in authority can quickly attest. Too many boys and men waste time in pointless and soulless activities, unmindful of their responsibilities, uncaring in their pursuits. Have we forgotten how to raise men, how to lead our boys into manhood? In The Book of Man, Bennett charts a clearer course, offering a positive, encouraging, uplifting, realizable idea of manhood, redolent of history and human nature, and practical for contemporary life. Like his classic, The Book of Virtues, Bennett uses profiles, stories, letters, poems, and myths to bring his subject to life, defining what a man should be, how he should live, and to what he should aspire in several key areas of life. ungekürzt.

Pegasus QWOCTH10 - Dice Towers: Call of Cthulhu Color Dice Tower
"We wanted to make an exceptional Call Of Cthulhu Dice Tower (7), that could be created as a part of Call of Cthulhu Metal Dice Set Kickstarter campaign. The working title for this project was “R’Lyeh”, as the most famous Mythos City. Philip H. Lovecraft wrote about R’lyeh as an abnormal, cyclopean, non-Euclidean, and loathsomely redolent of spheres and dimensions other than ours. As this place is sunken in the ocean since aeons, the dice tower should be covered with tentacles and all the features, that are the proof of staying long under water in Cthulhu’s lair, It is not so easy to design a Dice Tower with all this blasphemous characteristic and make a really usable game’s handout. Non-Euclidean geometry has its requirements. Great Cthulhu has his demands. We did it. It was not easy, but today we proudly present to all buyers real Call Of Cthulhu Dice Tower. This product is made with sturdy materials (MDF), decorated with blasphemous ornaments and designed with a taint of madness. Set allows you to build the tower on your own from separate pieces without any tools. The Call of Cthulhu Dice Tower dimensions: 16 cm (6.3"") of length, 7,5 cm (2.95"") of width and 16 cm (6.2"") of heigth. "- Shop: buecher
