    Hell's Blessing: The Hell Trilogy, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 695min
    It's Vietnam, 1969. After a Vietcong ambush, Navy SEAL Mel Stone recovers from a prolonged coma in a Montagnard village with no memory and an aging process that ended at age 22. Decades latter as his memory returns bit by bit, he realizes he has developed a miraculous medical condition. What some consider a blessing becomes a living hell when powerful men hunt him across four continents to tear the secret from Mel, dead or alive. He evolves from SEAL's aggressive militancy, to Buddhist pacifism, to POW despair, to the terror of a fugitive - until he reverts to being a warrior - protecting the love of his life. Fast paced, with intrigue, romance, and action, yet lightened by flippant dialogue in the face of peril, Hell's Blessing describes the price paid by egos attempting to tamper with Mother Nature. ungekürzt.

    I Have Waited, and You Have Come , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 283min
    The most disturbing utopias are those which feel closest to hand.... McDonagh indicates how swiftly society reverts to tooth and claw primitivism. (The Guardian)  "Chillingly believable.... Sinister, scary and utterly compelling, it is hard to believe that this strong, confident writing comes from a debut novelist. Read it if you dare." (Red)  Sensual, poignant, and sinister, this is a story of obsession - and survival.   Rachel fends for herself in a country brought to its knees by climate change.  Since Jason left two years ago, she only ventures beyond the safety of her storm wall when food supplies dwindle. Her one contact with the outside world is through Noah, who runs the market. Hoping he might be the answer to her isolation, she proposes a date. When another man turns up in Noah's place, she is intrigued and repelled in equal measure. And when Noah denies all knowledge, she sets out to track down the stranger.   Could this be a new beginning, or is she being drawn into a dangerous game? ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Raising Dragons: Dragons in Our Midst #1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 589min
    The kids at school call Billy "Dragon Breath" for good reason. His breath is bad! It isn't the normal, morning-mouth bad; it's the hot-as-fire, "don't-you-dare-get-near-me" bad. And hearing "Dragon Breath" ringing in his ears, he constantly tries to cool his oral volcano. Trouble erupts when his hot breath sets off the fire sprinklers in the boys' restroom at school, and his parents learn that they've kept their secret for too long. Billy finally discovers the secret. His father was once a dragon! Now that's a piece of news a guy doesn't deal with every day! Billy feels betrayed, alien, lost. When his father reverts to his dragon form, and they're both chased by dragon slayers, he learns to trust his father again, battling the slayers with weapons of steel and spirit. Bonnie, an orphan, tries to find a home, someone to love her, even though she feels like a freak because of a body feature that she calls a deformity, her dragon wings, inherited from her now dead dragon mother.

    After London or Wild England , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 600min
    After London can be seen as an early example of post-apocalyptic fiction: after some sudden and unspecified catastrophe has depopulated England, the countryside reverts to nature, and the few survivors to a quasi-medieval way of life. The audiobook has two parts. The first, The Relapse into Barbarism, is the account by some later historian of the fall of civilisation and its consequences, with a loving description of nature reclaiming England: fields becoming overrun by forest, domesticated animals running wild, roads and towns becoming overgrown, the hated London reverting to lake and poisonous swampland. The second part, Wild England, is largely a straightforward adventure set many years later in the wild landscape and society (here too Jefferies was setting an example for the genre); but the opening section, despite some improbabilities, has been much admired for its rigour and compelling narrative. John Richard Jefferies (6 November 1848 – 14 August 1887) was an English nature writer, noted for his depiction of English rural life in essays, books of natural history, and novels. His childhood on a small Wiltshire farm had a great influence on him and provides the background to all his major works of fiction. For all that, these show a remarkable diversity, including Bevis (1882), a classic children's book, and After London (1885), an early work of science fiction. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Drone Incident , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 194min
    The Drone Incident centers on two men - miles apart geographically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally - whose lives collide in a dramatic confrontation. Fighter pilot Tom (Iceman) Belton is coldly indifferent, even when killing hundreds in the first Gulf War. It isn't until witnessing the birth of his son that he is able to feel, or to show sensitivity and compassion. A decade later in Kansas City, after seeing leukemia take his wife's last breath, he reverts to cold-hearted indifference - at his son's expense. Meanwhile, in Mexico City, 18-year old aeronautical engineering student Juan Vasquez is guilt-ridden after being involved in an automobile accident that leaves a five-year-old dead. Vasquez grudgingly lets his brother persuade him to convert to Islam. He finds peace - until the love of his life and his brother are slaughtered in a drone attack in Pakistan. Juan Vasquez becomes Abdul Mansur, a vengeance-besotted killer, vowing to use his skin color and Spanish heritage as camouflage. The lives of the two personality-conflicted men intersect when Captain Belton discovers the autopilot, not the crew, is controlling his NFL charter flight bound for Washington D.C. He learns that Vasquez/Mansur has reprogrammed the plane's autopilot to crash into the National Security Agency and destroy its eavesdropping capability. Fighter jets and the programmed flight path directly into a violent electrical storm add to the tension. The Drone Incident is a fast-paced tale of courage versus human frailty. ungekürzt.

    His Little Lapis: The Red Petticoat Saloon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 259min, (USK 18)
    Once a respectable young governess, Louise Small tumbled from society's grace after her employer forced himself on her. She wound up at The Red Petticoat playing Little Lapis Lazuli, a submissive who dresses like a girl and offers her bottom up for frequent spankings. She enjoys her new identity, so far removed from the prim governess she'd been, but she longs for a real daddy - one who is kind and caring, yet willing to administer real discipline. When she spies Culpepper Cove's Mayor interacting with his young niece, she knows he's just the sort of man she wants. But his disdain for her and her profession put them in conflict. Letting go of her little self, she reverts to the proper, fine-mannered governess to win his attention. But at what cost? With her little side squashed, and no hope of being accepted in polite society, she hardly knows who to be or what kind of life to lead. Would being the Mayor's wife be enough? About The Red Petticoat series: The Red Petticoat Saloon series is a collection of books written by number-one and USA Today best-selling authors. Each book tells the unique story of a different woman, a "gem", who comes to the saloon to find a safe haven and discovers they become part of a family. Recurring characters appear in each book to allow listeners a continuity as they learn about the women who have learned to bend but have not broken under the harshness that life has to offer. It is a series where strong, loving men find not only entertainment at the saloon but the special women who reside under its roof. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Meghan Kelly.
