    Zomb Valley , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 9min
    Dissension is brewing between the clans in Zomb Valley. The Dactylas, a once-peaceful herd of mystical herbivores, are willing to starve in order to break the curse. On the other hand the Polycerate clan is willing to kill in order to keep the curse alive. Zomb Valley was created specifically for a flash fiction challenge. The challenge was a 1200-word limit about unicorn zombies. Sounds crazy, right? Of course it does, but we all need a little challenge from time to time; that's why I wrote it. Well that and the heckling dares of a 15-year-old. The cover is mixed media and was a gift from the late Tex Henson. The poem "We're Unicorns" was published in Interior Verse Plus Pose Prose & Poems. I confess this is not my usual forte and exhausts the scope of my unicorn knowledge, but it was fun and that should always be at the heart of writing. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Holy Science , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 189min
    The original serialized version was published in 1894 and then privately in 1920. The purpose of this audiobook is to show as clearly as possible that there is an essential unity in all religions; that there is no difference in the truths inculcated by the various faiths; that there is but one method by which the world, both external and internal, has evolved; and that there is but one goal admitted by all scriptures. But this basic truth is one not easily comprehended. The discord existing between the different religions, and the ignorance of men, make it almost impossible to lift the veil and have a look at this grand verity. The creeds foster a spirit of hostility and dissension; ignorance widens the gulf that separates one creed from another. Only a few specially gifted persons can rise superior to the influence of their professed creeds and find absolute unanimity in the truths propagated by all great faiths. ungekürzt.

    Sons , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 838min
    The second installment in Pearl S. Buck's acclaimed Good Earth trilogy: the powerful story of three brothers whose greed will bring their family to the brink of ruin. Sons begins where The Good Earth ended: revolution is sweeping through China. Wang Lung is on his deathbed in the house of his fathers, and his three sons stand ready to inherit his hard-won estate. One son has taken the family's wealth for granted and become a landlord; another is a thriving merchant and moneylender; and the youngest, an ambitious general, is destined to be a leader in the country. Through all his life's changes, Wang did not anticipate that each son would hunger to sell his beloved land for maximum profit. At once a tribute to early Chinese fiction, a saga of family dissension, and a depiction of the clashes between old and new, Sons is a vivid and compelling masterwork of fiction. ungekürzt.

    The Man , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1924min
    The time is 1964. The place is the Cabinet Room of the White House. An unexpected accident and the law of succession have just made Douglass Dilman the first black President of the United States. This is the theme of what was surely one of the most provocative novels of the 1960s. It takes the reader into the storm center of the presidency, where Dilman, until now an almost unknown senator, must bear the weight of three burdens: his office, his race, and his private life. From beginning to end, The Man is a novel of swift and tremendous drama, as President Dilman attempts to uphold his oath in the face of international crises, domestic dissension, violence, scandal, and ferocious hostility. Push comes to shove in a breathtaking climax, played out in the full glare of publicity, when the Senate of the United States meets for the first time in one hundred years to impeach the President. ungekürzt.
