A Higher Call: The Incredible True Story of Heroism and Chivalry During World War Two , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 801min
Four days before Christmas 1943, a badly damaged American bomber struggled to fly over wartime Germany. At its controls was a 21-year-old pilot. Suddenly, a German Messerschmitt fighter pulled up on his tail. Worse, the German pilot was an ace, a man able to destroy the American bomber in the squeeze of a trigger. What happened next would later be called 'the most incredible encounter between enemies in World War II.' This is the true story of the two pilots whose lives collided in the skies that day: 2nd Lieutenant Charlie Brown, a farm boy from West Virginia, and 2nd Lieutenant Franz Stigler, a former airline pilot from Bavaria who sought to avoid fighting in World War II. What happened between them was later classified 'top secret.' It was an act that Franz could never mention or else face a firing squad. It was an encounter that would haunt both Charlie and Franz for forty years... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robertson Dean.

Thunder at Twilight: Vienna 1913/1914 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 675min
Thunder at Twilight is a landmark historical vision, drawing on hitherto untapped sources to illuminate two crucial years in the life of the extraordinary city of Vienna - and in the life of the 20th century. It was during the carnival of 1913 that a young Stalin arrived in Vienna on a mission that would launch him into the upper echelon of Russian revolutionaries, and it was here that he first collided with Trotsky. It was in Vienna that the failed artist Adolf Hitler kept daubing watercolors and spouting tirades at fellow drifters in a flophouse. Here, Archduke Franz Ferdinand had a troubled audience with Emperor Franz Joseph - and soon the bullet that killed the archduke would set off the Great War that would kill 10 million more. With luminous prose that has twice made him a finalist for the National Book Award, Frederic Morton evokes the opulent, elegant, incomparable sunset metropolis - Vienna on the brink of cataclysm. ungekürzt.

In that time, the werewolves, their natural rivals and greatest enemies, have forgotten their scent. They’ve forgotten how to fight them. To make matters worse, I’m now plagued with odd visions no one understands. Oh, and no one bothered to tell me a vampire’s bite would feel like acid burning through my veins. Do you remember when I said I was cursed? My life can’t get much worse than this, right?Wrong! It can. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Meg Price.

Bonded , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 112min
Every year the MM group on Goodreads does a free read event. Bonded was my submission for 2014's Love's Landscape Event. At the beginning of the event, a story letter is submitted from a reader, asking for a very specific story. This is the letter from Tonnya. Dear Author, My soul ached for command and love, and I was lost. Until I met them. We'd seen each other at different times, but it wasn't until the night I almost killed myself trying to lift more weight than I should that our worlds finally collided. What started out as lifting partners and movie marathons turned into weekend jaunts across the city and every free moment spent together, a tension building up between us that left me holding my breath. I'll never forget the night he took control and shattered our worlds, morphing our growing friendship into something more. I used to tell myself I would walk this Earth lost and broken forever, but I know now my soul was waiting for Sir and Pup to save me. Sincerely,Tonnya ungekürzt. Language: English.

A Fellow of Infinite Jest: The Luke Jones Novels, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 387min
A Fellow of Infinite Jest is the second novel in the Luke Jones series, which follows one cop's career from rookie to retirement. Unconventional police rookie Luke Jones is back to work after reluctantly killing a man he knew and liked in order to save the life of a partner he despises. Although labeled a hero by some, he's soon up to his old tricks - doggedly challenging authority in an organization with little tolerance for defiance, irritating peers and superiors alike by quoting Shakespeare at will, and refusing to back down when prudence dictates surrender. His latest challenge: San Diego's cops and citizens are reeling from the horror of PSA flight 182, a Boeing 727 airliner that collided with a private Cessna 172 and crashed into the crowded neighborhood of North Park, killing 144 people. Now disaster lurks in two parts of the city, and Luke has to choose which situation needs his attention first. One could prevent his intervening to save the life of a friend. The other could get him fired - or killed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Barry Kraft. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/blak/006222/bk_blak_006222_sample.mp3.
