Sparky and the Dipshit , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 496min
That Great Bend summer of 1961, when I was sixteen, the world was a Kansas prairie that went on forever. It was a time and a place when a boy of imagination seeking glory [and I was such a boy] could spin a summer of stolen freedoms into such high jinks, such high adventure that such a boy might be in danger of losing some vital part of himself when he cut the strings and moved on. Over the years, I have revisited that magic summer in stops and starts, shared it with friends, then again with my children, then again with my grandchildren. Shook out a sleeve. Emptied some pocket of its boyhood treasures. Anecdotes. Patches. Now something in me wants to see that ragged coat whole against the sky, like some renegade kite caught in a whip of a Kansas wind. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rod Russell-Ides.

Brutus: The Noble Conspirator , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 832min
Conspirator and assassin, philosopher and statesman, promoter of peace and commander in war, Marcus Brutus (ca. 85-42 BC) was a controversial and enigmatic man even to those who knew him. His leading role in the murder of Julius Caesar on the Ides of March, 44 BC, immortalized his name forever, but the verdict on his act remains out to this day. Was Brutus wrong to kill his friend and benefactor, or was he right to place his duty to country ahead of personal obligations? In this comprehensive and stimulating biography, Kathryn Tempest delves into contemporary sources to bring to light the personal and political struggles Brutus faced. As the details are revealed - from his own correspondence with Cicero, from the perceptions of his peers, and from the Roman aristocratic values and concepts that held sway in his time - Brutus emerges from legend, revealed to us more surely than ever before. ungekürzt.

I.Q / Isaiah Quintabe Bd.1
I.Q. nennt man Isaiah Quintabe in den schwarzen Hoods von Los Angeles. Weil er ein Genie ist und weil er als eine Art Nachbarschaftsdetektiv ohne Lizenz den »kleinen Leuten« zu ihrem Recht verhilft. Oder wenn das schwierig ist, immerhin zu Gerechtigkeit, Genugtuung und Entschädigung. Zusammen mit seinem sidekick, dem schlagfertigen Gangsta Dodson, wird er wider Willen von dem Top-Rapper Black the Knife angeheuert, um Mordanschläge auf dessen Leben aufzuklären. Das führt ins finstere Herz des Rap-Business, wo sich jede Menge wunderliche und tödliche Gestalten tummeln: Gangsta Rapper, Bitches, Anwälte, Auftragskiller, Drogenbosse, Big-Business-Leute und Medienvolk. Bald haben es I.Q. und Dodson mit verfeindeten Gangs, schießwütigen Narcos und gierigen Musikproduzenten zu tun. Gut, dass I.Q. ein Weltmeister der Deduktion ist, und gut auch, dass er notfalls genauso viel kriminelle Energien hat wie seine Widersacher. Oder noch mehr ...»Joe Ides Debütroman ist der fulminante Auftakt einer wahnsinnig hinreißenden Krimiserie über einen ziemlich schlauen Kerl und das packend beschriebene kriminelle Umfeld, in dem er sich bewegt.« Janet Maslin, The New York Times- Shop: buecher

Babysitter, 13507
I'm Viktoria, a caring, empathetic and trustworthy childminder with 3 years of aupair experience and one year of babysitting before that. I have minded kids from 6 months to 11 years old and can provide references from families I've worked for. I think I'm a good with kids, because I find it easy to put myself in their shoes and view the world through their eyes. The most important thing in my opinion is to treat children with respect and love, just like everyone else around you, but set boundaries, especially when it comes to safety. And still have fun in the meantime! I like doing arts and crafts with them, every type of play, writing/telling stories etc, but in my opinion it's the best to let the kids lead the way in play and just come up with some ides here and there. Although I am a Native Hungarian speaker, I've lived in the UK and Ireland for years at this point, so please consider me if you are looking for an English speaking nanny as I feel as confident in English as I do in Hungarian. I've just started to relearn German, I understand a few things, but I still need a lot of practice. From my references: "I have known Viki for over a year, during which I have gotten to know to know her quite well. I have been impressed by her dependability and independence, which she has demonstrated consistently. Viki lives with me and my children, and I trust her with them implicitly. Viki has never shown anything but patience and understanding around my children, and is very well suited to be in this line of work." "Viki worked for me for 4 months Her duties were as follows: Looking after two girls aged 8 months and 2 years of age. Cooking breakfast and lunch Getting the girls dressed Having one on one time with each of the children. Doing arts and crafts, reading Taking the children out each day Viki is very patient with children and I would highly recommend her. She is a very reliable and great at time keeping.

Raffles: The Amateur Cracksman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 297min
Ernest William Hornung (1866-1921) was born in Middlesborough, England, and educated at Uppingham School, Rutland. He spent two years in Australia for his health, returning to England in 1886. In 1893, he married Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's sister Constance and five years later the first of his stories of Raffles the gentleman burglar appeared in Cassell's Magazine. More stories followed and proved extremely popular. The first collection of the exploits of A.J. Raffles and his friend Bunny Manders was published as The Amateur Cracksman in 1899. The characters of Raffles and Bunny were possibly inspired by his brother-in-law's creations, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, although they are on the opposite side of the law. The activities of the gentleman cricketer and his associate are highly questionable, but "he never steals from his hosts and he helps his old friends in trouble". The stories are: "The Ides of March", "A Costume Piece", "Gentleman and Players", "Le Premier Pas", "Wilful Murder", "Nine Points of the Law", "The Return Match", "The Gift of the Emporer". ungekürzt.

The Road to Rome: Forgotten Legion Chronicles 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 999min
The third novel in The Forgotten Legion trilogy takes the main protagonists from North Africa back to Rome in the build-up to the assassination of Julius Caesar. Having survived the perils of a journey across half the world, Romulus and Tarquinius are press-ganged into the legions, which are under imminent threat of annihilation by the Egyptians. Meanwhile in Rome, Romulus's twin sister Fabiola lives in fear for her life, loved by Brutus, but wooed by Marcus Antonius, his deadly enemy. Soon after, Romulus fights at Zela, the vicious battle where Caesar famously said, 'Veni, vidi, vici'. Tarquinius, separated from Romulus in the chaos of war, hides in Alexandria, searching for guidance. But mortal danger awaits them both. From the battlefields of Asia Minor and North Africa, to the lawless streets of Rome and the gladiator arena, they face death daily, until on the Ides of March, the twins are reunited and must decide either to back or to betray Caesar on his day of destiny. ungekürzt.

The Adventures of Raffles , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 263min
'Why should I work when I could steal?' Thus speaks A. J.Raffles, gentleman, the finest slow bowler of his generation and a shameless thief. When Bunny, an old school acquaintance, confesses that he will be dishonourably disgraced for writing cheques that his bank will not meet, Raffles persuades him to assist in a burglary. From that moment, Bunny is locked into a life of crime and, fortunately for his audience, recounts their adventures in a most thrilling way. The stories in this volume are 'The Ides of March', 'A Costume Piece', 'Gentleman and Players', 'Le Premier Pas', 'Wilful Murder', and 'Nine Points of the Law'. E. W. Hornung was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s brother in law, but Raffles is the very antithesis of Sherlock Homes - yet still a hero and one that the Victorians and succeeding generations, perhaps surprisingly, took to their hearts. About Assembled Stories: Over the years the national press have reviewed Assembled Stories titles as "excellent", "remarkable", "entrancing", "superb", "magic for sure", "masterly", "wonderful", "a class act", and "a splendid example of audio at its best". ungekürzt.
