    The Bus Driver Who Wanted to Be God & Other Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 265min
    Classic warped and wonderful stories from a "genius" (The New York Times) and master storyteller.

As with the best writers of fiction, hilarity and anguish are the twin pillars of his work. Keret covers a remarkable emotional and narrative terrain - from a father's first lesson to his boy to a standoff between soldiers caught up in the Middle East conflict to a slice of life where nothing much happens. New to Riverhead's list, these wildly inventive, uniquely humane stories are for fans of Etgar Keret's inimitable style and fans of transforming, brilliant fiction. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Deed , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 644min
    Before her Argeneau vampire family paranormal romance novels made her a New York Times best-selling superstar, Lynsay Sands did The Deed.

The lady, left shockingly unprepared, finds herself promised to a handsome, landless knight, and misunderstandings, missteps, and (of course) passion ensue. The first of her more than 30 historical romance novels and anthologies known for their wonderfully humorous edge, The Deed is a delightful treat for confirmed Sands fans as well as for listeners who appreciate the early novels of Julie Garwood. ungekürzt.

    A Kind Man , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 267min
    Tommy Carr was a kind man; Eve had been able to tell that after half an hour of knowing him. There had never been a day when he had not shown her some small kindness. The birth of a daughter, Jeannie Eliza, crowns the young couple’s happiness - just as her shockingly early death casts them low. But they do not need to talk about Jeannie because she remains with them, and their love does not change. In some ways it is no wonder that one of them falls ill, for grief takes its toll, and one Christmas even Eve’s sister Miriam is remarking that Tommy looks unwell. But what happens next is entirely unexpected, not least for the kind man. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Maggie Ollerenshaw.

    Knight's Caress , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 617min
    The conquering Normans have taken everything from Tedric of Woodrose; murdered his father, kidnapped his sister, and stolen his keep and land. But Tedric's perfect plan for vengeance is to take his own captive: Amberlie de Fontaine, a Norman beauty and the new lady of his former property. Once he abducts her, Tedric has no qualms about stealing a fiery kiss or two from this dark and enchanting hostage. Amberlie knows she should despise Tedric. It was almost certainly Tedric who killed her husband in one of his many attempts to regain his land. But the Saxon warrior is not the savage she expected. And shockingly, it's not hate but passion that she feels in his presence, emotions that stir her as never before. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Elaine Claxton.

    The California Gold Rush and the Coming of the Civil War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 603min
    In this revelatory study, award-winning historian Leonard L. Richards outlines the links between the Gold Rush and the Civil War. Richards explains that Southerners envisioned California as a new market for slaves who could dig for gold, schemed to tie California to the South via railroad, and imagined splitting off the state's southern half as a slave state. We learn how the Gold Rush influenced other regional and national squabbles, and we meet renegade New York Democrat David Broderick, who became a force in San Francisco politics in 1849, and his archrival, William Gwin, a major Mississippi slaveholder. Richards recounts the political battles and the fiery California feuds, duels, and, perhaps, outright murders as the state came shockingly close to being divided in two. ungekürzt. Language: English.
