    Under the Andes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 576min
    Under the Andes is an intriguing precursor to Rex Stout’s scores of marvelous Nero Wolfe mysteries. Desiree Le Mire ran into the cave, anxious to explore, tempted by the legends of Inca gold. Harry Lamar and his brother Paul had no choice but to follow. After all, they could not let the beautiful dancer enter the black depths alone. Others lived there, however, protecting the gold of their ancestors, others now misshapen after generations of living underground. That was why no one who entered the cave ever emerged into daylight. But no one who had entered was as beautiful as Desiree - or as determined as the Lamars. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Harold N.

Instead, they form the beast, a misshapen killing machine that terrifies even the hard-charging wolf shifters of the KSRT, especially after the mauling.  "Jaggar has tragic down," his friend says about him, which must be why his one true mate, Leilani, is also steeped in tragedy. She's a time-traveler. In fact, our boys in Serenity owe their very future to her. But what she has done for them has robbed her of her sight and her sanity.

    Ulemet and the Jaguar God , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 54min
    Deformed and misshapen at birth, Ulemet is ugly in a way that attracts second looks, but seldom pity. Cursed by her Olmec village elders and taunted by her people, she flees into the rainforest never to return. Rejected and alone, the young girl's only solace is her small jade carving of Uaxaca, the jaguar animal spirit she wagers will guard her as she makes her way to Tenochtitlán, the golden city of hope. Escaping danger after danger, only to be captured by slavers, Ulemet is forced to play in the ulama, the sacrificial ball game that could result in her freedom or end in her death. Will her hopes in Uaxaca prove misplaced, or will the Jaguar God, who's visited her dreams as a mysterious shaman, finally prove true? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jennifer O'Donnell.

    What Do You Care What Other People Think?: Further Adventures of a Curious Character , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 372min
    One of the greatest physicists of the twentieth century, Richard Feynman possessed an unquenchable thirst for adventure and an unparalleled ability to tell the stories of his life. What Do You Care What Other People Think? is Feynman's last literary legacy, prepared with his friend and fellow drummer, Ralph Leighton. Among the book's many tales we meet Feynman's first wife, Arlene, who taught him of love's irreducible mystery as she lay dying in a hospital bed while he worked nearby on the atomic bomb at Los Alamos. We are also given a fascinating narrative of the investigation of the space shuttle Challenger's explosion in 1986, and we relive the moment when Feynman revealed the disaster's cause by an elegant experiment: dropping a ring of rubber into a glass of cold water and pulling it out, misshapen. ungekürzt.
