    When Talia Lyons was just a child, her parents were murdered before her eyes. Offered a choice between accepting their fate and exacting revenge, Talia trains to become one of the country's deadliest assassins in order to kill the man responsible for their deaths: Ian Crane. Luckily, Talia was born with a gift - the ability to read and influence the minds of others. At 16, Talia is poised to graduate from the McDonough School for the Talented, where she learned to control her abilities. Now there is only one obstacle standing between her and the retribution she craves...Talia, herself. Her greatest asset may also be her undoing; while a formidable weapon in the field, Talia's talents prevent her from both shutting off the mental connection she shares with her questionable boyfriend and blocking out the thoughts of a beguiling fellow recruit. But Talia can't afford to have the feelings and distractions of a normal teenage girl, when her life is far from normal. She must regain the single-minded determination that has brought her this far, or it may cost Talia her life when she finally faces Crane. And even after being molded in to a weapon of war, she'll still have to find the strength it takes to pull the trigger. If James Bond and Sookie Stackhouse had a love child with a yearning for vengeance, her story would be Talented, an adventure about powerful teenagers who aren't afraid to embrace their fears and fight for what they believe in. ungekürzt.

    In a time when the undead bloodsuckers of legend have become a shadow of their former selves thanks to watered-down romance novels like Twilight and the Sookie Stackhouse series, horror author C. Dennis Moore returns the icons to their former glory with his collection of six short stories, Icons to Ashes. Featuring three previously published stories plus three all-new tales, Icons to Ashes doesn't shy away for one moment from the bloodshed and ferocity of these killing machines. In "Become", Brian wakes up one night to find his girlfriend Jennifer trying to get into his room. The problem is, Jennifer was buried only a few days ago. But she tells Brian she needs him to come with her, that something's happened and her parents have been slaughtered. With an orgy of the damned that trumps anything in The Howling series of movies, "Become" is a perfect blend of sex and death, written just for the hardest of hardcore horror fans. In "Birth Day", Douglas Neville wakes up battered and bruised in an alley with a severed head belonging to no one he knows not far from him. He's confused and unsure of who he even is, and when the police show up and take him into custody, he wonders who's the worse off for it, himself or the cops who think he's at their mercy. "Day Sleeper" sees a world where the vampires have become citizens with equal rights. Some people still hold prejudices, though, and when Dale learns of an opportunity to move somewhere no vampires are allowed, he jumps at the chance. Maybe a little too quickly. ungekürzt.

    For People with Anxiety, Depression, NPD, BPD, IED, SPD, Bipolar, ADHD, ASPD, AVPD, and ASD Many of us are battling depression, anxiety, mental illness, or personality disorders. We feel anxious, frustrated, and overwhelmed. We don't have the support systems to help lift us up and to help us cope with the stressors of daily life. We want to make things better for ourselves, but we may be at a loss as to how to do so. One of the first steps in fixing your life and your anxiety is to learn how to regulate your emotions. Our emotions cause us to feel out of control sometimes. Our emotional liability and the traumas in our histories are often to blame for many personality disorders and mental illnesses. They cause the increase in the stress hormone cortisol in our bodies, which then causes damage to our sensitive brains and our organs. Most of our parents haven't passed down emotional maturity. Emotional maturity is an extremely important thing for each person to work toward and strive for in our lives. It helps us feel whole and balanced. It helps us to make better decisions for ourselves. It helps us to feel that the world around us is safe instead of dangerous and caustic to us. Many members of the "normal" population were able to develop emotional maturity. However, many of us are missing this key element in our development. How do we find emotional maturity if we haven't developed it since childhood? This book helps develop skills in emotional self-regulation. We can learn how to soothe ourselves. We can get in touch with the inner child that was wounded long ago, and seek to heal it. ungekürzt.

    The sixth book in New York Times best-selling Seanan McGuire's witty urban fantasy InCryptid series about a family of cryptozoologists who act as a buffer between humans and the magical creatures living in secret around us. "The only thing more fun than an October Daye book is an InCryptid book." (Charlaine Harris, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Sookie Stackhouse series) Improbable, adjective: 1. Not very likely to happen; not probable. 2. Probably not a very good idea anyway. 3. See also "bad plan". As the youngest of the three Price children, Antimony is used to people not expecting much from her. She's been happy playing roller derby and hanging out with her cousins, leaving the globe-trotting to her older siblings while she stays at home and tries to decide what she wants to do with her life. She always knew that one day, things would have to change. She didn't think they'd change so fast. Annie's expectations keep getting shattered. She didn't expect Verity to declare war on the Covenant of St. George on live television. She didn't expect the Covenant to take her sister's threat seriously. And she definitely didn't expect to be packed off to London to infiltrate the Covenant from the inside...but as the only Price in her generation without a strong resemblance to the rest of the family, she's the perfect choice to play spy. They need to know what's coming. Their lives may depend on it. But Annie has some secrets of her own, like the fact that she's started setting things on fire when she touches them, and has no idea how to control it. Now she's headed halfway around the world, into the den of the enemy, where blowing her cover could get her killed. She's pretty sure things can't get much worse. Antimony Price is about to learn just how wrong it's possible for one cryptozoologist to be. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Emily Bauer.

    Vampire, die amerikanische Bürgerrechte genießen und auch sonst ganz normalen Berufen nachgehen, wie Kinobetreiber und Barbesitzer - kann es so etwas geben? In Charlaine Harris' Sookie-Stackhouse-Serie haben die unsterblichen Blutsauger das jahrhundertelang gehütete Geheimnis ihrer Existenz endlich gelüftet und sich erfolgreich in die amerikanische Gesellschaft integriert. Außer der jungen Kellnerin Sookie weiß allerdings kaum jemand, dass das Nachtleben Louisianas nicht nur von Vampiren bevölkert wird. Auch Hexen, Werwölfe und Gestaltwandler treiben hier ihr Unwesen. Als ein neuer gefährlicher Hexenzirkel in Bon Temps die Macht an sich reißen will, wird die Lage brenzlig für Sookie und ihre Freunde. Unerwarteterweise gerät auch noch Sookies Gefühlsleben völlig durcheinander. Nach der Trennung von dem Vampir Bill hatte sie gehofft, eine Weile das Single-Dasein genießen zu können. Da gabelt sie auf dem Heimweg von der Arbeit in der Silvesternacht einen halbnackten, anscheinend geistig verwirrten Vampir auf, der sich als Bills Chef Eric entpuppt. Durch den Fluch einer Hexe hat Eric jede Erinnerung an sein früheres Leben verloren. Sookie nimmt ihn vorübergehend bei sich auf und erlebt eine Überraschung. Der Verlust seines Gedächtnisses hat den vorher unausstehlichen, arroganten Eric in einen durchaus liebenswerten Kerl verwandelt, dessen Charme sich Sookie nur schwer entziehen kann...
