Becoming a Lion Among Sheep: 56 Habits to Dominate Life & Achieve Your Goals , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 153min
Get Strong, build wealth, become a disciplined ass kicker. Discover the 56 habits I implemented that took me from a weak, depressed, broke kid to a strong, financially free man. My name is SJ. I'm the proprietor of Ignore Limits and an Amazon number-one best-selling author. I've built a shredded, Spartan physique. I've created a lifestyle that allows me to travel as I please. I've created several highly profitable online businesses. And I did it all with specially developed habits modeled on some of the greatest men in history. Let's roll back a few years... I was skinny, 135 pounds dripping wet, weak, and insecure. I was a loser; I avoided exercise and just about all other activities that involved leaving the house. Video games ruled my life. I'd spend all day and night glued to my computer screen as I slayed digital dragons. I had no drive, no discipline, and certainly no ambition. I was too afraid to talk to people I didn't know, let alone girls. I thought the only way to make lots of money was to work overtime at my dead-end job in a pet-food factory. Deep down I wanted to have the body, I wanted the money, and I wanted the freedom to ditch my soul-sucking job and live the good life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jason Lovett.

Alice Cooper, Golf Monster: A Rock 'n' Roller's Life and 12 Steps to Becoming a Golf Addict, Hörbuch, Digital, 245min
The man who invented shock rock tells the amazing and, yeah, shocking story of how he slayed his thirsty demons with a golf club. It started one day when Cooper was watching a Star Trek rerun between concerts, bored and drunk on a quart-of-whiskey-a-day habit. A friend dragged the rocker out of his room and suggested a round of golf. Cooper has been a self-confessed golf addict ever since. Alice Cooper, Golf Monster is Cooper's tell-all memoir. In it, he talks candidly about his entire life and career, as well as his struggles with alcohol, how he fell in love with the game of golf, how he dried out at a sanitarium back in the late '70s, and how he put the last nails in his addiction's coffin by getting up daily at 7 a.m. to play 36 holes. This is the story of Cooper's life, and also a story about golf. He rose from hacker to scratch golfer to serious Pro Am competitor and on to his status today as one of the best celebrity golfers around - all while rising through the rock 'n' roll ranks, releasing platinum albums and selling out arenas with his legendary act. Alice Cooper, Golf Monster is an unlikely and captivating tale full of wretched excess, life-saving redemption, ghoulish eye makeup, power chords, and five irons to the center of the green.

Joel Rifkin trolled the streets on Manhattan and Long Island under the cover of night searching for a way to ease the intense urges he couldn’t deny. Prostitutes were his targets, and although he allowed some to live, there were many who were much less fortunate. Dismembered bodies were soon discovered, but nobody could identify who was responsible for such despicable acts of murder and horror. Until one night when Rifkin was disposing of his 17th victim, he was finally caught. One of the most famous serial killers, Rifkin has shared some of his thoughts and feelings about the crimes he committed, yet he still questions why he felt the way he did. He is perhaps one of the most interesting American serial killers to date, and his true crime stories are among the most disturbing. There have been few New York murders committed by serial killers, including Rifkin and the Long Island Serial Killer. Rifkin was considered a suspect in the case of the Long Island Serial Killer, and this true crime audio discusses his opinions on who the killer could actually be. If you are passionate about true crime serial killers, then you will absolutely enjoy this audiobook. Of all the serial killer audiobooks out there, this one delves into the controversy surrounding the death penalty and discusses whether monsters like Rifkin should be executed or allowed to live their days out in prison when they stripped that opportunity from the innocent victims they slayed. ungekürzt.

Blood Betrayal: Blood Curse Series, Book 9 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 565min
Saxson Olaru is one of the select, the few, the elite.... As a ruthless sentinel sworn to protect the ancient Vampyr king and the house of Jadon, he has "HOJ" literally inscribed on his heart: a heart that was tragically broken centuries earlier, when human hunters slayed his mother and Dark Ones murdered his father. Having survived the unthinkable, he never dreamed he would come this close to another human predator, let alone a female pretending to be his destiny. Kiera and Kyla Sparrow are twin sisters: humans, living very different lives. While Kiera is selfless, clever, and talented, Kyla is dark, duplicitous, and damaged - she belongs to a secret society of vampire-hunters, and she has sworn to destroy as many as she can. When Saxson's Blood Moon appears in a February sky, and the matching constellation, Cetus the Sea Monster, appears on Kiera's wrist, Kyla knows exactly what it means: The celestial gods have chosen her beautiful sister to be the eternal mate of an immortal vampire - she just doesn't know which one. And it really doesn't matter. If Kyla can recreate the sacred emblem on her own inner wrist, she can take Kiera's place and commit the ultimate Blood Betrayal. When duty, obedience, and honor clash with a deep, gnawing intuition, an honor-bound warrior will be forced to choose between allegiance to the house he loves and the quiet voice within, whispering: "Warning!" One wrong move One wrong choice And all will be lost forever. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric G. Dove. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/090156/bk_acx0_090156_sample.mp3.

A clan war stands between them. Can fate bring them together? After each lifecycle, Catherine returns to the heavens for a new assignment. This time, she'll be born in the Highlands of Scotland, and she's thrilled to learn she'll meet her soulmate. Circumstances will try to wrest them apart, but they must stand strong if they're to live a happy life. There's one drawback: Catherine won't remember anything once she's born.... Catherine is married to Henry Merrill, an abusive Englishman who resents her for her failure to bear him sons. Their one daughter means nothing to him, and though the bairn is sickly, he refuses to send for a healer. Desperate, Catherine ventures into the Highlands alone - intent on saving her only daughter - only to find herself in a life-threatening situation mere hours after she leaves the castle. Revenge consumes Graeme MacGregor's every thought. Henry Merrill attacked his castle and slayed his parents and brother in front of him, and he's intent on paying the man back in kind. Finally, after years of training, he and his warriors are ready to mount their attack. But when he rides to Merrill land to conduct a final scouting mission, Graeme instead finds - and rescues - a beautiful lass facing sure death. The brave and feisty beauty reminds him that there's a life beyond revenge, but everything changes when he finds out she is Merrill's wife. First in a new series, this is a stand-alone novel with no cliffhangers. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Woodson.

In On the Joke (eBook, ePUB)
A hilarious and moving account of the trailblazing women of stand-up comedy who broke down walls so they could stand before the mic-perfect for fans of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and Hacks Today, women are ascendant in stand-up comedy, even preeminent. They make headlines, fill arenas, spawn blockbuster movies. But before Amy Schumer slayed, Tiffany Haddish killed, and Ali Wong drew roars, the very idea of a female comedian seemed, to most of America, like a punch line. And it took a special sort of woman-indeed, a parade of them-to break and remake the mold. In on the Joke is the story of a group of unforgettable women who knocked down the doors of stand-up comedy so other women could get a shot. It spans decades, from Moms Mabley's rise in Black vaudeville between the world wars, to the roadhouse ribaldry of Belle Barth and Rusty Warren in the 1950s and '60s, to Elaine May's co-invention of improv comedy, to Joan Rivers's and Phyllis Diller's ferocious ascent to mainstream stardom. These women refused to be defined by type and tradition, facing down indifference, puzzlement, nay-saying, and unvarnished hostility. They were discouraged by agents, managers, audiences, critics, fellow performers-even their families. And yet they persevered against the tired notion that women couldn't be funny, making space not only for themselves, but for the women who followed them. Meticulously researched and irresistibly drawn, Shawn Levy's group portrait forms a new pantheon of comedy excellence. In on the Joke shows how women broke into the boys' club, offered new ideas of womanhood, and had some laughs along the way.- Shop: buecher
