Uprising: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1205min
When impoverished, disheartened, poorly educated, but well-armed aboriginal young people find a modern revolutionary leader, they rally with a battle cry of "Take Back the Land!" Theirs is a fight to right the wrongs inflicted on them by "the white settlers." They know they are too small to take on the entire country, but they don't need to. Over a few tension-filled days as the battles rages over abundant energy resources, the frantic prime minister can only watch as the insurrection paralyzes the country. But when energy-dependent Americans discover the southward flow of Canadian hydroelectricity, oil, and natural gas is halted, they do not remain passive. Although none of the country's leaders see it coming, the shattering consequences unfold with the same plausible harmony by which quiet aboriginal protests decades ago became the eerie premonitions of today's stand-offs and "days of action." ungekürzt.

The Worst Journey in the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1206min
This gripping story of courage and achievement is the account of Robert Falcon Scott's last fateful expedition to the Antarctic, as told by surviving expedition member Apsley Cherry-Garrard. Cherry-Garrard, whom Scott lauded as a tough, efficient member of the team, tells of the journey from England to South Africa and southward to the ice floes. From there began the unforgettable polar journey across a forbidding and inhospitable region. On November 12, 1912, in arctic temperatures, the author, in a search party, found the bodies of Scott and his companions along with poignant last notebook entries, some of them recorded in this work. Among Apsley Cherry-Garrard's friends and admirers were John Galsworthy, H.G. Wells, Arnold Bennett, and Bernard Shaw. His background in the arts and humanities makes The Worst Journey in the World stand out as a literary accomplishment as well as a classic in the annals of exploration. ungekürzt. Language: English.

After the devastating battle at the Tower of Charm, Croaker leads the greatly diminished Black Company south, in search of the lost Annals.

Every step of the way, the Company is hounded by shadowy figured and carrion-eating crows. As they march every southward, through bug infested jungle; rivers dense with bloodthirsty pirates; and cities, dead and living, haunted by the passage of the Company north, their numbers grow until they are thousands strong. But always they are watched by the Shadowmasters, a deadly new enemy. They are twisted creatures that deal in darkness and death, powerful, shadowy creatures bent on smothering the world in their foul embrace. This is the first round in a deadly game, a game that the Black Company cannot hope to win. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Marc Vietor.

Plea to the Warrior Princess: The Princess Tales Trilogy, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 518min
Thaddeus raised a finger toward the distant prison cell. “No doubt the barbarian son of Thor is watching, waiting to see if the princess will accept the annulment of their marriage and set him free. And surely, he must know that if she does not set him free, then she has sentenced him to death and has doomed her own body to be burned at the stake.”Stillness fell over the gathered crowd of Roman citizens. Colesia straightened against the iron stake where she was bound and stared southward. She recalled feeling the presence of Zarkanis as he beheld her from his barred chamber within the Pithranian dungeon; and although she could not see him now, her soul bore witness to his gaze. Plea to the Warrior Princess is the third book in a trilogy beginning with Princess Vayle and followed by Tale of the Vanished Princess. It features a breathtaking consummation to the saga woven through the narration of the first two novels. All three novels proffer unique and creative medieval fantasy and romance, packed with intrigue and adventure. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sarah Allyn Althen.

The Magic Necklace of Al-Andalus: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 698min
The Magic Necklace of Al-Andalus is a historical fantasy novel. The historical part occurs, with one Roman digression, in Spain during the nearly 800 years of the Arab presence from their initial tidal-wave invasion in 711 to their expulsion in 1492. The Arab tide receded southward but then remained largely in place for several centuries. Al-Andalus refers to these Arab-ruled areas in which the Arabs, Muslims, tolerated and often even welcomed Christians and Jews. Religion is important in the development of the four main characters, Cass, Thea, and Alan, teenagers in Philadelphia in 1951, and Sebastian, the young officer of the Queen’s Guard in Spain in 1491. Religion is also one of the ingredients in the interactions of secondary characters, some of whom are historical. The Magic Necklace and its resident sprite, the Djini Maeden, are the fantasy part of the novel. They spirit the characters off to key times and places of Al-Andalus. As they discover the nature of the Necklace and Maeden, the main characters realize that they have been chosen. They are on a perilous quest affecting themselves and others. ungekürzt.
