The Last Incarnation: Experiences with Rama in California , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 914min
The audiobook The Last Incarnation is filled with stories and reflections about Rama - Dr. Frederick Lenz. There are over 100 stories written by people who had direct personal contact with Rama for periods of time ranging from a few months to many years. Together these stories create a collection of powerful spiritual experiences retelling an ancient story: the search for God and Truth in human experience. The stories in The Last Incarnation are arranged in chapters by theme. It is a group journal, a unique catalog of spiritual growth and development, made up of a variety of shared and individual experiences along the path to knowledge. The power of these experiences remains and is accessible to the perceptive listener. The Last Incarnation stories reflect the consciousness of the individuals who wrote them. Rama served as the catalyst for their experiences; he was the ever-present backdrop, or unifying theme for these individuals’ explorations into the nature of consciousness and reality, and as such, the audiobook presents a few of Rama’s 10,000 faces. Rama is, was, and will remain, the embodiment of enlightened awareness. The full list of narrators includes Laura Jennings, Nicholas Messina, and Becky Parker. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Love at First Fight: Geeks Gone Wild , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 343min
Band Geek vs. Quarterback....One humiliating photo, a stupid prank, and a hashtag that goes viral. That's how my senior year goes from predictable to absurd in a heartbeat. This year is supposed to be easy. I've finally scored first chair in band, my college applications are done, and all my friends and I have to do is survive one more year of high school before our real lives can begin. Instead, I find myself in trouble with the principal, humiliated in front of the entire school, and fighting with my neighbor - AKA star quarterback, Prince Charming, and nicest guy on the planet. And that's just on the first day back at school. Trust me, it only gets worse from there. As #GeeksGoneWild trends on social media, my friends and I are the targets of an online witch hunt. But they've picked on the wrong people and retaliation is severe. As the tension escalates, it soon becomes clear that someone needs to step up and put an end to this nonsense. If that means playing nice with the quarterback, I guess that's what I have to do. Now if someone could please tell my heart that this new friendship is just for show. And the kisses...oh, the kisses. Someone please remind me that they don't mean a thing. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lauren Fortgang, Michael David Axtell.

Ash: The Elemental Series, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 349min
This is a full-length novel set between Windburn and Rootbound. However, to avoid spoilers, the author highly recommends you listen to it after hearing Rootbound. From the USA Today best-selling series comes a glimpse into the life and mind of a character surrounded in mystery.... My name is Ash, and I am an elemental. As an ender, it is my place to protect the royal family at all costs. Despite being the best ender our world has ever beheld, I have failed time and again as the personal sacrifices continue to mount. Lark has been banished to the desert by her father, who is blind to the manipulation he has again fallen prey to. To bring about justice, I must seek out and destroy the one who intentionally wields her powers to bring pain to my people. Cassava’s death will finally free us from the dark cloud her reign of terror has surrounded us in. This is what I believe to be true, and I will seek her out with only one intended outcome. The reality, however, is much more complicated than my beliefs. When lies turn to truths, and enemies to allies, can I still find my way back to who I once was? Uncertainty makes me hesitant, but I can not give up. For justice. For Lark. No matter the sacrifice. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Axtell.

In this crime mystery, when Police Officer Danny Garcia and his partner get a call for a disturbance of the peace, they have no idea of the surprise in store for them. Danny has been angling for a police detective job, and something about this arrest stinks - and not just the alcohol on the alleged criminals’ breath. While off duty, Danny is hit with another stumper. A fellow parishioner approaches him at church, hoping for some help with a sensitive problem. As Danny takes action to unravel the mystery, he becomes convinced that a priest at his church is not what he claims to be. Danny is torn between what his gut is telling him and the letter of the law. The detective in him can't let go - even when it threatens his job, and in spite of his girlfriend's insistence that he stay out of it. His Chief is warning him off as well. Danny is left with two unlikely allies - his young, smart ass cop partner; and his estranged, alcoholic brother. Things really go south for Danny after he and his partner are involved in a fatal shooting, but in this mystery thriller, this may just provide the opportunity Danny needs to go after the suspects everyone is telling him to leave alone. ungekürzt.

The Black Bullet , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 597min
Glenda Lawson believes her husband was the only US serviceman shot and killed on American soil during World War II. But in 1945, investigators ruled that Billy Lawson died in a “mugging turned ugly.” Sean O’Brien is learning the ropes of commercial fishing when he gets his anchor caught on something underwater. He discovers a German U-boat partially buried in sand, and inside is a frightening cargo. The media pick up the story, and a 35-year-old woman who has a haunting tale visits O’Brien. Her grandfather, Billy Lawson, was fishing one night on a Florida beach when he saw something very disturbing. The Black Bullet is a thriller that combines an unsolved murder from 1945 and a modern-day discovery connected to America’s entry into nuclear weapons, the Manhattan Project. The last thing Sean O’Brien wants is to investigate a 67-year-old murder. But Billy Lawson’s granddaughter and his cancer-stricken widow are desperate for closure. For O’Brien to bring it to them he has to pry the lid off a secret buried with the Manhattan Project. It’s information that got Billy Lawson killed, and O’Brien soon learns the old murder and his new discovery at the bottom of the sea are inextricably knotted. O’Brien is thrust into a world where nothing is as it appears, and everything is riding on a secret Billy Lawson took to his grave. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael David Axtell.
