Games of Astraeus: The Akallian Tales, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 500min
Past lives and a mastery of time aren't reserved for a select few. The Astraeans find this out the hard way in the second book of the Akallian Tales, Games of Astraeus. The dying embers of book one are rekindled when the Astraeans are forced to step back and reconsider all they have ever assumed about the multiverse. Their purpose is not only called into question but threatened. When this leads to the strength of relationships being tested, some falter while others are intensified. Never before have the Astraeans been challenged to such a degree in relevance, technology, or alliances. The Astraeans will respond, but their likelihood of rising to the challenge is unknown. They will need to learn about their new and mysterious adversary and apply that knowledge in their uniquely Astraean way. They hope to rescue and build new bonds in order to respond and answer those who threaten the noble and worthwhile notion of goodness. Join the Astraeans through space, time, love, marriage, and galactic combat, and see how they answer the perils forced upon them by an ancient and calculated hatred. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Operation Gladio: The Unholy Alliance Between the Vatican, the CIA, and the Mafia , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 717min
In this disturbing exposé, journalist Paul L. Williams describes a secret alliance forged at the close of World War II by the CIA, the Sicilian and US mafias, and the Vatican to thwart the possibility of a Communist invasion of Europe. Williams presents evidence suggesting the existence, in many European countries, of "stay-behind" units consisting of 5,000 to 15,000 military operatives. The initial funding for these guerrilla armies came from bogus British bank notes and the sale of large stocks of SS morphine that had been smuggled out of Germany and Italy. As the Cold War intensified, the units were used not only to ward off possible invaders but also to thwart the rise of left-wing movements in South America and NATO-based countries by terror attacks. Williams argues that Operation Gladio soon gave rise to the toppling of governments, wholesale genocide, the formation of death squads, financial scandals on a grand scale, the creation of the mujahideen, an international narcotics network, and, most recently, the ascendancy of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, a Jesuit cleric with strong ties to Operation Condor (an outgrowth of Gladio in Argentina) as Pope Francis I. ungekürzt.

Delusion In Death: In Death, Book 35 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 788min
It was just another after-work happy-hour bar downtown, where business professionals unwound with a few drinks, complained about the boss, maybe hooked up with someone for the night. Until something went terribly wrong. At first it was just a friction in the air. The noise intensified. The crowd seemed oppressive. Some sharp words were exchanged, some pushing and shoving. Then the madness descended. And after 12 minutes of chaos and violence, 80 people lay dead. Eve Dallas is trying to sort out the inexplicable events. Surviving witnesses talk about seeing things - monsters and swarms of bees. They describe sudden, overwhelming feelings of fear and rage and paranoia. When forensics makes its report, the mass delusions make more sense: it appears the bar patrons were exposed to a cocktail of chemicals and illegal drugs that could drive people into temporary insanity - if not kill them outright. But that doesn’t explain who would unleash such horror - or why. Eve’s husband, Roarke, happens to own the bar, yet he’s convinced the attack wasn’t directed at him. It’s bigger than that. And if Eve can’t figure it out fast, it could happen again, anytime, anywhere. Because it’s airborne.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Ericksen.

So she's marrying the man who should be her perfect match - and that's that. Simon Chase's life revolves around his family's storm-chasing business.

When a Chase family wedding sets the stage for body temperatures to rise and the pressure of Quinn's impending wedding to build, a new reality breaks.

The Habit of Murder: The Twenty-Third Chronicle of Matthew Bartholomew , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 879min
In 1360 a deputation from Cambridge ventures to the Suffolk town of Clare in the hope that the wealthy Elizabeth de Burgh has left a legacy to Michaelhouse. Yet when they arrive, they discover that the report of her death is false and that the college seems destined for bankruptcy. Determined to see if some of its well-heeled citizens can be persuaded to sponsor Michaelhouse, Matthew Bartholomew, Brother Michael and Master Langelee become enmeshed in the town's politics. They quickly discover that a great many other people in Clare have recently met untimely deaths. These killings, combined with the arrogance Lady de Burgh has shown over the refurbishment of the church and the grotesque behaviour of some of her entourage, have created a dangerous restlessness in the town - an atmosphere intensified when yet more murders occur. One of the victims is a fellow traveller of the Michaelhouse contingent, and Matthew Bartholomew and Brother Michael feel honour-bound to identify his killer. It is a hunt which takes them deep into Clare's murky foundations and which threatens their own survival as well as that of their beloved college. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Social Movements in the World-System: The Politics of Crisis and Transformation (American Sociological Association's Rose Series in Sociology) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 475min
Global crises such as rising economic inequality, volatile financial markets, and devastating climate change illustrate the defects of a global economic order controlled largely by transnational corporations, wealthy states, and other elites. As the impacts of such crises have intensified, they have generated a new wave of protests extending from the countries of the Middle East and North Africa throughout Europe, North America, and elsewhere. This new surge of resistance builds upon a long history of transnational activism as it extends and develops new tactics for pro-democracy movements acting simultaneously around the world. In Social Movements in the World-System, Jackie Smith and Dawn Wiest build upon theories of social movements, global institutions, and the political economy of the world-system to uncover how institutions define the opportunities and constraints on social movements, which in turn introduce ideas and models of action that help transform social activism as well as the system itself. Smith and Wiest trace modern social movements to the founding of the United Nations, as well as struggles for decolonization and the rise of national independence movements, showing how these movements have shifted the context in which states and other global actors compete and interact. ungekürzt.

Summary of When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi | Includes Analysis Preview: When Breath Becomes Air is a memoir about Paul Kalanithi's experiences as a doctor and as a terminally ill patient. The book discusses Kalanithi's lifelong fascination with questions of human biology, mortality, and meaning. It then examines how these questions are intensified by the author's own confrontation with lung cancer, sickness, and death. Kalanithi's father was a doctor from New York City; his mother was from India. The family moved to Kingman, Arizona, so that his father could pursue his medical career when Paul was young. His father worked long hours and was rarely home, which convinced young Paul that the last thing he wanted to do was to become a doctor himself. Paul's mother was concerned about the weak school system in Kingman, and so crafted a lengthy list of literary classics which she made Paul and his brothers read. As a result, Paul became enthralled with literature. He planned to become a writer.... Please note: This is summary and analysis of the book and not the original book.
