    Jordan Callahan is determined to eradicate all who pose a threat to Group Nine, the government faction he serves. His next mission takes him to the state of Washington, where he has been assigned to kill the elusive Joe Smith, one of the greatest menaces to Group Nine. A year ago, an explosion killed Ava Callahan's husband and his Marine unit - or so she thought. When Joe Smith appears at her doorstep with proof that Jordan and most members of his unit survived, she's left wondering why he never returned home. When Joe explains the reason, she readily agrees to accompany him to Washington. With the help of the rest of Jordan's unit - Brody, Lucas, Garrett, Zachary, and Ruben - Ava hopes to reclaim the life she and Jordan once shared and rekindle the love she thought she'd lost forever. A series of shocking events lead to Jordan being apprehended, but he has no recollection of his past, including his life with Ava. By using less than conventional means of recovering his memories, they discover the truth behind what really happened to Jordan, as well as the suppressed supernatural ability he was left with after the explosion. ungekürzt.

    En tant qu'ancien agent des services secrets américains, j'ai l'habitude de risquer ma vie dans le cadre de mes missions. Ayant quitté la capitale des États-Unis pour refaire ma vie à Pittsburgh, les compétences que j'ai accumulées durant mes fonctions à Washington font de moi un atout de taille pour l'équipe de Jameson Security Force.

    Terror Tales, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 462min
    Among fans of classic pulp fiction, aficionados of supernatural stories consider Popular Publications' Terror Tales, the magazine, for people who found the Lovecraftian stories in Weird Tales too tame and Universal's classic monsters too Hollywood! Between 1934 and 1941, Terror Tales and its legion of unholy authors spewed forth an unremitting litany of horror, terror, torment, and torture - all directed at ordinary American couples faced with supernatural menaces torn from their deepest, darkest nightmares. Think Scream during the Great Depression. We have selected seven of the most compelling stories torn from the pages of Terror Tales for this sampler from hell. In Paul Ernst's horrific "The Mummy Maker", an innocent woman faces the fearsome fate of being mummified alive! Norvell Page's disquieting "Accursed Thirst" takes us into the dark mind of a vampire - or is it a werewolf? The specter of a dead Egyptian deity loosed upon the modern world comes alive in E. Hoffmann Price's eerie "The Cat Goddess". Asian elementals harass the curious in Arthur J. Burks' creepy "Six Doors to Death". G. T. Fleming-Robert's gruesome "Moulder of Monsters" serves up twisted human flesh. Maitland Scott's unsettling "Shadows of Desire" leads us inexorably to a traumatic climax. Finally, terror and horror compete for supremacy in Frederick C. Davis deeply disturbing "Dig Deep the Graves!" Terror Tales is narrated with appropriate doom-laden solemnity by Joey D'Auria and Michael C. Gwynne. Shivers await! Horrors abound! Try not to listen after midnight. We are serious about this. Not for children! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joey D'Auria, Michael C. Gwynne. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/004802/bk_acx0_004802_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Quillifer the Knight: Quillifer, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1126min
    Williams knows exactly what to do with Quillifer, and it's hugely entertaining. (Locus)"Walter Jon Williams is always fun, but this may be his best yet, a delight from start to finish, witty, colorful, exciting and amusing by turns, exquisitely written." (George R. R. Martin)"Chock full of derring-do, blood and thunder, swashbuckling, and other good stuff evocative of Rafael Sabatini, Sir Walter Scott, and the penny-bloods." (Paul Di Filippo, author of The Big Get-Even)Quillifer - now a member of the nobility - finds himself further immersed in court politics as the outcast princess Floria is suddenly in a position of power with a rebellion stoked by a certain brilliant tactician, in this thrilling sequel to Quillifer.Rogue. Joker. Lover. Reluctant conspirator.The ambitious young Quillifer was been knighted for services to the crown, but was then banished from court by a queen who finds him obnoxious. Now, after a two-year voyage to improve his fortunes, Quillifer returns to court and is plunged immediately into a maelstrom of intrigue that triggers duels, plots, amours, and rollicking adventure. Bounding back and forth from the high councils of state to the warm bed of his mistress, Quillifer must exert every ounce of seductive charm and low cunning in order to survive.Queen Berlauda’s foreign husband brings war in his wake, along with a clutch of officials who enforce the royal will with violence, torture, and judicial murder. A dragon menaces the realm, and political conspiracy threatens the life of Quillifer’s young patroness, Princess Floria. It’s the traditional job of a knight to fight dragons and rescue princesses, but Quillifer is hardly a traditional knight, and he brings to the job an array of unorthodox skills that dazzles his swarm of rivals, seduces their wives, and threatens the realm.But there’s a gre ungekürzt.

(Before Watson), or, as he said, “before my biographer came to glorify me.”Who really was Moriarty?Where did Sherlock Holmes go to school?How did Holmes know so much about the Ku Klux Klan?Was Uncle Remus actually Sherlock Holmes?Did you know Holmes saved both General Sherman and the Pope from assassination?How did Holmes acquire such a rich acquaintance with America?Did he ever go to America?Did he really prevent a Second Civil War?And what role did he play in the families of Martin Luther King, G.K.

    The Secret 6 #3, December 1934: The Monster Murders , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 370min
    The premise of The Secret 6 was deceptively simple, yet pure pulp. An enigmatic adventurer known only as King busts out of Death Row to form an anti-crime group called The Secret 6. The others include The Key, The Doctor, Shakespeare, The Bishop, and Luga, as well as numerous underworld stool pigeons and hangers-on. All are wanted. So they operate outside the law. The work of the wildly imaginative Robert J. Hogan, who pitted his World War I flying ace, G-8, against zombies, Martians, defrosted Viking warriors, and other bizarre foes, The Secret 6 battled sinister supervillains, a Mayan Bat-Man, a giant golden alligator and other outrageous menaces. Few pulp series stretched reality as did this four-issue Popular Publications title from 1934-35. There were no limits. That's what made it a terrific read. If you wanted to, you could call The Secret 6 "Doc Savage lite". The series followed a similar template - a group of adventurers pitting themselves against overwhelming threats. The big difference was that the leader, King, was no superman. Like Hogan's G-8, he was a typical American he-man, not a fearless wonder-worker. King could feel fear, and make mistakes. He was not perfect, therefore the average reader could identify with him, and see himself in King's shoes. The third Secret 6 entry shows every indication of having been inspired by the famous Doc Savage novel, The Monsters. The premise is virtually identical - giant creatures are terrorizing the rural population. Authorities are helpless. Only the resourceful Secret 6 team is up to the challenge. No doubt the inspiration for both of these pulp classics goes back to the 1933 film, King Kong. In "The Monster Murders", we encounter ferocious packs of gigantic dogs, 30-foot giants, and other towering nightmare threats to life and liberty. "The Monster Murders" is read by Michael C. Gwynne. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael C. Gwynne. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/047699/bk_acx0_047699_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
