    The Forbidden Dream: Hallmeyer, Destroyer of Worlds #1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 205min
    A golden age pulp series by Nebula Nominee Ross Rocklynne!For the first time since their original appearance in the legendary pulp Planet Stories in the early 1940s, here are the three novelettes that launched the adventures of Sidney Hallmeyer, interstellar agent - one of the era's most trail-blazing series.In essence, Hallmeyer is a scientific secret agent with a license to kill - entire cultures and worlds! If needed or if so ordered, when they stand in the way of Earth's territorial expansion and dream of empire. In fact, it is utopias Hallmeyer is most often instructed to terminate - with prejudice. In Exiles of the Desert Star, for instance, his assignment, as the original magazine blurb announced, is murder. Murder among the asteroids. Hallmeyer had orders to transform small Elron's brisk atmosphere to krypton. It meant killing that last gallant handful of royal exiles as surely as if his hand held a ray-gun.Hallmeyer's charm and saving grace, and the surest sign of his creator's penetrant insight, is his conscience. For unlike, say, James Bond, and long before him, Hallmeyer is aware of the dubious nature of his profession.The Hallmeyer series was clearly cut from such contrapuntal cloth that it is easy to understand why it made a big stir in the science fiction world of the time. Indeed, this two volume audiobook is a major science fiction event. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Kuhn.

    204 Rosewood Lane: Cedar Cove, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 660min
    Grace Sherman 204 Rosewood Lane Cedar Cove, Washington Dear Listener, If you've been to Cedar Cove before, we've probably met. You can usually find me either at home or at the public library, where I work. I've lived in this town all my life and raised two daughters here. But my husband and I - well, about six months ago, he disappeared. Just...disappeared. Where's Dan? Why did he go? Who's he with? Will I ever find out? My hometown, my family and friends, bring me comfort during this difficult time. Comfort and a sense of shelter. I'm continually reminded that life can and does go on. For instance, everyone's been discussing weddings and babies lately. Justine - the only daughter of my best friend, Olivia Lockhart - impulsively got married a little while ago. My own daughter Kelly recently had a baby. Unfortunately, she refuses to accept that Dan might not return to see his first grandchild. My older daughter, Maryellen, is more realistic. I think she's seeing a new man, but for some reason she won't tell me who it is. Then there's Jack, who's been pursuing a romance with Olivia, and his son, Eric, and Eric's girlfriend, Shelly (I think she's pregnant), and Zach and Rosemary Cox, whose marriage is reputedly on the skids and...Well, just come on over and we'll talk Grace ungekürzt.

    Serial Killers True Crime: Homicidal Maniacs, Bloodthirsty Serial Killers and Lethal Murderers: True Crime Stories of Crazed Killers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 92min
    Criminality is a cornucopia of irony. Although there are genes in our body which can determine our height, the color of our hair, and the complexion of our skin, there isn't one that can predispose a person's criminality. A lot of people say that background and upbringing play a huge role - and experts tend to agree. For instance, Henry Lee Lucas' crime was said to be because of his monster of a mother. However, people with good upbringings can also turn into serial killers, such as Jesse Pomeroy, whose parents were well employed and were in a healthy, loving relationship. It's confusing to say the least; the number of factors can't be confined to background and upbringing - there are also the issues of mental illness, lack of education, hatred towards a certain group of people, and distortion of what they believe, as was the case with Robin Gecht who used Satan as his reason to amputate human breasts. One can fear a person and be more cautious when around him or her because that individual gives off "bad vibes", but no one can be truly sure whether he was a killer or not - until the time he was caught. Get this book today! If you're into true stories of some of the most depraved serial killers of all time, then get this book now! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: J. R. Collins.

    Dropped Names: Famous Men and Women As I Knew Them , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 597min
    Rita Hayworth dancing by candlelight in a small Mexican village; Elizabeth Taylor devouring homemade pasta and tenderly wrapping him in her pashmina scarf; streaking for Sir Laurence Olivier in a drafty English castle; terrifying a dozing Jackie Onassis; carrying an unconscious Montgomery Clift to safety on a dark New York City street. Captured forever in a unique memoir, Frank Langella's myriad encounters with some of the past century's most famous human beings are profoundly affecting, funny, wicked, sometimes shocking, and utterly irresistible. With sharp wit and a perceptive eye, Mr. Langella takes us with him into the private worlds and privileged lives of movie stars, presidents, royalty, literary lions, the social elite, and the greats of the Broadway stage. What, for instance, was Jack Kennedy doing on that coffee table? Why did the Queen Mother need Mr. Langella's help? When was Paul Mellon going to pay him money owed? How did Brooke Astor lose her virginity? Why was Robert Mitchum singing Gilbert & Sullivan patter songs at top volume, and what did Marilyn Monroe say to him that helped change the course of his life? Through these shared experiences, we learn something, too, of Mr. Langella's personal journey from the age of 15 to the present. Dropped Names is, like its subjects, riveting and unforgettable. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Frank Langella.

    Noise , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 421min
    Hal Clement, the dean of hard science fiction, has written a new planetary adventure in the tradition of his classic Mission of Gravity. It is the kind of story that made his reputation as a meticulous designer of otherworldly settings that are utterly convincing because they are constructed from the ground up using established principles of orbital mechanics, geology, chemistry, biology, and other sciences. Kainui is one of a pair of double planets circling a pair of binary stars. Mike Hoani has come there to study the language of the colonists, to analyze its evolution in the years since settlement. But Kainui is an ocean planet. Although settled by Polynesians, it is anything but a tropical paradise. The ocean is 1,700 miles deep, with no solid ground anywhere. The population is scattered in cities on floating artificial islands with no fixed locations. The atmosphere isn't breathable, and lightning, waterspouts, and tsunamis are constant. Out on the great planetary ocean, self-sufficiency is crucial, and far from any floating city, on a small working-family ship, anything can happen. There are, for instance, pirates. Mike's academic research turns into an exotic nautical adventure unlike anything he could have imagined.

    The Mosque of Cristo De La Luz: The History and Legacy of the Moors’ Famous Holy Site in Toledo, Spain , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 80min
    “Bismila [in the name of Allah]. Ahmad ibn Hadidi had this mosque erected using his own money requesting a reward in paradise for it from Allah. It was completed with the aid of Allah under the direction of Musa ibn Alí, architect and Sa'ada, and concluded in Muharraq in 390.” - An inscription on the foundation of the mosqueThe Mosque of Cristo de la Luz is nowhere near the largest monument in Toledo. The grand Toledo Cathedral, for instance, dwarfs this modest, two-level structure with its height of 146 feet. The simple elegance of the mezquita pales in comparison to the city's stupendous landmarks. Toledo is, after all, home to the mighty stone fortification known as the Alcazar of Toledo and the breathtaking masonry showpiece that is the Synagogue of Santa Maria la Blanca. Nevertheless, this multicultural mezquita is often hailed as one of the most precious treasures of Toledo, a place that truly embodies the unique, cross-cultural spirit of the city. The Mosque of Cristo De La Luz: The History and Legacy of the Moors’ Famous Holy Site in Toledo, Spain explores the three major phases of its construction and tenure, as well as the riveting miracles that surround this hidden jewel in Toledo. You will learn about the Mosque of Cristo de la Luz like never before. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dan Gallagher.

    The Ultimate Guide to Companion Gardening for Beginners, 2nd Edition: How to Use Companion Plants for a Successful Flower or Vegetable Garden , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 63min
    Companion gardening is just planting certain plants together because they will help each other grow and become healthier. It is said that companion gardening is even better than using fertilizers or artificial ways of letting plants grow because the plants can benefit from each other and it's all a natural process. Some of the basics of Companion Gardening: Tall plants are planted near shorter plants so they could some shade for the shorter plants. This works best between sunflowers and corn. Companion Plants can lure away pests from green leafy vegetables, and they can also attract beneficial insects to help in the pollination of flowers. For instance, aphids are attracted to plants like Nasturtium, this lures them away from the other plants in the garden. You can plant two plants on the same patch which will save you space and time. Incompatible Pairings include planting garlic and onions near peas and beans. Because doing so will stunt the growth of the peas and beans. It would be best for you to record what is happening in your garden via a logbook or a gardening journal so that you can observe which plants are good with each other and which plants are not.
