    When Life Fu*ks You Over: How to Get Back on Track in Difficult Times , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 50min
    It’s not a question of “if” life f--ks you over but it’s a question of “when”. Everything might be going great; you feel like you are on top of the world and suddenly you get a phone call from your biggest client telling you that they will terminate the contract. Or when you buy a secondhand car from a car dealer, and you are all excited to take it out for a spin, and it suddenly stops driving in the middle of a highway. Or the time when you are together with your girlfriend having a wonderful, romantic dinner, and you find out she has been cheating on you for two years now. Well, join the club. There is no way around it, your partner, politics, technologies, mechanics, your best friend, whatever it is...somebody or something will eventually let you down in life.But When Life Fu*ks You Over is not a book about feeling sorry for yourself and sending a meteor shower of empathy messages your way for all the hard times you went through. No, it’s a guide meant to help you get yourself out of that negative spiral, pick up the pieces, brush yourself off, and bounce back from a divorce, losing your job, injury, or whatever difficult situation you are in right now. The author uses his experience of getting regularly f--ked over to underline the attitude and actions you should take in order to tackle the challenges life throws at you. You will hear the ugly truth about yourself, and you will be confronted with change, but this book’s only purpose is to help you get back on track and live a life worth living - because you never know when it’s your last day. ungekürzt.

    The Dead Have Secrets: A John Powers Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 334min
    Usually, former Delta Force soldier John Powers is delighted to hear from Casey McBride, the widow of John's brother-in-arms Braden and mother of John's five-year-old godson Ian. But Casey is calling because she has just killed two of three intruders to her Boulder, Colorado home. And when John hears that Ian, under hypnosis to find a cure for his acute aqua phobia, has claimed to be the reincarnation of an assassinated US senator, he tells Casey to get out of the house, now. Within minutes, John tells his Team Alpha mate, Melissa Harrington, that they are leaving Prague to return to the US to put the assets of the security company they work for, Sect-Intel, to work protecting his godson. What he doesn't tell his co-worker is that the boy is possibly the reincarnation of a man that he, John Powers, assassinated. Six years previously, John had been a member of an elite Department of Defense team under its then secretary, Charles Perthweiler, and had been told that Senator Clarence Brown was a traitor giving security intelligence to the Iranian government. He undertook the orders to terminate the senator believing that the order came directly from the president himself. Now, in Washington, D.C., Perthweiler meets with his former under-secretary and current director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Edward Raymore, to frantically ask how a five-year-old boy's claims of a past life can be unraveling the conspiracy that both men have been part of carefully maintaining. Now that Iranian hitmen have failed to eliminate this threat to their part of an international conspiracy, the two men agree to take the necessary steps to tie up any loose ends. ungekürzt.

    The Expanding Case for the UFO - First Edition and Association Copy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 491min
    From the craters of the moon, the jungle-ridden cities of prehistory, the world's scattered Pygmy tribes, and the columns of yesterday's newspaper comes new and thought-provoking evidence for the existence of space life. Such were the words on the original dust jacket of this, the first edition of The Expanding Case For the UFO. First released in 1957, The Expanding Case was the sequel to perhaps the most notorious book in the history of ufology: The Case for the UFO, which drew the interest of the US Navy and resulted in the infamously annotated "Varo Edition". The annotator of the Varo Edition, the mysterious Carlos Allende, claimed to have been a witness to the Philadelphia Experiment. Allende seemed to think that the book's author, astronomer M.K. Jessup, knew more about the experiment than he was admitting, and had maybe played a role in it. The Expanding Case For the UFO was the last book ever written by M.K. Jessup, and it ties together many of the controversial threads first exposed in The Case for the UFO. This special reprint features the original "lost" introduction by noted zoologist Ivan T. Sanderson. As evidence to how dangerous this material was at the time, it was only two years later that Jessup - after experiencing threatening phone calls and alarming synchronicities "too unbelievable to describe" - would be found dead in a park in Dade County, Florida - supposedly a "suicide". While Allende claimed Jessup killed the hitman sent to terminate him, and was able to escape by trading identities with the hitman, the facts remain obscured - like the UFOs themselves - in a most intriguing fog. ungekürzt.

    Ilium , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1781min
    From the towering heights of Olympos Mons on Mars, the mighty Zeus and his immortal family of gods, goddesses, and demigods look down upon a momentous battle, observing - and often influencing - the legendary exploits of Paris, Achilles, Hector, Odysseus, and the clashing armies of Greece and Troy. Thomas Hockenberry, former twenty-first-century professor and Iliad scholar, watches as well. It is Hockenberry's duty to observe and report on the Trojan War's progress to the so-called deities who saw fit to return him from the dead. But the muse he serves has a new assignment for the wary scholic, one dictated by Aphrodite herself. With the help of fortieth-century technology, Hockenberry is to infiltrate Olympos, spy on its divine inhabitants ... and ultimately destroy Aphrodite's sister and rival, the goddess Pallas Athena. On an Earth profoundly changed since the departure of the Post-Humans centuries earlier, the great events on the bloody plains of Ilium serve as mere entertainment. Its scenes of unrivaled heroics and unequaled carnage add excitement to human lives devoid of courage, strife, labor, and purpose. But this eloi-like existence is not enough for Harman, a man in the last year of his last Twenty. That rarest of post-postmodern men - an "adventurer" - he intends to explore far beyond the boundaries of his world before his allotted time expires, in search of a lost past, a devastating truth, and an escape from his own inevitable "final fax." Meanwhile, from the radiation-swept reaches of Jovian space, four sentient machines race to investigate - and, perhaps, terminate - the potentially catastrophic emissions of unexplained quantum-flux emanating from a mountaintop miles above the terraformed surface of Mars. ungekürzt.
