Sir Gadabout is a walking disaster. Voted the 'knight most likely to chop his own foot off in a fight', he shivers in his rusty armour when he has to face the brave Sir Lancelot in a joust. Sir Gads travels with his loyal squire Herbert to the wizard Merlin's cottage to get his ear stuck back in place after the joust, and survives an attack by Merlin's crazed guard turtle. Then, when Queen Guinevere is kidnapped, Sir Gads sets out to save the day!

Confessions of a Serial Biographer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 575min
Some critics rank biographers just above serial murderers. The author of this book, a self-described member of the Samuel Johnson school, doesn't share this view. An account of a life, he believes, should adhere to the truth as the biographer sees it, not to the sentiments of others. This memoir of a professional biographer's life tells the inside story of how he became interested in his subjects and reveals the mechanics of the trade: how to assemble proposals for publishers, conduct interviews and archival research, and joust with editors, subjects, and their literary estates. Other biographers have described their process but remained discrete, not wishing to offend their sources and supporters. This author has forgone such caution. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Swords in the Mist: The Adventures of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 479min
Neil Gaiman Presents: the third book in Fritz Leiber's classic sword-and-sorcery series. In Swords in the Mist, lean times in Lankhmar force brothers-in-arms Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser to part ways. Only after a joust of wits and swords do the friends join together again, stealing the ship the Black Treasurer and sailing round and through The Claws. Fighting sea kings, curses and seven-eyed wizards, the pair set out on their heroic wanderings through the wilds of Nehwon. The late Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser launched the sword-and-sorcery genre, and were the inspiration for the fantasy role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons. BONUS AUDIO: Includes an exclusive introduction by Neil Gaiman. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Davis, Neil Gaiman (introduction).

The Reluctant Dragon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 63min
In Grahame's story, a young boy discovers an erudite, poetry-loving dragon living in the Downs above his home. The two become friends, but soon afterward the dragon is discovered by the townsfolk, who send for St. George to rid them of it. The boy introduces St. George to the dragon, and the two decide it would be better for them not to fight. Eventually, they decide to stage a fake joust between the two combatants. As the two have planned, St. George harmlessly spears the dragon through a shallow fold of skin suggested by the dragon, and the townsfolk rejoice (though not all of them, as some had placed bets on the dragon winning). St. George then proclaims the dragon is reformed in character, and he assures the townsfolk the dragon is not dangerous. So the dragon is then accepted by the people. ungekürzt. Language: English.
