Neuland: Wie ich mich selber suchte und jemand ganz anderen fand, Hörbuch, Digital, 342min
Die Hälfte des Lebens ist vorbei, und es ist noch nicht zu spät. Aber wofür eigentlich: Selbstverwirklichung, Gelassenheit, Idealgewicht? Ist jetzt die Zeit für einen Neuanfang, für ein großes, vielleicht letztes Abenteuer? Oder doch nur für eine Probestunde Pilates und einen anderen Nagellack? Ein Jahr lang habe ich mich auf die Suche gemacht: nach dem besseren Leben, innerem Frieden und einer neuen Frisur. Schweigen im Kloster. Botox in der Stirn. Fasten mit der Prominenz. Überleben in der Wildnis. Sterbebegleitung im Hospiz. Ich war sehr blond, ziemlich dünn und fast faltenfrei. Ich habe das Abenteuer, meine Mitte und mein Glück beinahe gefunden." "Neuland" ist ein einzigartiger Selbstversuch, bewegend und komisch. Ein Mutmacher für alle, die ihr Leben verändern wollen. Und ein Versprechen: Nachher ist nichts mehr so, wie es mal war. deutsch.

On America's newest combat base, U.S. Air Force aerial warfare expert Major General Patrick McLanahan and his crew of daring engineers are devising the air combat unit of the future.

The Man Who Left Too Soon: The Life and Works of Stieg Larsson , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 572min
His best-selling books are violent, terrifying, brilliantly written and have sold millions of copies around the world, but Stieg Larsson was not there to witness any of their international success. That his fame is entirely posthumous demonstrates the dizzying speed with which his star has risen. However, when one looks a little deeper at the man behind these phenomenal novels, it becomes clear that Larsson’s life would have been remembered as extraordinary, even if his Millennium trilogy had never been published. Larsson was a workaholic, a keen political activist, a photographer, a graphic designer, a respected journalist, and editor of numerous science-fiction magazines. And at night, to relax after work, he wrote crime novels. As the world now knows, he had completed his third book, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest, by the time of his death at just 50 years of age. In The Man Who Left Too Soon, top crime-fiction journalist Barry Forshaw gives us a fascinating insight into the life and works of this difficult, brilliant, and multifaceted man. ungekürzt.
