Do Lead , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 144min
Real-world leadership is very different from all that the media would have us believe. Forget the dashing swashbuckler - effective leadership is typically understated. It's the myriad small things that make the big things possible. In Do Lead, Les McKeown demolishes the myths that have paralysed leadership in our modern era, then provides new, relevant tools for the job. You'll discover that we can all lead. And what's more, we should. Because effective leadership is goal-oriented, not people-oriented. It's about the person with the right skills putting themselves forward. Find out: The mind-set required The basic leadership toolkit Techniques for dealing with the (inevitable) failures How to get started. Whether you are new to the game or reigniting a dormant passion, start leading from where you are, right now, and make a difference. You can lead. Yes, you. ungekürzt. Language: English.

What if John Henry had a son?Twelve-year-old Ray is haunted by the strangest memories of his father, whom Ray swears could speak to animals.

The performers turn out to be heroes, defenders of the wild, including the son of John Henry. They are hiding the last of the mythical Swamp Sirens from an ancient evil known as the Gog. Why the Gog wants the Siren, they can't be sure, but they know it has something to do with rebuilding a monstrous machine that John Henry gave his life destroying years before, a machine that will allow the Gog to control the will of men and spread darkness throughout the world. ungekürzt.

On Evil , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 304min
For many enlightened, liberal-minded thinkers today, and for most on the political left, evil is an outmoded concept. It smacks too much of absolute judgements and metaphysical certainties to suit the modern age. In this witty, accessible study, the prominent Marxist thinker Terry Eagleton launches a surprising defence of the reality of evil, drawing on literary, theological, and psychoanalytic sources to suggest that evil, no mere medieval artifact, is a real phenomenon with palpable force in our contemporary world. In a book that ranges from St. Augustine to alcoholism, Thomas Aquinas to Thomas Mann, Shakespeare to the Holocaust, Eagleton investigates the frightful plight of those doomed souls who apparently destroy for no reason. In the process, he poses a set of intriguing questions. Is evil really a kind of nothingness? Why should it appear so glamorous and seductive? Why does goodness seem so boring? Is it really possible for human beings to delight in destruction for no reason at all? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Thorn.

From the best-selling author of The Year of Living Danishly: How to make big decisions, be more resilient, and change your life for good. Having spent the last few years in Denmark uncovering the secrets of the happiest country in the world, Helen Russell knows it's time to move back to the UK. She thinks. Maybe. Or maybe that's a terrible idea. Like many of us, she suffers from chronic indecision and a fear of change. So she decides to give herself a year for an experiment: to overhaul every area of her life, learn how to embrace change and become a lean, mean decision-making machine. From how to cope with changing work lives and evolving relationships to how we feel about our bodies, money and well-being, Helen investigates the benefits of new beginnings, the secrets of decisive people and what makes changes last - and uncovers the practical life lessons we can all use to thrive when change is afoot and inject some freshness and magic if it's not. ungekürzt.

Jinx Kingsley, Fotografin und Erbin eines beachtlichen Vermögens, erwacht in einem Klinikbett aus tiefer Bewusstlosigkeit. An die letzten Wochen ihres Lebens kann sie sich nicht mehr erinnern. Alle Welt glaubt, sie habe einen Selbstmordversuch überlebt, als sie aus einem völlig zertrümmerten Wagen geborgen wurde. Dies alles ist im Nebel ihrer Amnesie verschwunden, doch Jinx ist sicher, dass sie ihrem Leben niemals ein Ende setzen wollte. Es gibt allerdings Ereignisse in Jinx' Vergangenheit, die dunkle Schatten auf ihre irritierende Lage werfen:Ihr erster Ehemann Russell kam durch einen Mord ums Leben; die Umstände des Verbrechens, das bereits zehn Jahre zurückliegt, konnten nie ganz geklärt werden. Jinx versucht verzweifelt, die Lähmung ihres Erinnerungsvermögens zu überwinden. Zusammen mit dem Arzt und Therapeuten Alan Protheroe begibt sie sich auf eine Reise in die eigene Vergangenheit, eine Reise, die auf unbekanntes Terrain führt, in dunkle Kammern, aber auch in gleißend hell ausgeleuchtete Räume. Sie weiß, dass der Schlüssel in ihr selbst liegt, der Schlüssel zu einer Wahrheit, die so erschreckend ist, dass sich ihr Bewusstsein in die Barmherzigkeit des Vergessens geflüchtet hat. deutsch.

The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert: An English Professor's Journey into Christian Faith , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 435min
Rosaria, by the standards of many, was living a very good life. She had a tenured position at a large university in a field for which she cared deeply. She owned two homes with her partner, in which they provided hospitality to students and activists that were looking to make a difference in the world. In the community, Rosaria was involved in volunteer work. At the university, she was a respected advisor of students and her department's curriculum. Then, in her late 30's, Rosaria encountered something that turned her world upside down - the idea that Christianity, a religion she had regarded as problematic and sometimes downright damaging, might be right about who God was. That idea seemed to fly in the face of the people and causes that she most loved. What follows is a story of what she describes as a train wreck at the hand of the supernatural. These are her secret thoughts about those events, written as only a reflective English professor could. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rosaria Champagne Butterfield.

Die Gewitterschmiede: Perry Rhodan 2921, Hörbuch, Digital, 211min
Ein Gäone wird gejagt - und deckt ein Geheimnis seines Volkes auf. Wir schreiben das Jahr 1551 NGZ, gut dreitausend Jahre vom 21. Jahrhundert alter Zeitrechnung entfernt. Nach großen Umwälzungen in der Milchstraße haben sich die Verhältnisse zwischen den unterschiedlichen Sternenreichen beruhigt; im Großen und Ganzen herrscht Frieden. Vor allem die von Menschen bewohnten Planeten und Monde streben eine positive Zukunft an. Tausende von Welten haben sich zur Liga Freier Galaktiker zusammengeschlossen, in der auch Wesen mitwirken, die man in früheren Jahren als "nichtmenschlich" bezeichnet hätte. Trotz aller Spannungen, die nach wie vor bestehen: Perry Rhodans Vision, die Galaxis in eine Sterneninsel ohne Kriege zu verwandeln, scheint sich langsam zu verwirklichen. Man knüpft sogar vermehrt Kontakte zu anderen Galaxien. Gegenwärtig befindet sich Rhodan selbst im Goldenen Reich der Thoogondu, die ebenfalls eine Beziehung zur Milchstraße aufbauen wollen. Doch spielen die Thoogondu wirklich ehrlich? Erste Zweifel sind angebracht, nachdem Rhodan ihnen Gedächtnismanipulationen nachweisen kann, weitere tun sich im Zusammenhang mit den Gäonen auf, die das Goldene Reich unterstützen. Denn die Gäonen sind Menschen der Erde, die vor zweitausend Jahren nach Sevcooris gebracht wurden. Eines ihrer Geheimnisse ist "Die Gewitterschmiede"...
