    Radical War (eBook, ePUB)
    This book examines the digital explosion that has ripped across the battlefield, weaponising our attention and making everyone a participant in wars without end.'Smart' devices, apps, archives and algorithms remove the bystander from war, collapsing the distinctions between audience and actor, soldier and civilian, media and weapon. This has ruptured our capacity to make sense of war. Now we are all either victims or perpetrators.In Radical War, Ford and Hoskins reveal how contemporary war is legitimised, planned, fought, experienced, remembered and forgotten in a continuous and connected way, through digitally saturated fields of perception.Plotting the emerging relationship between data, attention and the power to control war, the authors chart the complex digital and human interdependencies that sustain political violence today. Through a unique, interdisciplinary lens, they map our disjointed experiences of conflict and illuminate this dystopian new ecology of war.

    The Empire is splitting at the seams. The Great Houses refuse to obey the Throne World and have begun to conduct increasingly independent politics. Sensing the weakness of the central government, even the most loyal star systems of the Imperial Core are refusing to take orders from above. Is this just a string of coincidences, or a coordinated campaign? Can a disjointed humanity rally around a strong leader to deflect an alien invasion? Who of the many figures in intergalactic politics can rise to this challenge? And is there a basis to the creeping rumors that some influential aristocrats have joined forces with the enemy and allied with the aliens? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Neil Hellegers.

    The Inaudible Frequency of Longing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 28min
    This story was originally published in Day One, a weekly literary journal dedicated to short fiction and poetry from emerging writers. The two scientists meet when a lab rat escapes from its cage after giving birth. When they find the rat, they also discover one tiny, raw-pink baby, mewling despairingly at a frequency inaudible to human ears. From there, love - or some disjointed, broken version of it - develops between the scientists. But when their intermittent relationship ends, one of them languishes in a sedated haze at a psychiatric hospital, pondering how unquantifiable emotional factors can influence an otherwise orderly, rational life. Haunting and fluorescently lit, The Inaudible Frequency of Longing is for anyone who has wanted an empirical explanation of love, heartbreak, and the inevitability of human error. ungekürzt.

    Becky rocks a baby that rocked her world. Sixty years earlier, with her fiancé, Drew, in the middle of the Korean Conflict, Ivy throws herself into her work at a nursing home to keep her sanity and provide for the child Drew doesn't know is coming. Ivy cares for Anna, an elderly patient who taxes Ivy's listening ear until the day she suspects Anna's tall tales are not the ramblings of dementia. They're fragments of Anna's disjointed memories of a remarkable life. Finding a faint thread of hope she can't resist tugging, Ivy records Anna's memoir, scribbling furiously after hours to keep up with the woman's emotion-packed, grace-hemmed stories. Is Ivy's answer buried in Anna's past? Becky, Ivy, Anna - three women fight a tangled vine of deception in search of the blossoming simplicity of truth. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Soulless: The Immortal Gene Trilogy, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 648min
    Welcome to Soulless. We are the generation that laughs at death. Reincarnation; what was once considered a gift of immortality has become an eternity of nightmares. Nadia Richards lives in a world plagued by reincarnation, a system of recycling souls where all past memories, personalities, and traumatic events are relived daily in disjointed sequences. Trapped within their own warped realities, not even the richest and most powerful are saved from their own minds unraveling. Madness is the new human nature, and civilizations are crumpling beneath themselves trying to outrun it.  Within a society that ignores death, Nadia appears to be the one exception to the reincarnation trap. Born without any reincarnated memories and with printless eyes, the hot-tempered 19-year-old quickly becomes the ultimate prize to all those wishing to end the vicious cycle, or for some, to ensure they could evade death forever. Listener's discretion: Adult language, violence, and some adult scenes. For mature audiences only. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Wendy Tremont King.

    The Divine Symphony: An Exordium to the Theology of the Catholic Mass , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 408min
    For the past century and longer, nearly every book written by Catholics about the Catholic mass has taken the approach to explain the liturgy by dissecting it into separate parts and pieces. Contrary to this staunchly popular style of teaching, the Catholic mass is not a disjointed litany of things the laity says, things the Priest says, times they stand, times they kneel, things they do, and things they don’t do. Rather, in all of its liturgical expressions, from East to West, the Catholic mass is a singular and divinely inspired composition; a familial song of prayers and confessions. It truly is a divine symphony called the, "Ite, Missa est".This is what makes David L. Gray’s work groundbreaking, in that finally there comes along a book that presents a harmonious symphony of the Catholic mass.The Divine Symphony: An Exordium to the Catholic Mass consists of four very accessible and easy to listen to movements that narrate, explores, and explains the meaning, mystery, theology, history, symbolism, and continuity of the Catholic mass. ungekürzt.
