    Coyote Rings the Bell: A Mexican Folktale, Hörbuch, Digital, 7min
    Award-winning storyteller Bill Gordh (Film Advisory Board Award of Excellence winner, National Association of Parenting Periodicals Gold Award winner) presents this folk tale live with no script, accompanied only by his own dynamic banjo playing. Coyote saw Rabbit sleeping under a tree. Often Rabbit tricked him, but this time Rabbit was asleep! Coyote pounced, ready to eat. Something up in the tree gave Rabbit an idea. Rabbit asked, "Could you wait 'til I do my job for you to eat me?" Coyote asked what the job was, and Rabbit told him she had to shake the tree to ring the bell for all the little bunnies to get out of school. Coyote decided he would rather eat some little bunnies than a skinny old rabbit. Coyote offered to let Rabbit go and do her job for her. At sunset Coyote began shaking the tree. High in the tree was a big hornet's nest that was shaped kind of like a bell. The more Coyote shook, the louder the hornets buzzed as they got mad! But no bunnies came hopping by. Coyote shook harder, and the hornet nest broke free and fell on Coyote. Coyote went running and howling. He had to jump into a pond to escape. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Gordh.

    The propulsive, shockingly plausible sequel to New York Times best seller Daemon. In one of the most buzzed-about debuts, Daniel Suarez introduced a terrifying vision of a new world order, controlled by the Daemon, an insidious computer program unleashed by a hi-tech wunderkind. Daemon captured the attention of the tech community, became a New York Times and Indie best seller, and left listeners hungry for more. Well, more is here, and it's even more gripping than its predecessor.In the opening chapters of Freedom, the Daemon is firmly in control, using an expanded network of real-world, dispossessed darknet operatives to tear apart civilization and rebuild it anew. Soon civil war breaks out in the American Midwest, in a brutal wave of violence that becomes known as the Corn Rebellion. Former detective Pete Sebeck, now the Daemon's most powerful - though reluctant - operative, must lead a small band of enlightened humans toward a populist movement designed to protect the new world order. But the private armies of global business are preparing to crush the Daemon once and for all.In a world of conflicted loyalties, rapidly diminishing human power, and the possibility that anyone can be a spy, what's at stake is nothing less than human freedom's last hope to survive the technology revolution. ungekürzt.

    Finding Franklin: The Untold Story of a 165-Year Search , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 526min
    In 2014, media around the world buzzed with news that an archaeological team from Parks Canada had located and identified the wreck of HMS Erebus, the flagship of Sir John Franklin’s lost expedition to find the Northwest Passage.Finding Franklin outlines the larger story and the cast of detectives from every walk of life that led to the discovery, solving one of the Arctic’s greatest mysteries. In compelling and accessible prose, Russell Potter details his decades of work alongside key figures in the era of modern searches for the expedition and elucidates how shared research and ideas have led to a fuller understanding of the Franklin crew’s final months. Finding Franklin recounts the more than 50 searches for traces of his ships and crew and the dedicated, often obsessive, men and women who embarked on them. Potter discusses the crucial role that Inuit oral accounts, often cited but rarely understood, played in all of these searches, and continue to play to this day, and offers historical and cultural context to the contemporary debates over the significance of Franklin’s achievement. While examination of HMS Erebus will undoubtedly reveal further details of this mystery, Finding Franklin assembles the stories behind the myth and illuminates what is ultimately a remarkable decades-long discovery."With ambitious scope and profound depth...this seamless blend of research and captivating storytelling showcases the curiosity, frailty, and endurance of the human spirit."

    The Colonel's Baby: A Military Romance Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 333min
    They're baaaaccck, Tracy sing-songed as she passed by where I was trying to study. I didn't look up. "Who?" "Them." She gestured with her chin. I finally looked up to see the small group of Marines coming into the restaurant where I worked part-time. I snorted and looked back down at my book. "I guess they can come in if they want to," I said, turning a page. "This is a restaurant and they have to eat." "And flirt with everything in a skirt." She paused, looking over at me. "Aren't you going over there? They are sitting down in your section." Damn, she was right. I closed my book. So much for studying. I grabbed the menus and headed over to the table where the men sat, talking. As I approached, I took a moment to check them out. They were military judging by their short buzzed haircuts. There was a base nearby and a lot of the personnel came in for lunch or dinner with their families or friends. Between them and the locals, this place stayed pretty busy. "Good evening, gentlemen," I said as I placed a menu in front of each man. They looked up, smiling and nodding in greeting. "What would you like to drink?" One of the men, a handsome blond with clear blue eyes, looked up at me. "You," he answered, giving me a wink. The other men laughed at his joke. I gave him a smile. "You're funny," I answered.

    World War II Dogfights: The History and Legacy of Aerial Combat during the Second World War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min
    Like lethal insects undergoing a series of metamorphoses into ever more mature and dangerous forms, military aircraft moved rapidly from stage to stage of their development as the 20th century progressed. The catalyst of war provided the swiftest impetus to this evolution. The new mechanized armies existing from the later period of World War I onward seized on the fresh technology and sought to squeeze every possible drop of advantage from it that the limits of science and the era's materials would allow. Many military thinkers and even aeronautical enthusiasts believed that blimps would remain the chief military aerial asset more or less forever. These men thought airplanes would play a secondary role at best, and might even prove a uselessly expensive gimmick soon to fade back into obscurity, leaving the majestic bulk of the dirigible as sole master of the skies. Thus, when World War I began, airplane improvements occurred in an ad hoc, almost accidental manner during the war. However, when pilots' mounting of armaments on airplanes proved a successful means of defeating other aircraft and even attacking men on the ground, a much more active and systematic development of warplanes began across the continent. Each advance prompted a countermeasure, as the two sides strove for primacy in a deadly, unforgiving environment which rewarded real advances in equipment and tactics with survival and punished poor ideas with death. Before long, relatively powerful, heavily armed aircraft buzzed through the skies over battle-stained Europe, tearing each other apart with furious gusts of machine gun fire and sending many of the vaunted dirigibles plunging, burning, to the ground. The new era of fighting aircraft arrived in dramatic fashion. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Hare. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/105312/bk_acx0_105312_sample.mp3.

    Ouija Board Playtime: It was Cassie’s 21st birthday, and she had her friends over to celebrate her special day. Her friends had brought her a birthday cake, ice cream and lots of presents. They had been celebrating since the early evening. It was getting close to midnight now and Cassie and her friends were feeling a little buzzed from the wine coolers they had been drinking. Daryl had bought Cassie an Ouija Board for her birthday. Cassie had always wanted one, but had never gotten around to buying one for herself. She was excited when she had opened her gift from Daryl and saw the big black letters across the box. "Let’s play the Ouija Board!" Cassie said out loud excitedly to everyone. “I have never played it before, have any of you?" "I have," Sarah said. "Great!" Cassie replied. "I’ll go get some candles to light." She then got up and grabbed some candles from the kitchen and lit them all and placed them on the table. Then Cassie, Sarah, Daryl, Nick, Rachel and Tom all sat around the table as Sarah set up the board. "Okay, now everyone take the tips of your fingers and place them on the Ouija marker," Sarah instructed them. They all placed their fingertips on the Ouija marker. "Ouija Board, Ouija Board, bring a spirit to us. Come to us spirit and communicate with us through the Ouija Board." Sarah kept chanting over and over again. Then the marker landed on an "H". “Oh it’s working!” Cassie said under breath. Then the marker landed on an "I". ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kym Datura.
