The Year of Voting Dangerously: The Derangement of American Politics , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 725min
Maureen Dowd's incendiary takes and takedowns from 2016 - the most bizarre, disruptive and divisive Presidential race in modern history. Trapped between two candidates with the highest recorded unfavorables, Americans are plunged into The Year of Voting Dangerously. In this perilous and shocking campaign season, The New York Times columnist traces the psychologies and pathologies in one of the nastiest and most significant battles of the sexes ever. Dowd has covered Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton since the '90s. She was with the real estate mogul when he shyly approached his first Presidential rope line in 1999, and she won a Pulitzer Prize that same year for her penetrating columns on the Clinton impeachment follies. Like her best-sellers, Bushworld and Are Men Necessary?, The Year of Voting Dangerously will feature Dowd's trademark cocktail of wry humor and acerbic analysis in dispatches from the political madhouse. If America is on the escalator to hell, then The Year of Voting Dangerously is the perfect guide for this surreal, insane ride.

Game Changer: The Story of Pictionary and How I Turned a Simple Idea into the Bestselling Board Game in the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 477min
It all began with one small step. Game Changer is the story of how a 23-year-old waiter from Seattle had the outrageous dream of beating industry giants Milton Bradley and Mattel at their own game. With no experience, Rob Angel used his guts, drive, and intuition to create one of the most beloved board games of all time: Pictionary. Rob did it his way. He produced the first 1,000 games by hand in his tiny one- bedroom apartment, disrupted the market by selling to nontraditional retail outlets, and did countless demonstrations at the bottom of the escalator at Nordstrom — a store with no game department. Anything to succeed. Getting there wasn’t easy; Rob had to navigate his way through production mishaps, cash flow troubles, and countless copycats trying to scratch their way past Pictionary. Still, within three years, Pictionary became the best-selling board game in North America, and shortly after, the world. When Mattel acquired Pictionary in 2001, a staggering 38,000,000 games had been sold in 60 countries. In Game Changer, Rob shares the remarkable inside story of taking Pictionary from simple idea to iconic global brand by breaking rules and breaking records, never giving up or giving in, and working harder when most would walk away all while having the time of his life. Candid and compelling, Game Changer is as much a captivating memoir as it is a blueprint to personal and professional success. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charles Constant, Rob Angel.

Annabelle Duncan , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 173min
Annabelle Duncan is an enhanced memory of when I came to California. Here is a sample: Thank heavens there was no line at the counter. With ticket in hand, she raced down the corridor and up the escalator and to the frustratingly long security line. When she finally got through, she hurried down the long, second floor corridor, reading the numbers above her as she passed under them. When she found the right section, she plopped into a seat near a massive window to await the plane's departure. Relieved to have made it on time, Annabelle took a moment to catch her breath. As she did so, she became aware of just how cold she was. She unzipped her bag of essentials, rummaged through it and remembered with irritation that she had left her jacket in the cab. She rubbed her arms. "Shoot," she mumbled. What a way to start a new adventure - without a wrap! It's a good thing I chose LA, she thought. She had caught the attention of the man sitting across from her. She had been aware of his eyes on her from the moment she had sat down and started going through her bag. He was still staring at her with amusement. She glanced up uncomfortably, intending only to quickly glance his way to see what his deal was, and as she did so, something strange happened. His dark eyes completely captured her attention. He smiled warmly at her. He was a handsome man, and very big. Whoa. In fact, thick ropes of muscle wound up his forearms, to disappear under his tee shirt sleeves. Whoa again. His face was framed with thick, curly, coal black, shoulder-length hair. He smiled at her again, nodding slightly. But Annabelle gave him only a cursory nod and no smile. She was not interested in men. Not now. Not even handsome strangers who were roped with muscle. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Deanna Arnold. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/083197/bk_acx0_083197_sample.mp3.

Pope Pius XII , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 49min
Pope Pius XII: man of peace, prophet, and protector of victims of war.When we talk of saints who have been maligned, misunderstood, and mistreated, no one deserves more a place in this book than venerable Pope Pius XII. We have learned late in life that the history passed down depends on the authors, not necessarily on the facts. We can remember in our lifetime, the escalator of our emotions and intellect, as a country ascended from enemy to friend and then descended, back again, from friend to enemy. As soon as our heads cleared, we realized that history lay in the hands of those who wrote about it. We have had a passion to write about Pope Pius XII for years. The attacks on His Holiness have appeared to us as just another attack on Mother Church. And how better to do it, than after he is dead - when he cannot defend himself.But surprise, surprise, his good deeds live long after him, coming down to us from those he helped during that horrible World War II, which shook the earth. We are not the only ones who want to set the record straight, thank God, but we have had this gnawing desire to tell his story.We love him, and we have always loved him. He should be honored, not maligned. And there have been those who have defended him; but as is so often the case, those who would besmirch his name get more of the press. And as scandal and slander sell more books, conscience aside, no matter the truth, it is written and it sells! They claim to write objectively. That can be no closer to the truth than their allegations.I admit we are subjective; but it is backed up by fact! So, here goes. Please stay with us, as we tell you about one of our greatest popes - one born into one of the worst times to be seated in the Chair of Peter. ungekürzt. Language: English.
