Milk Blood Heat

These stories and the characters that drive them are like lightning-spectacular, beautiful, carrying a hint of danger. Milk Blood Heat is a stunning and important debut.' Danielle Evans, author of Before You Suffocate Your Own Fool Self A livewire debut from Dantiel W. Moniz, one of the most exciting discoveries in today's literary landscape, Milk Blood Heat depicts the sultry lives of Floridians in intergenerational tales that contemplate human connection, race, womanhood, inheritance, and the elemental darkness in us all. Set among the cities and suburbs of Florida, each story delves into the ordinary worlds of young girls, women, and men who find themselves confronted by extraordinary moments of violent personal reckoning. These intimate portraits of people and relationships scour and soothe and blast a light on the nature of family, faith, forgiveness, consumption, and what we may, or may not, owe one another. A thirteen-year-old meditates on her sadness and the difference between herself and her white best friend when an unexpected tragedy occurs; a woman recovering from a miscarriage finds herself unable to let go of her daughter-whose body parts she sees throughout her daily life; a teenager resists her family's church and is accused of courting the devil; servers at a supper club cater to the insatiable cravings of their wealthy clientele; and two estranged siblings take a road-trip with their father's ashes and are forced to face the troubling reality of how he continues to shape them. Wise and subversive, spiritual and seductive, Milk Blood Heat forms an ouroboros of stories that bewitch with their truth, announcing the arrival of a bright new literary star.

After America: Get Ready for Armageddon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 783min

Optimistic about America’s future? Don’t be. In his giant New York Times best seller, America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It, Mark Steyn predicted collapse for the rest of the Western World. Now, he adds, America has caught up with Europe on the great rush to self-destruction. It’s not just our looming financial collapse; it’s not just a culture that seems on a fast track to perdition, full of hapless, indulgent, childish people who think government has the answer for every problem; it’s not just America’s potential eclipse as a world power because of the drunken sailor policymaking in Washington—no, it’s all this and more that spells one word for America: Armageddon. What will a world without American leadership look like? It won’t be pretty—not for you and not for your children. America’s decline won’t be gradual, like an aging Europe sipping espresso at a café until extinction (and the odd Greek or Islamist riot). No, America’s decline will be a wrenching affair marked by violence and possibly secession. With his trademark wit, Steyn delivers the depressing news with raw and unblinking honesty—but also with the touch of vaudeville stand-up and soft shoe that makes him the most entertaining, yet profound, columnist on the planet. And as an immigrant with nowhere else to go, he offers his own prescription for winning America back from the feckless and arrogant liberal establishment that has done its level best to suffocate the world’s last best hope in a miasma of debt, decay, and debility. You will not read a more important—or more alarming, or even funnier—book all year than After America. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Steyn.

The Spanish Flu 1918 History of the Deadliest: Lessons to Learn and Global Consequences. Comparison with the Pandemic of 2020 and How to Prevent New Ones in the Future , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 308min

Did you know? During the flu pandemic of 1918, the New York City health commissioner tried to slow the transmission of the flu by ordering businesses to open and close on staggered shifts to avoid overcrowding on the subways.The Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, the deadliest in history, infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide - about one-third of the planet’s population - and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims, including some 675,000 Americans. The 1918 flu was first observed in Europe, the United States and parts of Asia before swiftly spreading around the world.It is dangerous to draw too many parallels between Coronavirus and the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, that killed at least 50 million people around the world.Covid-19 is an entirely new disease, which disproportionately affects older people. The deadly strain of influenza that swept the globe in 1918 tended to strike those aged between 20 and 30, with strong immune systems.But the actions taken by governments and individuals to prevent the spread of infection have a familiar ring to them.The first wave of the 1918 pandemic occurred in the spring and was generally mild. The sick, who experienced such typical flu symptoms as chills, fever and fatigue, usually recovered after several days, and the number of reported deaths was low.However, a second, highly contagious wave of influenza appeared with a vengeance in the fall of that same year. Victims died within hours or days of developing symptoms, their skin turning blue and their lungs filling with fluid that caused them to suffocate. In just one year, 1918, the average life expectancy in America plummeted by a dozen years.Where did the spanish flu come from?Scientists still do not know for sure where the Spanish Flu originated, though theories point to France, China, Britain, or the United States, where the first known case was reported at Camp Funston in Fort Riley, Kans ungekürzt.

Emma is a wolf-shifter on the run from humans who killed her parents 15 years ago. When she steps on an old trap in the Tennessee woods, she is truly screwed. Hungry and tired from weeks of running, she assumes she's going to die. Liam and Jaden are also wolf-shifters. They're staying in a cabin in the wilderness for the summer to catalog the plant life in the area. Hoping to spend lazy months enhancing their own relationship and escaping women altogether, they are surprised to find a trapped female wolf on their first day at the cabin. Not only is she injured and mysteriously alone, but they realize she's their mate. As Emma recovers from a broken leg, the three find themselves drawing closer and closer together. The pheromones filling the tiny cabin suffocate them with the need to mate. But Emma has an agenda: run for her life and keep these two male shifters from succumbing to the same fate she is destined for - death. And Liam and Jaden have their own problems. Both are concerned about what will happen to their relationship if they claim the gorgeous female occupying their bed. Will she accept their need to be with each other as well as her? More urgently, can they trust her not to flee at the first opportunity, leaving Liam and Jaden with holes in their hearts?

Ragnar & the Battlestormer: When Vikings Fall in Love , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 247min

When Ragnar Magnusson has to do battle with the high seas and an ancient mariner and navigator of the ship, part of his bravado is for Helga, also on board The Battlestormer. A young man on board with his three boyhood friends, Ragnar is singled out by the ship's navigator to become his apprentice in the art and science of navigating the oceans. Captain Leif Knutson is in search of the fabled Vinland the Good, exploring for King Sigurd, and he hopes to open up timber and ore trade in the newly found lands far to the west of Greenland. When Thorhall the Navigator passes all his knowledge on to Ragnar, Son of Magnusson, the old man dies, leaving Ragnar the most important man on board - the navigator. Helga and her ailing, dying mother are traveling to Vinland to join with her father. Once there, Helga, who has been promised to Ivar Bloodax in marriage before she was born, believes she must go through with the "slavery" in question as she puts it. On board too are Kark, Ragnar's own family slave, and Grimwold, the bullwhip-carrying boss man to the oarsmen.Even before they locate Vinland, where Helga's father rules as Halfdane the Godi (village elder), Ragnar decides to challenge Ivar Bloodax for Helga's hand in marriage as the two have fallen in love during the treacherous voyage from Greenland to the new continent. Both Kark and Grimwold set about training the "boy navigator" in the art of self-defense and offense with a sword against a man with a battleax, a warrior twice his age who has a reputation so large he is the subject of a Saga. From the moment Ragnar makes his lawful challenge, intrigues of another kind begin to suffocate and attempt to destroy his love for Helga, who has her own secrets. Ragnar is also betrayed by one of his closest friends. As the obstacles mount, Captain Knutson and the crew of Battlestormer are also confronted with Skraelings - Native Indians - who are out for a vengeance of their own. ungekürzt. Language: English.
