2103 - Act 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 151min
It's the year 2103. Fifty-three years after the second American Civil War, the landscape of a once great nation is in shambles. The United States is no more and is now broken into three separate countries; The American Union, The Confederate States of America, and the California Republic. The American Union is in a constant state of Martial Law due to rioting by a group of protestors known as "Outliers". They fight against the oppressive laws decreed by President Caleb Fulton, but all is not what it seems. The man they know as President Fulton is an actor named Stephen O'Neil who is being held captive by an administration that has been in power for more than 20 years. After their plan to have the protestors killed in a tragedy dubbed "The Chicago Massacre", the American Union's capital is in upheaval and reeling over the deaths as more troops hit the ground to secure order. But the massacre is nothing more than a giant act of smoke and mirrors. There is an agenda at play that once it has begun, will have a devastating effect on the entire world. Told from multiple points of view, in brief glimpses of a character's life, 2103 is a story about corruption, greed, and the human will to survive. For those who love dystopian, speculative fiction. Take a journey into the "land of the free and the home of the brave" after everything falls apart. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Al Kessel.

The Age of Miracles Is Back: How Jesus Inspired the 12 Steps: Step 12 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 94min
I believe the Holy Spirit inspired Dr. Frank Buchman, a minister, to bring hope to the addicted and remind us that the age of miracles is back through Jesus Christ. This is step 12 (discipleship).Before it became Alcoholics Anonymous, Dr. Frank Buchman, a minister, saw that his anger and resentments blocked him from God's plan for his life. He stopped taking a paycheck and followed Jesus Christ's teachings to “make disciples all over the world”. He did just that and made such a transformative impact that even Hitler's evil forces paid attention.Then the Oxford Group introduced to Bill Wilson through Ebby Thatcher the first official court card. This audiobook blends the original Biblical history of the Oxford Group and the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous to help the listener gain spiritual discernment to defeat addictive mind-sets that fear and anger create that turn into addictions.Excerpt: If you study deeper into the life of the doctor and missionary Frank Buchman, you will find that he didn’t believe his churches were transforming lives. It was more of an “intellectual belief and assumption, rather than vibrant convictions”.In 1934, with Hitler in power, the Oxford Group’s work in Europe brought hope that a Christian revolution could be the best answer, and that “the hope that the whole continent of Europe would be influenced and find a true answer through the dictatorship of the living Spirit of God”. The Germans decreed that the Oxford Group was part of the British Intelligence Service and should be harshly suppressed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Glenn Langohr.

Mississippi in Africa: The Saga of the Slaves of Prospect Hill Plantation and Their Legacy in Liberia Today , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 789min
The gripping story of 200 freed Mississippi slaves who sailed to Liberia to build a new colony - where the colonists' repression of the native tribes would beget a tragic cycle of violence. When a wealthy Mississippi cotton planter named Isaac Ross died in 1836, his will decreed that his plantation, Prospect Hill, should be liquidated and the proceeds from the sale be used to pay for his slaves' passage to the newly established colony of Liberia in western Africa. Ross' heirs contested the will for more than a decade in the state courts and legislature - prompting a deadly revolt in which a group of slaves burned Ross' mansion to the ground - but the will was ultimately upheld. The slaves then emigrated to their new home, where they battled the local tribes and built vast plantations with Greek Revival mansions in a region the Americo-Africans renamed "Mississippi in Africa." The seeds of resentment sown over a century of cultural conflict between the colonists and tribal peoples would explode in the late 20th century, begetting a civil war that rages in Liberia to this day. In the award-winning tradition of Slaves in the Family, this enthralling work traces an epic legacy that sweeps from the slave quarters of the antebellum South to the war-ravaged streets of modern-day Monrovia. Tracking down Prospect Hill's living descendants, deciphering a history ruled by rumor, and delivering the complete chronicle in riveting prose, journalist Alan Huffman has rescued a lost chapter of American history whose aftermath is far from over. ungekürzt.

Starlight: Pact Arcanum, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 553min
The Wanderer Earth, 2142. A century has passed since his father's death, and Antonio Jameson has returned home to pay his respects to a man he never had a chance to know, but has always resented. Captain of the Jumpvessel Singularity, he has spent his entire adult life navigating the void between the stars, blissfully avoiding any part of the fate that the higher powers had decreed for him in the war between the White Wind and the Red. But in a world where immortality is commonplace, death is not always what it seems, and destiny is not so easily cast aside. The Mentor In memory of his love for Tobias, Rafael became Antonio's closest friend and ally, supporting his protégé's advancement in the Spacer Guild despite the deep disapproval of Antonio's family. Both Spacers have their secrets, however, and nothing stays buried forever. Will the truth set them free, or tear them apart? The Spy Razheel has served the Court of Shadows faithfully for over 100 years as the Night's Herald without openly taking sides in the divide between the Court's Nightwalker and Daywalker factions. Now, after 30,000 years of conflict, something new walks the Earth, which may be the greatest weapon yet in the battle between the races. As Antonio's fate becomes clear, she steps seamlessly into the role of revolutionary, and all of her carefully laid plans rise to fruition. The war comes full circle, and one woman's actions may set her entire race on the path to salvation or lead it to extinction. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Greg Tremblay.

The Family: Three Journeys into the Heart of the Twentieth Century , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 805min
The author of the The Children's Blizzard delivers an epic work of 20th-century history through the riveting story of one extraordinary Jewish family. With cinematic power and beauty, best-selling author David Laskin limns his own genealogy to tell the spellbinding tale of the three drastically different paths that his family members took across the span of 150 years. In the latter half of the 19th century Laskin's great-great-grandfather, a Torah scribe named Shimon Dov HaKohen, raised six children with his wife, Beyle, in a yeshiva town at the western fringe of the Russian empire. The pious couple expected their sons and daughters to carry the family tradition into future generations. But the social and political upheavals of the 20th century decreed otherwise. The HaKohen family split off into three branches. One branch emigrated to America and founded the fabulously successful Maidenform Bra Company; one branch went to Palestine as pioneers and participated in the contentious birth of the state of Israel; and the third branch remained in Europe and suffered the Holocaust. In tracing the roots of his own family, Laskin captures the epic sweep of 20th-century history. A modern-day scribe, Laskin honors the traditions, the lives, and the choices of his ancestors: revolutionaries and entrepreneurs, scholars and farmers, tycoons and truck drivers. The Family is an eloquent masterwork of true grandeur - a deeply personal, dramatic, and universal account of a people caught in a cataclysmic time in world history. ungekürzt. Language: English.

A Warrior Dangerously in Control England, 1334 - In the second book of The Feud series, Baron Magnus Verdun is a warrior whose handsome face gives little indication of the darkness he struggles to contain. While pursuing the murderous brigands who plague his lands, he becomes the unwitting savior of the woman the king has decreed he wed - the reckless Lady Thomasin, whose very presence threatens his carefully ordered life. And more so when she proves outspoken beyond what is required of a dutiful wife. Can he tame this woman whose willful ways ought to offend, but instead captivate? More, dare he allow her near and risk exposing the secret that could push her away? A Lady Perilously Improper Despite efforts to make a proper lady of her, the illegitimate Thomasin de Arell knows she is no match for the Baron of Emberly. Though she expects her new husband will think her beneath him, she is unprepared when he insists on separate chambers. When he also demands she control her behavior, the spurned Thomasin rebels - and unknowingly becomes the pawn of forces determined to further the feud. But upon finding herself in Magnus's arms, she discovers he is not as indifferent as he would have her believe. And when she glimpses his torment, she is determined to shine light on his darkness. Will he let her in? Or will their enemies use the distrust between husband and wife for their own ends? In this sequel to the best-selling medieval romance, Baron Of Godsmere, join Baron Verdun and his lady as they discover that true love seeks first the soul, and is as easily seen in the dark as in the light. ungekürzt.
