Nightmares and Geezenstacks , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 327min
One of the great pulp writers, Fredric Brown (1906-1972) combined a flair for the horrific, a quirky sense of humor, and a wild imagination, and published many classic novels in the mystery and science fiction genres. But he was also a master of the "short-short story", tales only a page or two in length, but hard-hitting and with a wicked twist at the end. Nightmares and Geezenstacks (1961) collects 47 short gems by Brown, ranging from science fiction to noir crime to horror, including the chilling and unforgettable "The Geezenstacks". Long unobtainable, Brown's classic collection is available for the first time in almost 40 years and is sure to please both longtime fans and those who are discovering this brilliant writer for the first time. "Might have been written by O. Henry in a black mood; alternately comic, horrifying [and] clever." (Science Fiction & Fantasy Book Review) "My favorite author of all time." (Mickey Spillane) "A distinctive and unique voice...one of the genre's most incisive satirists and outstanding innovators." (Library Journal) "One of the best pulp writers." (Booklist) ungekürzt.

Night World: Huntress , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 327min
The series takes place in a world similar to our own but one where vampires, witches, werewolves and shape-shifters live among humans without their knowledge. These supernatural races make up a secret society known as the Night World, which enforces two fundamental laws to prevent discovery: 1) Never allow humans to gain knowledge of the Night World's existence and, 2) Never fall in love with one of them. Jez Redfern is unique. She's a vampire hunter who's half vampire. Raised in the Redfern family, the girl with fiery hair and silvery-blue eyes was the undisputed leader of a gang of vampire raiders. Then came the discovery that shattered her life - her mother was a human. Now, Jez hunts her former friends, protecting humans from the Night World. But when Circle Daybreak sends her on a search for one of the legendary Wild Powers, Jez has to rejoin her old gang. They want her back -- especially Morgead, the gorgeous green-eyed vampire who used to be her second-in-command. Jez wants to stay faithful to Hugh Davis, the human she loves. But Morgead swears he's her soulmate and he'll do anything to lure her back to the old ways. With danger and temptation around, Jez finds herself irresistibly drawn to him. And she's afraid that if she tastes blood again, she'll become the evil huntress she once was. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Angela Dawe.

Music from Big Pink, Hörbuch, Digital, 327min
'Music from Big Pink' ist die Geschichte eines kleinen Drogendealers, der sich im Umfeld einer erfolgreichen Rockband auf der Höhe ihres Erfolgs rumtreibt. Als Dealer hat man häufig engen Kontakt mit Stars, man kommt in die Backstageräume, die Limos, die Privatjets - man hat überall Zugang. Ich fragte mich, ob ich so eine Figur wohl mit einer realen Rockband kombinieren und die Geschichte mit dem Entstehen eines Rock- Klassikers verflechten könne. Die Musik von The Band und die Zeit, welche sie Mitte der 1960er mit Dylan in Woodstock verbracht haben, schien mir dafür perfekt geeignet." John Niven, 2011 deutsch.

The Dynamics of Effective Listening, Hörbuch, Digital, 327min
While you may have the ability to hear and understand the spoken language, if you have not given serious practice to the art of active listening, then there are many things you have yet to learn about this most basic communication skill. Dr. Tony Alessandra has spent most of his professional career researching relationships between people and has found numerous ideas that can help anyone dramatically improve their communication skills. This will help you better understand the motives and needs of those around you, and help you become a person who is better understood by others. Just because people can talk doesn't mean they have the skills to be public speakers, sales professionals, teachers, or actors! And just because you can hear well enough, doesn't mean you have strong listening skills! Of all the communications skills we employ, listening is the most used, but least understood and practiced. Until now, the skill of listening has been almost completely neglected. In school we learn the "Three Rs"; we may even learn the basics of public speaking, but few schools in America teach the art of listening. In The Dynamics of Effective Listening, Dr. Alessandra will help you identify, understand and take stock of your listening skills. He will help you discover your strong points as well as your weaknesses. You'll practice specific listening skills and learn exercises for improving in all areas. And you'll learn the complexities and nuances of the active listening skill. In addition, you'll learn how to: Discover how to expand, clarify and redirect a conversation. Attune your senses to pick up on others' emotions and body language during a conversation. Uncover how your emotional responses can undermine listening. Learn how to recognize and redirect the attention focus of poor listeners. Discover why communication tends to break down with certain people in your life, and how to prevent it.

The Second Longest Night , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 327min
To find his ex-wife’s killer, Drum takes on the Communist Party. Deirdre Hartsell loved life too much to shoot herself in her pretty head. She’d been a high-society party girl since her days at college, and her two greatest passions were keeping up appearances and having a roaring good time. Women like that don’t kill themselves, and Deirdre’s father wants to prove that his girl didn’t die by her own hand. To get the truth, he hires Washington DC’s sharpest private detective, Chester Drum. After all, Drum knew Deirdre better than anyone - he was married to her. But in a town built on lies, Deirdre lived with more than her fair share of secrets, and the first thing Drum learns is that his late ex-wife was a prominent member of the Communist Party, supporting the local cell with endless donations from her fat checkbook. Did leftist sympathies get Deirdre killed? The truth lies in Venezuela - and Chester Drum has gone farther than that for answers before. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Scherer.
