    Secret History: Mistborn , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 329min
    Mistborn: Secret History is a companion story to the original Mistborn trilogy. As such, it contains huge spoilers for the books Mistborn (The Final Empire), The Well of Ascension and The Hero of Ages. It also contains very minor spoilers for the book The Bands of Mourning. Mistborn: Secret History builds upon the characterisation, events and worldbuilding of the original trilogy. Listening to it without that background will be a confusing process at best. In short, this isn't the place to start your journey into Mistborn (though if you have listened to the trilogy - but it has been a while - you should be just fine, so long as you remember the characters and the general plot of the books). Saying anything more here risks revealing too much. Even knowledge of this story's existence is, in a way, a spoiler. There's always another secret. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Kramer.

    The Color of Death, Hörbuch, Digital, 329min
    The phenomenal New York Times best-selling author Elizabeth Lowell brilliantly displays her incomparable talents in a story of treachery, greed, conspiracy, and murder that will hold the reader spellbound until the final word. It is the opportunity of a lifetime for Kate Chandler, the chance to cut seven rare, priceless sapphires and solidify her reputation as a world-class jewel cutter. But something goes tragically wrong during the transfer of goods. The sapphires vanish without a trace. Missing also is the man Kate trusted to transport the gems, her half-brother Lee, who now quite possibly is dead. Suddenly, she is on the run, pursued by federal agents who suspect her of being the criminal mastermind of a cunning bait-and-switch scheme. Special Agent Sam Groves, an essential member of the FBI's elite strike force, could never be scammed by a beautiful confidence woman. But something is troubling about this assignment: someone else is chasing Kate Chandler as well. Kate suspects the awful truth: she has stumbled into a conspiracy that goes far beyond a simple jewel heist. Getting Groves, her constant shadow, to believe her is a step in the right direction, because the order has already been passed down to a ruthlessly efficient assassin: Kate Chandler must not be allowed to live.

    Through the Wheat , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 329min
    Throughout history generations of young men have fought in wars started by old men. There is no experience other than combat that makes a more lasting or life changing impression on a man or woman. The majority who have seen the battlefield saw combat before their 25th birthday, and many who did never got to celebrate that anniversary. Those who do come back are forever changed. Krebs in Hemmingway's "Soldier's Home" for instance. Novels of war are best written by those who served. Boyd saw combat in WWI and although the face of war has changed in many ways since this novel was written, the bottom line hasn't. Dead is dead, fear is fear. As a Vietnam veteran my stomach was often in knots reading Boyd's vivid descriptions of a "Grunt's" view of his battles fought in WWI. I was also reminded of the fine line between going home alive or dead. Another foot to the right, and the mine would have gone off under me. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mike Vendetti.

    Determinism, Freedom, Psychopathy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 329min
    Even though the world is governed by laws, human beings are able to be free. In fact, there is no difference between being genuinely free and having a distinctively human psychological architecture. But self-deception and rationalization can result in the replacement of actual beliefs with operational pseudo-beliefs. When this happens, the result is a sociopathic pseudo-person. The difference between a sociopath and a psychopath is that, whereas the sociopath once had a distinctively human psychological architecture, the psychopath never developed such an architecture to begin with. Thus, whereas the sociopath's personality is that of an ossified human, the psychopath has no real personality to speak of. What the psychopath lacks in the way of an actual identity, he replaces with narratives, the primary function of which is to give a semblance of cohesiveness to his otherwise gelatinous psyche, and a secondary function of which is to defraud others. But the psychopath's tendency to defraud others is merely a way of providing external reinforcement for his flimsy narrative-based faux-identity. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Boston Blackie, Vol. 2, Hörbuch, Digital, 329min
    Here are original broadcasts of the old-time radio show featuring amateur detective Boston Blackie. Created by author Jack Boyle, Boston Blackie was a master safecracker and hardened criminal who served time in a California prison. Rehabilitated, he decided to use his knowledge of the underworld to fight crime as an amateur detective. Known as "an enemy to those who make him an enemy, friend to those who have no friend", Boston Blackie's exploits were adapted to film, radio, and television. While investigating cases, Blackie would invariably encounter harebrained Police Inspector Faraday and always solve the crime before Faraday could. The initial friction between Blackie and Faraday gave way as the series continued and Faraday came to recognize Blackie's talents, occasionally even requesting his assistance. Blackie dated Mary Wesley, and for the first half of the series his best pal, Shorty, was on hand. Boston Blackie is played by Richard Kollmar in these 12 exciting episodes, which aired between December 1946 and March 1947: "Mary, Registered Nurse", "Police Impersonator", "The Derailed Gold Train", "Carl Browning Cleaning Shop", "The Search for Jim Gary", "Jacques Pierre and the Diamonds", "Seven Years' Bad Luck for Florence Wells", "Joe Delivers the Goods", "Larry 'The Kid' vs. Savinni", "The Tenth Street Gym and the Stolen Car Ring", "Sam Fisher's Past", and "The Horseroom Thefts of Boston Blackie".

    The Long Snapper , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 329min
    Brian Kinchen was a 38-year-old husband, father of four, and seventh-grade Bible teacher whose professional football career had been over for three years when the New England Patriots called on December 15, 2003. With the Patriots riding a 10-game winning streak and the playoffs only a few weeks away, they needed a fill-in for the obscure but vital job of snapping the ball for their punter and kicker a long snapper. Brian had received similar invitations to tryouts that yielded only disappointment - the teams always went with a younger guy. But could he really turn away from the chance of a lifetime? The Long Snapper chronicles Brian's remarkable journey as he and the Patriots seek the ultimate trophy. Unfortunately, the dream come true turns into a personal nightmare as Brian struggles both on and off the field, and the pressure to perform on the biggest stage in professional sports nearly causes him to walk away. Seven weeks after leaving the classroom, however, Brian overcomes his greatest fear and snaps the ball on the historic game-winning field goal with only seconds left in the Super Bowl. As told by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jeffrey Marx, The Long Snapper is the story of a man who finally achieves the success he has always wanted. Brian Kinchen's championship ring is a powerful status symbol for all to see. But his journey forces him to reexamine what really matters, and he realizes the true measure of a man has nothing to do with status: life is not about prestige; it is about passion and purpose. It is about impacting the lives of others. Brian Kinchen was a 38-year-old husband, father of four, and seventh-grade Bible teacher whose professional football career had been over for three years when the New England Patriots called on December 15, 2003. ungekürzt.

    A Heavenly Conference , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 329min
    A Heavenly Conference is Richard Sibbes' exposition of the memorable meeting that took place on the first Easter Sunday when the risen Christ met Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb. Though only a few words were exchanged between the Lord and Mary, Sibbes saw in them the gospel in a nutshell. A Heavenly Conference is a wonderfully original treatment of the doctrine of the believer's union with Christ. It is written by a loving and tender-hearted pastor whose main aim is to help believers enjoy the comfort that comes from knowing that Jesus' God and Father is our God and Father too. "For from this, that God is our God, cometh all that we have that is good in nature and grace. Whatsoever is comfortable cometh from this spring, that God in Christ is our God, our reconciled God." Without such assurance, we simply cannot live Christian lives as God would have us. God would have us thankful, cheerful, rejoicing, and strong in faith: but we will be none of these things unless we are sure that God and Christ are ours for good. Here, then, are pastorally vital truths that Sibbes seeks to work into us. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim Denison.

    Zen for Americans , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 329min
    Zen for Americans. Sermons of a Buddhist abbot by Soyen Shaku. Translated by Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki. Narrated by Denis Daly. In a world riddled with irreconcilable conflict among doctrinaire religions, Soyen Shaku's crisp and incisive commentaries on Buddhism come across as particularly engaging. Shaku's eminently reasonable worldview and his skillful exposition of a truly universal definition of divinity and its inevitable necessity are both compelling and difficult to refute. In particular, this collection of discourses probes deeply and revealingly into the fundamental questions that occupy the minds of believers and unbelievers alike: why men cultivate religion in the first place and what the secret of its persistent vitality is. Contents:Translator's Preface The Sutra of Forty-Two Chapters The God-Conception Assertions and Denials Immortality Buddhist Faith Buddhist Ethics What Is Buddhism? The Middle Way The Wheel of the Good Law The Phenomenal and the Supra-Phenomenal Reply to a Christian Critic Ignorance and Enlightenment Spiritual Enlightenment Practice of Dhyana Kwannon Bosatz Buddhism and Oriental Culture The Story of Deer Park The Story of the Gem-Hunting The Sacrifice for a Stanza Buddhist View of War At the Battle of Nan-Shan Hill A Memorial Address for Those Who Died in the Russo-Japanese War ungekürzt.
