The Swarm: The Second Formic War (Volume 1) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1081min
Orson Scott Card and Aaron Johnston return to their Ender's Game prequel series with this first volume of an all-new trilogy about the Second Formic War in The Swarm. The first invasion of Earth was beaten back by a coalition of corporate and international military forces and the Chinese army. China has been devastated by the Formic's initial efforts to eradicate Earth life forms and prepare the ground for their own settlement. The Scouring of China struck fear into the other nations of the planet; that fear blossomed into drastic action when scientists determined that the single ship that wreaked such damage was merely a scout ship. There is a mothership out beyond the solar system's Kuiper Belt, and it's heading into the system, unstoppable by any weapons that Earth can muster. Earth has been reorganized for defense. There is now a Hegemon, a planetary official responsible for keeping all the formerly warring nations in line. There's a Polemarch, responsible for organizing all the military forces of the planet into the new International Fleet. But there is an enemy within, an enemy as old as human warfare: ambition and politics. Greed and self-interest. Will Bingwen, Mazer Rackam, Victor Delgado, and Lem Juke be able to divert those very human enemies in time to create a weapon that can effectively defend humanity in the inexorable Second Formic War? Full cast of narrators includes Susan Hanfield, Emily Rankin, Orson Scott Card, and Aaron Johnston. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Hemingway in Love: His Own Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 195min
In June of 1961, A. E. Hotchner visited an old friend in the psychiatric ward of St. Mary's Hospital. It would be the last time they spoke: a few weeks later, Ernest Hemingway was released home, where he took his own life. Their final conversation was also the final installment in a story whose telling Hemingway had spread over nearly a decade. In characteristically pragmatic terms, Hemingway divulged to Hotchner the details of the affair that destroyed his first marriage: the truth of his romantic life in Paris and how he lost Hadley, the real part of each literary woman he'd later create and the great love he spent the rest of his life seeking. And he told of the mischief that made him a legend: of impotence cured in a house of God; of a plane crash in the African bush, from which he stumbled with a bunch of bananas and a bottle of gin in hand; of F. Scott Fitzgerald dispensing romantic advice; of midnight champagne with Josephine Baker; of adventure, human error, and life after lost love. This is Hemingway as few have known him: humble, thoughtful, and full of regret. To protect the feelings of Ernest's wife, Mary - also a close friend - Hotch kept the conversations to himself for decades. Now he tells the story as Hemingway told it to him. Hemingway in Love puts you in the room with the master as he remembers the definitive years that set the course for the rest of his life and dogged him until the end of his days. ungekürzt.

The Viking in the Wheat Field: A Scientist's Struggle to Preserve the World's Harvest , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 472min
In 1999, a terrifying new form of stem rust - spotted in Uganda and dubbed "UG99" - quickly turned robust golden fields into dark, tangled ruins. For decades plant scientists had bred wheat varieties with rust-resistant genes, but these genes did not work against UG99. Since rust migrates high in the atmosphere, it could spread from country to country, continent to continent. Breeders worried that UG99 would soon reach India and Pakistan, where 50 million small farmers produced 20% of the global wheat supply. If that happened, China, the world's largest wheat producer, might be next, and it would be only a matter of time before it reached American wheat fields. Breeders everywhere began searching wheat germplasm collections for sources of resistance. The largest collection was at the Center for Improvement of Maize and Wheat (CIMMYT) in Mexico, developed by the brilliant Danish scientist Bent Skovmand. For three decades, Skovmand amassed, multiplied, and documented thousands of wheat varieties. He served as an advisor on wheat genetic resources to dozens of countries, and hunted for seeds that would contain the genes to protect the harvest from plagues like UG99 and the stresses of global warming. From the mountains of Tibet to the jungles of Mexico, he trekked into fields to consult with farmers. In an era when corporations and governments often jealously guarded breeding information, Skovmand fought to keep his seed bank a center for free, open scientific exchange. By telling the story of Skovmand's work and that of his colleagues, The Viking in the Wheat Field sheds a welcome light on an agricultural sector - plant genetic resources - on which we are all crucially dependent. ungekürzt.

No Trespassing: Skinwalker Ranch, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 634min
There is a piece of property in Utah that borders the Uintah-Ouray Indian Reservation in the northeast extent of the state that many believe to be a vortex of interdimensional and paranormal activity. Due to the untold number and frequency of unexplainable encounters, this location has earned itself the name of Skinwalker Ranch.But the Skinwalker - a legendary creature feared back before the time of the Native Americans indigenous to the Great Basin - is only a small part of a phenomena that includes some of the most intense UFO sightings ever witnessed and recorded, interdimensional portals, intelligent orbs of energy, physical entities beyond identification, and other real-life manifestations.For the first time, you have the opportunity to hear the voices and words of those who have dared to enter into that vortex, to know of their experiences firsthand, to separate truth from fiction, and decide for yourself if the world is really what you think it is.Skinwalker Ranch: No Trespassing is Ryan T. Skinner’s second book exploring the paranormal activity associated with the property in Northeastern Utah. Unlike his first book, which was drawn from his own personal experience and the deep emotional impact it had on him, this second work is a historical perspective that traces the origin of the Skinwalker back more than 3,000 years up until the most recent sighting reported in and around the Great Basin and the Four Corners area of the United States, relying on and drawing from the stories and narratives of eye witnesses, including confidential sources with first-person knowledge of and experience on and around the Skinwalker Ranch itself. Written with coauthor D. L. Wallace, one of the field’s most prolific ghost writers, Skinwalker Ranch: No Trespassing is assured to bring you where you have never been before. ungekürzt.

Beside Me Always: My Personal Journey of Healing, from Tragic Loss to Finding Joy Through My Love of Music. , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 170min
Beside Me Always is comprised of 10 stories that share my grief experience and how I embraced music again. I have been a commercial illustrator since 1981 and my illustrations can be seen on many well-known food labels. For 30 years, I focused on my art career and family. I gave up songwriting and playing guitar, which was something I had loved as a young girl. My book begins with the story of Jason, my first-born child who died due to a severe congenital heart defect. I wanted to be buried with him and grief swallowed up my life for almost two decades. When I opened my heart in 2010 to write the deeply painful experience of losing Jason, my journey toward healing began. Sharing the story of his brief life transformed me, and the grief I carried was lifted. Finding joy after 18 years of sorrow was a gift I never imagined. Music was a magic carpet that lifted me over all of my stress. I was very close to both my parents and it was hard to watch them suffer. My songs eased my pain. I am especially grateful that both my parents witnessed my joy before they died. I am a passionate songwriter; my songs comprise a musical of my life. Many of my songs are dedicated to Jason. I rediscovered the songs I composed in my youth and wrote new songs that helped me cope with current challenges. My music is featured on Insight Timer, a popular meditation app, and my blogs have reached people all over the world. I perform regularly where I live in Southern California. I want to convey my optimism and belief that if I could heal, perhaps others could find hope with my story. If my words and music can bring any level of comfort to another person, then I have achieved more in my lifetime than I ever dreamed. ungekürzt. Language: English.
