Herbie, Hörbuch, Digital, 127min
Every life reaches that crucial intersection, the place where you must choose your fate, or have it chosen for you. For best-selling author Rich Cohen (The Fish That Ate the Whale, The Last Pirate of New York), it came in a writing workshop senior year in college, when, at 17, he had to knuckle under to a ruthless professor or make a righteous, self-defeating stand. The story of that decision and the resulting struggle takes us from the winter streets of Chicago to the candy-colored bars of New Orleans to the glory of late 20th century Manhattan, while raising certain fundamental questions: What’s the difference between constructive and destructive criticism? What can a father do to help his child and when has he gone too far? Is it worth telling a bully to f--k off even if it may determine the direction of the rest of your life? You will meet indelible characters along the way, especially Herbie, the author’s father (author of the classic business book You Can Negotiate Anything) who wears two watches, one on each wrist, because, as he says, "A man with one watch thinks he knows the time, while a man with two watches can never be sure."At once funny and serious, this story is perfect for any parent wanting to help their kids find their way in the world, or for any kid who just wants to be free.

Horrorstories, Hörbuch, Digital, 127min
Was geht in einem Delinquenten vor, während er gehängt wird? Was fühlt ein Soldat, der im Krieg auf seinen eigenen Vater schießen muß, weil dieser in der Armee des Feindes dient? Und was empfindet ein Mann, der einen Puma dabei erwischt, wie er die Leiche seiner Frau fressen will? Wie geht es einem, der von seiner eigenen Waffe bedroht wird - die er selbst gespannt hat? Zu seinen Lebzeiten war Ambrose G. Bierce einer der einflussreichsten Journalisten Amerikas. Seine Geschichten begründeteten das Genre der Horrorgeschichte. Mit keinem Wort zuviel nimmt er dem Hörer in seinen makaber-düsteren Geschichten schier den Atem. deutsch.

Anomaly , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 127min
It's 3:00 am.... While most minds are in a blissful state of slumber, mine is wide awake conjuring and pondering endless thoughts.

These thoughts range from warm and fuzzy to dark and slightly crippling. Sometimes, I wish that my mind had an off switch so that I could power down at night. No such luck. So, wakie wakie!

Napoleon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 127min
The most polarizing man of his era, Napoleon Bonaparte has remained a source of controversy ever since. Did his dictatorship crush the French Revolution, or carry its ideals to their logical conclusion? Was he a conqueror-tyrant who sought war for the sake of glory, or was he forced into conflict to defend his beloved France? Was he a throwback to 16th-century "absolute monarchs", or the great modernizer of 19th-century Europe? Or was he all of these things at once? In this compact, highly listenable biography, Alexander Kennedy examines these questions and more. He traces Napoleon's history back to the bloody hillsides of Corsica, from his rise as a young artillery officer to the summit of greatness. We see at how Napoleon's rule forever changed a continent, but also how his overreach led to his shocking fall from power. To understand the story of Napoleon, Kennedy persuasively shows, is to understand Europe itself - both in Napoleon's era and today. "If you want a thing done well, do it yourself." - Napoleon Bonaparte ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim D Johnston.

Agent 355, Hörbuch, Digital, 127min
From Marie Benedict, best-selling author of The Only Woman in the Room and Lady Clementine, comes a captivating work of historical fiction about a young female spy who may have changed the course of American history. The tide is turning against the colonists in the Revolutionary War, and 18-year-old Elizabeth Morris cannot sit by idly. Quietly disdainful of her Tory parents, who drag her along to society events and welcome a British soldier into their home during their occupation of New York City, Elizabeth decides to take matters into her own hands. She realizes that, as a young woman, no one around her believes that she can comprehend the profound implications of being a nation at war - she is, effectively, invisible. And she can use this invisibility to her advantage. Her unique access to British society leads her to a role with General George Washington's own network of spies: the Culper Ring. Based on true events, Agent 355 combines adventure, romance, and espionage to bring to life this little-known story of a hero who risked her life to fight for freedom against all odds.

Old Firehand, Hörbuch, Digital, 127min
1875 veröffentlicht der junge Schriftsteller Karl May seine ersten Abenteuer, die er im "Wilden Westen" ansiedelt. Die Erzählung "Old Firehand", ein klassisches Racheabenteuer à la May, bietet schon alle klassischen Helden auf: Den edlen Apachen Winnetou, die kauzigen Trapper Sam Hawkens, Dick Stone und Will Parker sowie einen Ich-Erzähler, der starke Züge des Shatterhand trägt. Karl May hat seinen "Firehand" härter und blutiger angelegt als folgende Werke. 40 Jahre lang wurde der fesselnde Ur-Text "aus der Mappe eines Vielgereisten" nicht mehr fürs Hörspiel adaptiert. Hier liegt eine Fassung vor, die dem May-Text so treu folgt wie kein Hörspiel zuvor und ihn mit dem Sound und Spirit von heute veredelt. deutsch.

Reggiecide , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 127min
A fun blend of P.G. Wodehouse, steampunk and a touch of Sherlock Holmes. Guy Fawkes is back, and this time it's a toss up who's going to be blown up first: Parliament or Reginald Worcester, gentleman consulting detective. But Guy might not be the only regicide to have been dug up and reanimated. He might be a mere pawn in a plan of diabolical twistiness. Only a detective with a rare brain - and Reggie's is amongst the rarest - could possibly solve this "five-cocktail problem". With the aid of Reeves, his automaton valet, Emmeline, his suffragette fiancé, and Farquharson, a reconstituted dog with an issue with Anglicans, Reggie sets out to save both Queen Victoria and the Empire. This 19,000-word novella is the sequel to the WSFA Small Press Award finalist What Ho, Automaton! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kieren Phoenix Chantrey.
