She's the fiercest lass in all the Highlands. Can he measure up? Dyna Grant is the fiercest lass in the Highlands, but she has one weakness: her grandsire, the renowned Alexander Grant. So when the English threaten his life - again - she volunteers to escort him to safety, even if she has to accept the company of Derric Corbett to do so. A warrior who moves from place to place, battle to battle, Derric never thought he would marry. And yet, Dyna is no ordinary lass and his feelings for her are undeniable. Derric can’t plan a future with her until he reckons with his past, but he also can’t bring himself to step away. So when he’s given an opportunity to travel with her and Alex, he immediately takes it. Their purpose is simple, but the journey soon spirals out of control, each challenge sparking more contention - and passion - between Derric and Dyna. Fate seems to keep throwing them together, but can two such fierce, solitary souls find a way to coexist? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Woodson.

Dust and Light: Sanctuary, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1223min
National best-selling author Carol Berg returns to the world of her award-winning Flesh and Spirit and Breath and Bone with an all-new tale of magic, mystery, and corruption.... How much must one pay for an hour of youthful folly? The Pureblood Registry accused Lucian de Remeni-Masson of "unseemly involvement with ordinaries", which meant only that he spoke with a young woman not of his own kind, allowed her to see his face unmasked, worked a bit of magic for her.... After that one mistake, Lucian’s grandsire excised half his magic and savage Harrowers massacred his family. Now the Registry has contracted his art to a common coroner. His extraordinary gift for portraiture is restricted to dead ordinaries - beggars or starvelings hauled from the streets. But sketching the truth of dead men’s souls brings unforeseen consequences. Sensations not his own. Truths he cannot possibly know and dares not believe. The coroner calls him a cheat and says he is trying to weasel out of a humiliating contract. The Registry will call him mad - and mad sorcerers are very dangerous.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: MacLeod Andrews.

MALPERTUIS
Cassavius, der Besitzer des Hauses Malpertuis, stirbt. Seinen versammelten Erben stellt er ein gewaltiges Vermögen in Aussicht - geknüpft an die Bedingung, sich bis zu ihrem Lebensende in Malpertuis niederzulassen. Und so findet sich in Malpertuis, das in seiner bedrohlichen Präsenz zu einem Alptraum-Gefängnis wird, eine Reihe von sehr verschiedenen, zumeist grotesken Gestalten zusammen: Jan Grandsire, der Großneffe Cassavius', und seine Schwester Nancy, sein Onkel Charles Dideloo, dessen Frau Sylvie und deren Tochter Euryale, die Schwestern Cormélon, das Hausmeister-Ehepaar Griboin, der Präparator Philarètte, der Arzt Sambucque und Mathias Crook.Was Jan nicht ahnt: Vor vielen Jahren hat Cassavius die letzten der antiken griechischen Götter von einer geheimnisvollen Insel entführt und nach Malpertuis verschleppt, wo sie nun - von Philarètte in menschliche Körper gezwungen - ihrer einstigen Macht beraubt dahinvegetieren...Jean Rays Roman Malpertuis, eine bizarre Phantasmagorie, die erstmals 1952 veröffentlicht wurde, gilt als Klassiker der modernen Phantastischen Literatur. Christian Dörges Neu-Übersetzung rückt den Roman näher an Harry Kümels kongeniale gleichnamige Verfilmung aus dem Jahr 1971 heran und verdeutlicht, dass aus Sicht des 21. Jahrhunderts Film und literarische Vorlage längst zu einem untrennbaren Gesamtkunstwerk verschmolzen sind.Ergänzt wird diese Neu-Ausgabe aus dem Apex-Verlag um ein Essay von Film-Experte Dr. Rolf Giesen.- Shop: buecher

And yet, he cannot help but wonder if fate has reached for him at last when his grandsire sends him to MacLintock Castle to help Emmalin MacLintock, the very lass who has possessed his thoughts.

Her heart longs for a different life, a life in which she leads her people and a handsome, strong Highlander stands by her side. A Highlander like Alasdair Grant. When the baron dies unexpectedly, Emmalin is relieved, but that feeling quickly fades when an English garrison shows up to storm her castle. Worse, there’s evidence someone in her life might be in league with them. Alasdair and one of his cousins arrive in Emmalin’s hour of need, giving Emmalin a glimpse of what life might be like with him by her side.
