Then his housekeeper's granddaughter was kidnapped and Mac was plunged into a conspiracy born from the hells, involving an exiled Central American dictator, the Company, and fifty innocent children.

    Hairless
    Razors, tweezers, wax and hair removal creams: these are the tools for the initiation rites that signal the passage from girl to woman. Today the only acceptable places for a woman to have hair are on her head (preferably long), her eyebrows (not too wild) and eyelashes (not too sparse). All kinds of cosmetics are sold to achieve the desired effect of localized luxuriance. At the same time, the industry of removing hair everywhere else on the body advances relentlessly. Hair is no longer a sign of joy but a battleground of cosmetic surgery.In this short book, the Catalan writer Bel Olid draws on personal experience to dismantle preconceived ideas about the supposed benefits of waxing and shaving, and to lay bare the social penalties that are meted out to any woman who allows their body hair to grow. With clarity and courage, Bel Olid exposes the contradictions and hidden costs of hair removal, and issues a rousing call to women everywhere to set themselves free from the urge to please everyone else and to focus, instead, on what pleases them.

In The Fairy's Mistake, two very different sisters have two very different encounters with the fairy Ethelinda. Rosella is kind and helpful. Her reward: Jewels and gems tumble out of her mouth whenever she speaks. Myrtle is rude and spiteful. Her punishment: Bugs and vipers slither out of her mouth. The fairy Ethelinda feels she's meted out justice just right - until she discovers Rosella has been locked up by a greedy prince and Myrtle is having the time of her life! ungekürzt.

    Worthy of Prometheus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 134min
    A fantasy adventure with elements of science fiction, Worthy of Prometheus delves into Greek mythology to tell the tale of Hephaestus, artisan and metal worker of the gods, who is about to take a risk that is literally worthy of the great Titan himself. Hephaestus is at the verge of introducing to humanity a game-changing invention that will alter the course of civilization forever. But this gift to the human race will likely bring on the full wrath of Zeus. Terrified of punishment, Hephaestus nonetheless plods gallantly forward in secret, determined to improve the lot of mankind. His wife Aphrodite, however, throws the proverbial wrench into the works by first spying on, then informing against, her crippled but brilliant husband. Confronted by Zeus for his crime, Hephaestus is meted out a punishment both novel and completely unexpected. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: PeterWhiteVoices.
