Dominant Species (2nd Edition 4th print) (engl.)
90,000 B.C. â A great Ice Age is fast approaching. Another titanic struggle for global supremacy has unwittingly commenced between the varying animal species.Dominant Species is a game for 2 to 6 players that abstractly recreates a tiny portion of ancient history: the ponderous encroachment of an Ice Age and what that entails for the living creatures trying to adapt to the slowly-changing Earth.Each player will assume the role of one of six major Animal groupsâMammal, Reptile, Bird, Amphibian, Arachnid or Insect. Each begins the game in a state of natural balance with regards to one another. But that wonât last: It is indeed survival of the fittest.âThrough wily Action Pawn placement, players will strive to become Dominant on as many different Terrain tiles as possible in order to draw beneficial Dominance Cards. Players will also want to propagate their individual Species in order to earn Victory Points for his particular Animal. Players will be aided in these endeavors via Growth, Migration and Domination actions, among others.All of this eventually leads to the end game - the final ascent of the Ice Age - where the player with the most Victory Points will have his Animal crowned the Dominant Species.But somebody better become dominant quickly, because itâs getting mighty coldâ¦."- Shop: Milan-Spiele

A Mansion and its Murder , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 404min
Sarah Jane Fearing, the sole offspring of a father who desperately wants a male heir, has grown up in the imposing rural mansion of one of England’s most influential banking families. At the centre of Sarah’s world stands her charming, generous uncle Frank, the only relative who seems to have escaped the straitjacket of ponderous respectability that so effectively stifles the Fearing family. Frank’s rebellions afford Sarah hope, until his extravagant lifestyle leads him deeper into debt and manoeuvres him into a disastrous marriage. Frank’s wedding to a coldly ambitious woman produces the family’s longed-for male scion, but the parents fall to quarrels, and then to murder. And Sarah is drawn inexorably into a morass that threatens the survival of the entire family. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Julia Franklin.

Lord Jim , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 934min
Jim, the first mate aboard a small steamer named the Patna, travels from port to port in the Pacific Ocean. When the ship hits floating wreckage, Jim and the crew are forced to abandon it, leaving hundreds of ethnic travelers onboard. However, Jim's reprehensible actions are soon discovered by the court, and he is compelled to face his guilt and redeem himself - a journey that leads him to a remote exotic location where he is revered as the Lord, "Tuan Jim".

Hand-to-Hand: Decoy, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 693min
Twisted genius... He likes hands. He likes their comfortable shape and weight and size. He likes the portability of the hands once they are severed from the rest of the ponderous body. He might carry them in his coat pocket, carry them to where he works, to the cafe, the park. But really, The Handyman isn't a selfish sort, the hands are for someone else, someone without proper hands of their own. And besides, the "donors" never felt any pain, they barely even bled. The Handyman had worked out every detail. Chicago Police Detective Ryne Lanark figured out the handless corpse probably deserved what he got, that he had violated some sacred code. When a second handless body was found, Lanark knew there would be more, that the slaughter was just beginning. Forensics warned him that the killer was brilliant - amazingly, the victims died of heart attack, not blood loss. As the body count rises, lunatics from all over Chicago begin confessing to the murders. Then, a woman claiming to have escaped The Handyman comes forward. Her description is too precise to be faked. She could be the key to the whole case...or bait set by the Handyman. Either way, Lanark will meet The Handyman...alone. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ellery Truesdell.
