    The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection: or, The Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1389min
    The Origin of Species sold out on the first day of its publication in 1859. It is the major book of the 19th century and one of the most readable and accessible of the great revolutionary works of the scientific imagination. Though, in fact, little read, most people know what it says—at least they think they do. The Origin of Species was the first mature and persuasive work to explain how species change through the process of natural selection. Upon its publication, the book began to transform attitudes about society and religion and was soon used to justify the philosophies of communists, socialists, capitalists, and even Germany’s National Socialists. But the most quoted response came from Thomas Henry Huxley, Darwin’s friend and also a renowned naturalist, who exclaimed, “How extremely stupid not to have thought of that!" ungekürzt.

    Ball Don't Lie: Myth, Genealogy, and Invention in the Cultures of Basketball , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 483min
    Pro basketball player Rasheed Wallace often exclaimed the pragmatic truth "Ball don't lie!" during a game. It is a protest against a referee's bad calls. But the slogan, which originated in pickup games, brings the reality of a racialized urban playground into mainstream American popular culture. In Ball Don't Lie!, Yago Colás traces the various forms of power at work in the intersections between basketball and language from the game's invention to the present day. He critiques existing popular myths concerning the history of basketball, contextualizes them, and presents an alternative history of the sport inspired by innovations. Colás emphasizes the creative prerogative of players and the ways in which their innovations shape - and are shaped by - broader cultural and social phenomena. Ball Don't Lie! shows that basketball cannot be reduced to a single, fixed, or timeless essence but instead is a continually evolving exhibition of physical culture that flexibly adapts to and sparks changes in American society. ungekürzt.

    13th Child: Jersey Devil, Hörbuch, Digital, 59min
    The Jersey Devil is a legendary creature said to inhabit the Pine Barrens of South New Jersey. The Devil is often described as a flying biped with hooves, but there have been several variations encountered by many eyewitnesses over the last 300 years. In 1735, a woman known as Mother Leeds gave birth to her 13th child on a stormy night surrounded by friends (who some claim were witches) who exclaimed "May it be the Devil." The baby appeared normal at birth, but changed into a monster shortly thereafter, growling and shrieking before killing the midwife and then flying up the chimney. It was later seen circling the villages and disappearing into the pines. Take an in-depth look at New Jersey’s official “State Demon” from the myths to the facts with authors, experts, paranormal researchers, and reluctant eyewitnesses who have recently seen the creature.

    Snatched Up to Heaven! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 159min
    I had a dream about heaven! exclaimed Priyanka. Running up to her mom one morning, four-year-old Priyanka nonchalantly mentioned that Jesus had taken her and her two-year-old sister Deepika to heaven during the previous night. In the days that followed, the sisters amazed their parents with their vivid descriptions of what they saw and experienced in heaven and hell over the course of several visits there. Within the constraints of their limited preschool vocabulary, the girls described deep theological truths about eternity that often belied their years, speaking with remarkable clarity and boldness. Their mom initially recorded their testimonies in a written journal as well as a video log. Now, for the first time, "Snatched Up to Heaven" documents their true accounts alongside the purifying lens of the Word of God. While much of the narrative focuses on our after-life destinies, Snatched Up to Heaven will give you a fresh perspective on how to live a life of eternal significance today. ungekürzt.

    Killer Bedtime Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 7min
    Billy and Susan loved to hear their father read stories to them every night at bedtime. Susan told her brother, Billy, that the stories were for little kids. Susan said, "Billy I love dad, but I wish he would read scary stories to us instead of stories like Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland. They were okay when we were younger, but we are so much older now." "I feel the same way. I like it when mother and father go out to dinner at night so we can watch scary movies together," replied Billy. "Next time we spend the night with grandma, maybe we can sneak out of bed and see if she has any old creepy books in her attic. If she does we can give them to our father to read to us instead of those boring stories he's been reading over and over for the past several years!" exclaimed Susan. "Tonight we'll ask him if he'll let us spend the night at grandma's house this weekend. I'm sure he'll say yes," said Billy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ted Brooks.

But they have lied to Moira. She doesn't realize that the path she has chosen will end in the Valley of Lost Dreams. The Doorkeeper didn't stop the children with his usual question, do you really want to see the King? Instead, he quickly opened the door just in time for the army of children to race through. They slid down the shining hallway not for fun today, but just because it was faster than walking and flung themselves through the door of the Throne Room. King, King! Seeker cried out. Moira left the Kingdom! I know the King said quietly. You know?! Seeker exclaimed. Then why don't you do something?! You have to go and get her and make her come back! The King shook his head.

    Tender Is the Night , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 756min
    Published in 1934, Tender Is the Night was one of the most talked-about books of the year. "It's amazing how excellent much of it is," Ernest Hemingway said to Maxwell Perkins. "I will say now," John O'Hara wrote Fitzgerald, "Tender Is the Night is in the early stages of being my favorite book, even more than This Side of Paradise." And Archibald MacLeish exclaimed: "Great God, Scott...You are a fine writer. Believe it - not me." Set on the French Riviera in the late 1920s, Tender Is the Night is the tragic romance of the young actress Rosemary Hoyt and the stylish American couple Dick and Nicole Diver. A brilliant young psychiatrist at the time of his marriage, Dick is both husband and doctor to Nicole, whose wealth goads him into a lifestyle not his own, and whose growing strength highlights Dick's harrowing demise. A profound study of the romantic concept of character - lyrical, expansive, and hauntingly evocative - Tender Is the Night, Mabel Dodge Luhan remarked, raised F. Scott Fitzgerald to the heights of a "modern Orpheus". ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Therese Plummer. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/003250/bk_adbl_003250_sample.mp3.

    Water, Water, Everywhere Book 2: The Down Pour Tea Party in the Carport: Frog's Tales, Volume 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 50min
    Frog is back, and he has lost his glasses. He is excited when Allis and Elsa invite him to his first tea party. Allis and Elsa set up the tea party in the carport out of the rain, and Frog makes sure the tea party doesn't get boring.  "I am going to the carport," Allis said. "Would you like to join me?"  "Why sure," said Frog and leaped with joy into the nearest large puddle. He came up sputtering and swam to the edge. He turned immediately and leaped into the puddle again. I paused while the umbrella caused the water to splash off in every direction but on me, thankfully, and watched as he resurfaced, swam to the edge, and leaped into the puddle again. "Oh, drats!" he exclaimed as he came up to the surface.  "Whatever are you doing?" I asked him, puzzled.  "I've lost my glasses somewhere, and I may never find them. I think I lost them in this puddle," he said.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Leslie Gray Robbins. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/101351/bk_acx0_101351_sample.mp3.
