    The Book of Joan , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min
    In the near future, world wars have transformed the earth into a battleground. Fleeing the unending violence and the planet's now-radioactive surface, humans have regrouped to a mysterious platform known as CIEL, hovering over their erstwhile home. The changed world has turned evolution on its head: the surviving humans have become sexless, hairless, pale-white creatures floating in isolation, inscribing stories upon their skin. Out of the ranks of the endless wars rises Jean de Men, a charismatic and bloodthirsty cult leader who turns CIEL into a quasi-corporate police state. A group of rebels unite to dismantle his iron rule - galvanised by the heroic song of Joan, a child-warrior who possesses a mysterious force that lives within her. A riveting tale of destruction and love found in the direst of places, Lidia Yuknavitch's The Book of Joan raises questions about what it means to be human, the fluidity of sex and gender, and the role of art as a means for survival. It's a genre-defying masterpiece that may very well rewire your brain. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Xe Sands.

    Morgan le Fay, sixth-century Queen of Gore and the only major character not killed off by Mark Twain in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, vows revenge upon the Yankee Hank Morgan. She casts a spell to take her to 1879 Connecticut, so she may waylay Sir Boss before he can travel back in time to destroy her world. But the spell misses by 300 miles and 200 years, landing her in the Washington, DC, of 2079, replete with flying limousines, hovering office buildings, virtual-reality television, and sundry other technological marvels. Whatever is a time-displaced queen of magic and minions to do? Why, rebuild her kingdom, of course - two kingdoms, in fact: as Campaign Boss for the reelection of American President Malory Beckham Hinton, and as owner of the London Knights world-champion baseball franchise. Written as though by the old master himself, King Arthur's Sister in Washington's Court by Mark Twain as channeled by Kim Iverson Headlee offers laughs, love, and a candid look at American society, popular culture, politics, baseball...and the human heart. ungekürzt.

    Formensprache konstruktivistischer ArchitekturChristine Erhard (geb. 1969 in Crailsheim, lebt und arbeitet in Düsseldorf) setzt sich in fotografischen Arbeiten mit der Abbildungsgeschichte von Architektur, namentlich der des Neuen Bauens, des Konstruktivismus und des Brutalismus auseinander. Ar-chivbesuche sind Ausgangspunkte für ihre Bildfindungen. Überwiegend greift sie auf Fotografien zurück, die architektonische Räume oder Stadtlandschaften zeigen. In Ausstellungen werden Erhards Bilder mit installativen Anordnungen in den realen Raum zurückgeführt und so in einer Dialektik von Bild und Raum erfahrbar gemacht. Das fotografische Bild wird in diesen Installationen zum Körper, der zwischen flächi-gem Ornament, räumlichem Illusionismus und Skulptur changiert.Die umfangreiche Monografie zeigt die wichtigsten Werke und neue Arbeiten der Künstlerin. Die Texte schrieben Christin Müller und Prof. Dr. Georg Imdahl.The Formal Vocabulary of Constructivist Architecture The photographer Christine Erhard's (b. Crailsheim, 1969; lives and works in Düssel-dorf) work delves into the history of the depiction of architecture, and specifically of early-twentieth-century German modernism and constructivist and brutalist structures. Her compositions are inspired by archival research, in which she unearths photographs that typically show architectonic spaces, modernist buildings, or cityscapes. In exhibi-tions, Erhard arranges her pictures in installations that transpose them back into three dimensions, for a vivid experience of the dialectical interplay between depiction and physical space. The photographic image emerges in these installations as a body hovering between flat ornament, the illusion of depth, and sculptural presence.The extensive monograph gathers the artist's most important works as well as new pieces. With essays by Christin Müller and Prof. Dr. Georg Imdahl.

    Tangled Threads: Elemental Assassin, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 616min
    I'd rather face a dozen lethal assassins any night than deal with something as tricky, convoluted, and fragile as my feelings. But here I am. Gin Blanco, the semi-retired assassin known as the Spider. Hovering outside sexy businessman Owen Grayson's front door like a nervous teenage girl. One thing I like about Owen: he doesnt shy away from my past - or my present. And right now I have a bulls-eye on my forehead. Cold-blooded Fire elemental Mab Monroe has hired one of the smartest assassins in the business to trap me. Elektra LaFleur is skilled and efficient, with deadly electrical elemental magic as potent as my own Ice and Stone powers. Which means there's a 50-50 chance one of us won't survive this battle. "I intend to kill LaFleur - or die trying - because Mab wants the assassin to take out my baby sister, Detective Bria Coolidge, too. The only problem is, Bria has no idea I'm her long-lost sibling... or that I'm the murderer she's been chasing through Ashland for weeks. And what Bria doesn't know just might get us both dead." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lauren Fortgang. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/003096/bk_adbl_003096_sample.mp3.

    Drowning in Green Eyes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 19min, (USK 18)
    Fans of The Twilight Zone series will enjoy this "short ride to the other side" - an erotic tale of suspense and surprise.Excerpt from the book:"Of course, I knew what was going to happen. Standing on a river bank, following the blue Toyota pickup truck on the other side with my eyes. Way too fast. The laws of physics said it was impossibly fast for the road it careened down. Then, the sharp right turn before the bridge. I'd seen this movie before, hadn't I? Slow motion, no happy ending on the replay, no matter how much I might wish it so. The rocking back and forth, the two wheel balancing act for one second, two seconds, and then three - until it flipped over. Over and over again, tumbling its way down the hill toward where the water waited, welcoming.Why was there no sound? I didn't hear a splash; the truck seemed to penetrate the water like a determined diver; no hesitation. No bouncing or hovering on the surface. The water parted, accepted the dented metal and quickly closed over it. Barely a ripple disturbed the surface, and the day was still again." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Anne Valliere.
