    Gods of the Sword: Harbinger of Doom -- Volume 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 439min
    The epic Harbinger of Doom saga continues in Gods of the Sword, the exciting sixth volume in the series.  Frem Sorlons' grandmother warned him about the Black Elves. They're otherworldly, evil imps, devoid of morals or conscience; and they'll kill you, as soon as they look at you, she'd say. Until he reached Jutenheim, he never thought he'd meet one outside of her wild stories. He never even thought that they were real. But then one night, the Black Elves came calling and threatened to take not only Frem's life, but also his immortal soul. With his parents and older brothers gone, the only things that Ector Eotrus have left are his Dor and his life. But they're coming to take both. The only question is, who will get there first: the Alders or the trolls? Lord Torbin Malvegil is going to war. War with the Shadow League. War with the Black Hand assassins. And war with the Duergar. Each is a war he cannot hope to win. Each is war he cannot survive. Artol has won most every fight he's been in these last 25 years. On the Isle of Evermere, that streak will come crashing to an end. An end from which only the god of lightning can hope to save him. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gabrielle De Cuir.

    Insider Outsider: My Journey as a Stranger in White Evangelicalism and My Hope for Us All , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 292min
    Pastor Bryan Loritts dives deep into what it's like to be a person of color in predominantly white evangelical spaces today and where we can go from here.God boldly proclaims throughout the Book of Acts that there is no "ethnic home team" when it comes to Christianity. But the minority experience in America today - and throughout history - too often tells a different story.As Loritts writes, "It is impossible to do theology devoid of cultural lenses and expressions. Like an American unaware of their own accent, most whites are unaware of the ethnic theological accent they carry." Insider Outsider bears witness to the true stories that often go untold - stories that will startle, enlighten, and herald a brighter way forward for all seeking belonging in the family of God.This seminal work on race and the church will help Christians discover:How they can learn the art of listening to stories unlike their ownIdentify the problems and pitfalls that keep Sunday morning the most segregated hour of the weekAnd participate in an active movement with God toward a holy vision of what Dietrich Bonhoeffer calls "life together"Drawing on insightful snapshots through history, eye-opening personal experiences, and biblical exposition, Loritts awakens both our minds and hearts to the painful reality of racial divides as well as the hope of forgiveness.  ungekürzt.

    Lord Dismiss Us , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 860min
    Mr. Crabtree has just arrived to take over as headmaster at Weatherhill, an English public school whose reputation is on the decline, and with the help of his meddlesome wife and odious daughter, he is determined to turn things around. But Crabtree is totally devoid of either sympathy or understanding and his misguided efforts lead to hilarious disasters, such as when he invites a girls' school for tea to try to woo the boys from their 'unnatural ways'.  Meanwhile, Mrs Crabtree is infatuated with the chaplain, whose sermons about 'the burning fire' are a source of constant merriment to the boys, and Dr. Kingsly is arranging the annual school play, not thinking of how the homophobic Crabtree will react to seeing the boys dressed as girls.  Yet mixed with the comedy are two private tragedies: Eric Ashley, a brilliant young teacher, is struggling to come to grips with his homosexuality, and Carleton, a senior boy, finds himself strangely drawn to Allen, a fellow member of the cricket team. It all moves inexorably towards a tremendously funny and heartbreakingly sad final day of the school year, when the titular hymn will be sung and more than one character will leave Weatherhill forever....  Widely praised on its initial publication, Lord Dismiss Us (1967) is reprinted here for the first time in three decades. ungekürzt.

    Smaller and Smaller Circles , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 645min
    This harrowing mystery, winner of the Philippine National Book Award, follows two Catholic priests on the hunt through Manila for a brutal serial killer. Payatas, a 50-acre dump northeast of Manila's Quezon City, is home to thousands of people who live off of what they can scavenge there. It is one of the poorest neighborhoods in a city whose law enforcement is already stretched thin, devoid of forensic resources, and rife with corruption. So when the eviscerated bodies of preteen boys begin to appear in the dump heaps, there is no one to seek justice on their behalf. In the rainy summer of 1997, two Jesuit priests take the matter of protecting their flock into their own hands. Father Gus Saenz is a respected forensic anthropologist, one of the few in the Philippines, and has been tapped by the director of the National Bureau of Investigations as a backup for police efforts. Together with his protégé, Father Jerome Lucero, a psychologist, Saenz dedicates himself to tracking down the monster preying on these impoverished boys. Smaller and Smaller Circles, widely regarded as the first Filipino crime novel, is a poetic masterpiece of literary noir, a sensitive depiction of a time and place and a fascinating story about the Catholic Church and its place in its devotees' lives. ungekürzt.

    Theodora: Lady Archer's Creed, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 621min
    Friendship.... Lady Theodora Montgomery departed Miss Emmeline's School of Education and Decorum for Ladies of Outstanding Quality to attend her first London season - her three dearest friends by her side. With her sharp wit and skill on the archery field, Theo is far more interested in winning a large purse prize than securing a husband. But when she is unmasked on the tourney grounds, her face exposed to all, she fears her identity and days spent gallivanting around London will cause not only her undoing, but the downfall of her friends as well. Loyalty.... Mr. Alistair Price, heir to the elderly Viscount Melton, arrived in London with his eight younger siblings in tow. He is charged with keeping his family name above reproach until the season starts and his sister, Miss Adeline Price, is presented to society - though that proves far more difficult than Alistair ever expected when he discovers his rebellious sister climbing down the side of their townhouse and scurrying off to Whitechapel for an archery tournament. His focus remains on saving his family from the certain ruin and disgrace Adeline's actions invited - until Alistair catches sight of another female archer, her arrow connecting with far more than the center of her target. And honor above all.... With Theodora's future - and that of her friends - in jeopardy, will she agree to a marriage devoid of affection, or risk everything for the man who won her heart? ungekürzt.

    Boys , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 438min
    Boys who love boys, who love girls. Twenty-five-year-old Jag Huntington loves straight men. He can't help it. Something about their macho allure intrigues him. But Jag has never even managed to have a straight man as a friend. His best friend, Tyson Hopper, and Tyson's boyfriend, Howard Steinman, invite Jag out for a night with the gay boys and Howard's sister, Virginia. When Virginia brings her straight boyfriend, Carson Phelps, Jag's attraction to the 30-year-old stud is instant. But there is not mutual attraction, not even curiosity. It isn't until Virginia insinuates that Jag and Carson should be friends, close friends, that Jag begans to wonder if he has a chance. Carson likes hanging with gay men. They are fun. His straight buddies don't get into dancing, music, or anything he really wants to do. The idea of having a great gay friend appeals to Carson. Self-assured, Carson doesn't flinch at the racy conversation or the sexual overtones of his gay companions' conversation. He likes it. There is something that intrigues both men into crossing the line of friendship into a physical relationship, but for Jag it is devoid of any of the emotional attachment that he craves from Carson. Will Jag and Carson's friendship ever evolve into anything more than a couple of friends, one gay and one straight? Is there really something extra special about a boy who loves boys, who loves girls? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Russil Tamsen.

    Disrupted: Ludicrous Misadventures into the Tech Start-Up Bubble , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 557min
    The shocking and hilarious New York Times best-selling exposé of a new age of excess in Silicon Valley. Dan Lyons was technology editor at Newsweek for years, a magazine writer at the top of his profession. One Friday morning he received a phone call: his job no longer existed. Fifty years old, and with a wife and two young kids, Dan was unemployed and facing financial oblivion. Then an idea hit. Dan had long reported on Silicon Valley and the tech explosion. Why not join it? HubSpot, a Boston start-up, was flush with $100 million in venture capital. They offered Dan a pile of stock options for the nebulous role of 'marketing fellow'. What could possibly go wrong? What follows is a hilarious and excoriating account of Dan's time at the start-up and a revealing window onto the dysfunctional culture that prevails in a world flush with cash and devoid of experience. Filled with stories of meaningless jargon, teddy bears at meetings, push-up competitions and all-night parties, this uproarious tale is also a trenchant analysis of the dysfunctional start-up world, a de facto conspiracy between those who start companies and those who fund them. It is a world where bad ideas are rewarded with hefty investments, where companies blow money lavishing perks on their postcollegiate workforces, and where everybody is trying to hang on just long enough to cash out with a fortune. ungekürzt.

    Spark: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 684min
    Edgy, hard-core, and wildly imaginative, this new thriller from New York Times best-selling author John Twelve Hawks (The Traveler, The Dark River, The Golden City) features an assassin-narrator unlike anyone we've seen before, set in a present-day dystopia. Jacob Underwood is a contract employee of the Special Services Section, a shadow department in the faceless multinational corporation DBG. Jacob is not a businessman...he is a hired assassin...and his job is to neutralize problems deemed unacceptable by the corporation. Jacob is not like other employees, nor is he like other people. Suffering from Cotard's syndrome - a real condition that causes people to believe they are dead - Jacob perceives himself as nothing but a Shell with no emotion and no sense of right or wrong. Emily Buchanan is a bright young second-year associate for DBG, and she has disappeared without a trace. Suspecting she may have stolen valuable information and a fortune from the company, Miss Holquist - Jacob's handler at DBG - assigns him the task of tracking her down and neutralizing her. Jacob's condition allows him to carry out assignments with ruthless, logical precision - devoid of guilt, fear, or dishonor. But as his new assignment draws him inside a labyrinthine network of dark dealings, Jacob finds himself up against something he is completely incapable of understanding. Spark is an ingenious and chilling vision of modern-day humanity under constant, invasive surveillance and a pulse-pounding game of cat and mouse. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Brick.
