Kings of Queens: Life Beyond Baseball with the '86 Mets , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 552min

In 1986, the bad guys of baseball won the World Series. Now, Erik Sherman, the New York Times best-selling coauthor of Mookie, profiles key players from that infamous Mets team, revealing never-before-exposed details about their lives after that championship year...as well as a look back at the magical season itself. Darryl Strawberry, Doc Gooden, Keith Hernandez, Lenny Dykstra, Mookie Wilson, Howard Johnson, Doug Sisk, Rafael Santana, Bobby Ojeda, Wally Backman, Kevin Mitchell, Ed Hearn, Danny Heep, and the late Gary Carter were all known for their heroics on the field. For some of them - known as the "Scum Bunch" - their debauchery off the field was even more awe inspiring. But when that golden season ended, so did their aura of invincibility. Some faced battles with addiction, some were traded, and others struggled just to keep their lives together. Through interviews with these legendary players, Erik Sherman offers fans a new perspective on a team that will forever be remembered in sports history. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Rest If You Must, but Don't You Quit , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 272min

There are times in life when quitting makes sense. Maybe you need to abandon a bad investment, or ditch an old garden because you're going to move to the city. Maybe you need to rest up a bit at the end of a tough day's work so you aren't too sore tomorrow. But when it comes to the deepest dreams of your heart's desire - no, it doesn't make sense. Don't quit. There is only one true human superpower we possess. It's not the power of flight. It certainly isn't the power of invincibility - anyone who's ever failed can tell you that! It's determination. The ability to press on when you are tempted to quit. That is the one and only superpower you will ever have. And the good news is that it's free. It's just not easy. Especially when the world around you doesn't seem like it wants to accommodate your determination. And because quitting sometimes does make sense (such as stopping a workout after an injury), how can you tell whether or not it's really time to give up? This audiobook has the answer to that question. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Pratt, Marguerite Gavin.

Perfekt Control: The Ære Saga, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 483min

Rule the realms. Brynn Aksel is a valkyrie - a battle goddess tasked with protecting both the God of War and the future of Asgard. She fends off giants and dark elves with an iron fist, a glossy smile, and no less than perfekt control. She's focused one-hundred percent on rising through the valkyrie ranks, and not at all on her lifelong crush on Henrik Andersson - the one guy in all the realms who could be her undoing. Henrik serves as War's other bodyguard, and he's too focused on protecting their shared charge to realize that Brynn's a girl. When an unprecedented surge of darkness abducts the Goddess of Love, Brynn's already-steely focus is singularly directed on her new assignment - accompany Henrik to recover the realms' source of light before the cosmos descends into chaos. While battling demons, dragons, and the not-quite dead, it becomes clear that immortality does not equal invincibility. And when Hel herself puts a hit on Brynn, the valkyrie has to decide if staying in control is worth losing everything for...or if it's time to rule the realms. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Night Terrors: Learn How Night Terrors Differ from Nightmares , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 49min

You're about to discover the difference between night terrors and nightmares, and what you can do to prevent them. A nightmare is a dream that takes place during REM sleep. But this dream causes intense feelings of fear, invincibility, terror, distress, or extreme anxiety. These feelings usually awake little babies dreaming nightmares, with total or partial remembrance of what they dreamed. A night terror is an episode of extreme fear during sleep, with no remembrance of the dream itself. The child awakes screaming and crying, without knowing what he dreamed, being unable to say what scared him so badly and having a state of horror that is likely to persist even after apparently awake. Unlike nightmares, night terrors occur during non-REM sleep (dreamless sleep.) Children wake up sweating, with a rapid pulse and frightened. They are not aware of what is around them and don't respond to attempts of calming them. The crisis may last from 10, 15, or 30 minutes. The good thing is that there are children who fall asleep immediately after the crisis ended. And most of the times, children don't remember what scared them in their sleep. But in rare cases, they remember some fragmentary picture of the "dream". ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeff Werden.

Mermaid in a Bowl of Tears , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1769min

The long-awaited sequel to Exit Unicorns opens in the autumn of 1969. Casey and Pamela Riordan have fled the erupting violence of Belfast, Northern Ireland, only to find themselves tangled in the web of political corruption that permeates South Boston. Here, a man's life can hang upon the whim of another, and neighborhood politics and organized crime are one and the same. While Pamela appears to flourish in the arena of Boston Irish society, Casey struggles to survive in a sphere where his presence has become increasingly inconvenient. Betrayed and blackmailed by friend and foe, the Riordans are forced to make desperate choices that bear heavy consequences. In the wake of tragedy, they return to Ireland and an alliance with James Kirkpatrick. It is here the bonds of love are tested - by the bloody price of rebellion, a past that is fraught with dangers of its own, friendships that carry a steep price, and a secret that threatens to tear their lives apart. Set against the backdrop of the gritty streets of Southie and the heartbreaking beauty of Ireland, Mermaid in a Bowl of Tears is a tale of the invincibility of the human spirit, imbued with the passion, humor, and magic inherent to the Emerald Isle. ungekürzt.

The Untold Want: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 402min

What would you do if the bible was law, and you didn't fit in? My name is Catianna Breaker. I live in a community that lives by the word of the Lord, and unquestioningly obeys the laws of the Bible. My father was a Gatekeeper, a soldier of God who enforces these laws and dispenses justice as our Prophet sees fit. I'm a painter, and an average student. I help my Aunt Shelly run a pottery store after school. I'm sixteen years old, and I'm dying. When you're sixteen, nothing could possibly happen to you. Things happen to friends of friends, to relatives or complete strangers, but not to you. Strip that away, and you lose something inside of you. It's the spark of youth that adults often refer to in reminiscence, something that makes every young boy and girl take daring risks, makes them happy-go-lucky and carefree. What you lose is your invincibility. So who am I now? What do I believe in when what I see and hear around me leads to suffering? What path do I follow when the rules I'd clung to for safety seem to turn their fangs on me in my hour of need? This is my story. These are my words. Please, listen, because this will be my only chance. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: K. C. Cowan. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/019681/bk_acx0_019681_sample.mp3.

A Facet for the Gem: The Tale of Eaglefriend, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 571min

In a land of eagle-riding knights, bloodthirsty beasts, and a ruthless prince, no border is safe for long. And as smoke billows from the only blockade standing between the great city of Korindelf and certain doom, young Morlen races to escape the inevitable siege. Thrust from the chaos with thousands of snapping jaws on his trail, he discovers that the abilities he's buried all his life are awakening - and it could not have happened at a worse time. War has come, and he doesn't dare rely on his untested talents after stealing the coveted Goldshard, which makes strength and invincibility just a panicked whisper away. His dependency on it carries him through many dangers, until it becomes an enemy far worse than those he must fight hand-to-hand. And the allies he meets on his quest are just as troubled: a legendary warrior too afraid to leave his sheltered paradise, a wizard tormented by his past, and a disgraced king who has lost any hope of saving his people. A Facet for the Gem is a coming-of-age fantasy that brings Morlen from distant kingdoms to sprawling airborne battles, into the fiery breath of a stony dragon and side-by-side with a lady knight who is the last person in need of rescue. Follow him as his epic adventures culminate in a final showdown against swords, fangs, and greatest of all: his own fear. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James Foster.
