The Enchanter Heir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 866min
They called it the Thorn Hill Massacre - the brutal attack on a once-thriving Weir community. Though Jonah Kinlock lived through it, he did not emerge unscathed: like the other survivors Jonah possesses unique magical gifts that set him apart from members of the mainline guilds. At seventeen, Jonah has become the deadliest assassin in Nightshade, a network that hunts the undead. Emma Claire Greenwood grew up worlds away, raised by a grandfather who taught her music rather than magic. An unschooled wild child, she runs the streets until the night she finds her grandfather dying, gripping a note warning Emma that she might be in danger. The clue he leaves behind leads Emma into Jonah's life - and a shared legacy of secrets and lingering questions. Was Thorn Hill really a peaceful commune? Or was it, as the Wizard Guild claims, a hotbed of underguild terrorists? The Wizards' suspicions grow when members of the mainline guilds start turning up dead. They blame Nightshade, bringing tensions between the groups to a head. Racing against time, Jonah and Emma work to uncover the truth about Thorn Hill, amid increasing concern that whoever planned the Thorn Hill Massacre might strike again. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Apartment 1986 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 297min
Best-selling middle grade author Lisa Papademetriou is back with a playful, poignant story that will resonate with anyone who's ever had to learn that love means accepting people - even yourself - for who they really are. Callie never meant to let it go this far. Sure, she may have accidentally-on-purpose skipped a day at her fancy New York City prep school, but she never thought she'd skip the day after that! And the one after that...and...uh...the one after that. But when everything in your real life is going wrong (fighting parents! bullied little brother! girls at school who just. don't. get. it!) skipping school starts to look like a valid mental-health strategy. And when Callie runs into Cassius, a mysterious and prickly "unschooled" kid doing research at museums all across the city, it seems only natural for her to join him. Because museums are educational, which means they're as good as going to class. Right? Besides, school can wait. What can't wait is the mystery of why her grandmother seems to wish she could travel back in time to 1986 or what she wants so much to relive there. As Cassius helps Callie see the world in a whole new light, she realizes that the people she loves are far from perfect - and that some family secrets shouldn't be secret at all. ungekürzt.

The Life and Faith of St. Catherine of Siena, Hörbuch, Digital, 308min
Catherine of Siena (1347 - 1380) is one of the most beloved saints of the Christian tradition. In this captivating course, you will explore her life, faith, and works under the guidance of Sr. Suzanne Noffke, OP, PhD, an internationally acclaimed expert on Catherine. One of 25 children of a Tuscan wool-dyer guildsman and his irascible wife, Catherine was unschooled and had a humble upbringing. Despite her lack of formal education, her mind was too sharp and her heart too honest to settle for a blind embrace of doctrine. Instead, she would spend her short 33 years of life in a deliberate and contemplative quest for the fullness of truth and love in Christ. In The Life and Faith of St. Catherine of Siena, you will follow this headstrong woman on her inspiring journey of love. You will trace this journey through 12 erudite yet accessible lectures, beginning with a brief introduction to her life, times, and writings. Then, you will study in-depth her Dialogue and Letters, as well as her foundations in Scripture. Finally, you will progress through a series of prominent themes in her thought and spirituality: Christ as Teacher, Redeemer, and Mediator; her mysticism and her approach to contemplation as the integrating force in life; her quest for faith with understanding; and her convictions regarding her Church, her world, the common good, and time and eternity. Catherine's questing heart and radical faith will inspire you today just as they have guided countless others in centuries past. Language: English. Narrator: Suzanne Noffke.

Who is Jesus?: An Introduction to Christology, Hörbuch, Digital, 422min
What does it really mean to say Jesus' life, death, and resurrection "saved" us from our sins? How is one to think about other world religions, given the claims of the Catholic Church about the uniqueness of Jesus Christ's role in the salvation of all of human history? Through this unique series, you will discover extraordinary answers to these questions and others from Scripture and 2,000 years of tradition. This series will address the fundamental issues of the Catholic faith in a directly relevant way. It is astonishing that an unschooled peasant from a town in an insignificant portion of Israel who, at the most, was publicly active for three short years became arguably the single most important individual who has ever belonged to the human race. Through this series of lectures, you will explore the development of the Catholic understanding of the meaning of Jesus Christ. This area of theology, called Christology, forms a central place in the more general area of theological thought called systematic theology. You will trace Christian thinking of Jesus Christ from the days of his ministry in first-century Palestine through the days of the early church, the medieval period, the reformation, and modern time. People of the Christian faith profess that Jesus is fully human and fully divine while distinguishing him from God the Father and the Holy Spirit. Jesus, Christians affirm, was one personal reality webbed into the whole human race, the planet earth, and the entire cosmos. Explore what this means. Who is Jesus? Language: English.

The Triumphs of Justine: The Four Knights, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 713min
Justine de Montclaire has always idolized her father, decrying the fact that she is a female, wishing she could be a strong, noble knight. She is well past the age when she should be married, has entertained numerous suitors, and found all of them unacceptable. Her mother and father are desperate. But the de Montclaire family has one big advantage: They are among the handful of most powerful Norman leaders. When an opportunity to arrange a marriage between Justine and Lionel d'Auberge arises - an alliance between two families that would be highly advantageous - her parents jump at the chance.And so it is that Lionel journeys to meet and woo Justine. He arrives and is led to the training fields where de Montclaire’s army is sharpening their swordsmanship skills. Imagine his surprise when a soldier is summoned, and he discovers it is Justine. She is in full armor, covered with sweat and grime. Justine is mortified, sure that he will reject her...the first man she would entertain marrying. For the first time in her life, she wants a man and feels the stirrings of her gender. Yet, she is too naïve and unschooled in the art of a woman’s wiles to know what to do. Ironically, Lionel is drawn to this strange woman, drawn by the prospect of discovering her, and encouraged by the power of an alliance with de Montclaire. So begins Justine's transformation from knight to lady. Ah, but the process is not quickly and easily accomplished. Justine must fight a number of obstacles and triumph in order to find peace, love, and happiness. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ann Osmond.

Alternative Healing Through Chromotherapy: A Guide to How Color Therapy Can Energize Your Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 45min
Chromotherapy, or color therapy, is a method of therapy that is done using color. In itself color does not heal, but it has been said that it enables the body to heal itself. It probably has something to do with light, frequency, and vibration and how everything works together to make the whole. That is why color therapy is a form of holistic healing - it aims to see the whole picture. Colors have different frequencies and vibrations and even correspond to a certain note on the musical scale. We have heard the words: green with envy, in the pink of health, down in the blues, red carpet treatment, and such. Since the mind and emotions are the most powerful energies on earth, people have come to associate colors with emotions and vice-versa, In order to better understand how color affects our lives, let us see how it has evolved from the simple consciousness of early man to how we have come to use it now in our daily lives. Humans are a feeling species. Before there was science, there was already feeling. There was observation. People of old had fantastic basic survival skills. It's eat or be eaten. It means having to pit against huge animals like dinosaurs. Unschooled as people may have been in the early days, we cannot really discount their ingenious contribution to the advancement we are now experiencing. They pretty much laid the foundation for the comforts and knowledge we are now enjoying. They were great observers and appreciators of nature. These hardy people were in touch with nature, with the elements. It must have been a really tough existence with no comfort or luxury as we are enjoying right now. Theirs was a survival consciousness. They literally had to plant their ears on the ground and feel any unusual vibration or turbulence for that surely signaled earth movement or animal movement, consequently endangering their safety. Their ideas were astute observations about the things that happened each day as they interacted ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Julie Eickhoff.

Allegiance: Star Wars Legends , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 766min
Never before has the incendiary mix of action, politics, and intrigue that has become Timothy Zahn’s trademark, been more evident that in this new Star Wars epic. On the heels of the stunning events chronicled in Star Wars: A New Hope, the newly minted heroes of the Rebellion - fledgling Jedi Luke Skywalker, smuggler turned reluctant freedom-fighter Han Solo, and Princess Leia Organa, a bold leader with a world to avenge - must face the harsh realities of the cataclysmic conflict into which they have so bravely plunged. From this point forward, legends will grow, treachery will abound, and lives will be irrevocably altered, in the long, hard fight to counter the fist of tyranny and restore hope to a galaxy too long in darkness. The destruction of the Death Star by the Rebel Alliance was a decisive blow against the Empire, but Palpatine and his monstrous enforcer, Darth Vader, are no less of a threat. The brutal extermination of Alderaan not only demonstrated the magnitude of their murderous power, but served as a chilling testament to their resolve to crush the Rebel uprising. Standing against them, Skywalker, Solo, and the Princess remain uncertain opponents. Luke is gifted and brave, but unschooled in the power he possesses. Han has doubts about waging someone else’s war - and his contentiousness is one more burden for Leia to bear as she struggles to help keep the Rebellion alive. The three have been sent to mediate a dispute between Rebel Alliance factions in Shelsha Sector - agitating matters by forcing Han to deal not only with pirates, but with his more dreaded enemy, politics. At the same time, Mara Jade - all of eighteen and years away from her fateful meeting with Luke - is serving her evil master, Palpatine, well in her role as the Emperor’s Hand: tracking suspected treachery in the Empire to what may be high places - while trying to stay out of Darth Vader’s way. But the Rebels will prove to be only one of the Empire’s concerns. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Marc Thompson.
