The Dunwich Horror (Dramatized), Hörbuch, Digital, 60min
Ah, the sweet, sweet singing of the whip-poor-wills. Surely one of the most innocent, purest bird songs one can know, plaintive and perfect in the clean morning light. Unless, of course, you happen to live near the decayed New England village of Dunwich. Unless, of course, you have seen the mad fires blazing from the ancient stone circles atop Sentinel Mountain. And unless, of course, you remember the horrible events of 70 years ago and happen to be familiar with the name "Whately". Then the singing of whip-poor-wills isn't so sweet, and their patient waiting seems anything but innocent. This is a full-cast, soundscaped audio dramatization of a classic work by one of the masters of horror. Language: English. Narrator: Thomas E. Fuller, Bill Jackson, John Johnson.

The Futures Past Present : Jack Manson 1950s, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 161min
A million miles from Earth sits a planet, a beautiful planet. A planet full of life and vegetation and an abundance of resources such as water to fill the needs of its billions of inhabitants. And once upon a time, it was ruled by a king. A powerful king. His intellect and bravery had brought an almost decayed world back into existence, a thriving existence. What should have been death became life. The trees and mountains which were barren now flourished. He was considered a half breed. He was not human. He was...well, he was different. But that did not stop him from achieving the goals he sest before himself. It did not stop him from invading worlds and bringing them under his rule, his mighty rule. He was arrogant, proud, and convinced of his own superiority. And with good reason. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lawrence D. Palmer.

Disappointed by the decayed state of England under Richard II, he visits a tavern inside Eastcheap, where a beggar comes to his table and claims to be Thomas Page, the famous soldier of fortune. Thought to be long-dead, Page was otherwise known as the Half-Hanged Man or the Wolf of Burgundy. Froissart challenges the beggar to recite a convincing version of Page's life, with money and food as a reward if his tale rings true.

The Redneck Way of Knowledge: The Author's Cut , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 306min
This intoxicating book by the author of The Revolution of Little Girls combines autobiography, reporting, and the dressed-up lies we call fiction. An underground classic since its initial publication, it is the wildly funny personal testament of Blanche McCrary Boyd, '60s radical and born-again Southerner, a lesbian with an un-PC passion for skydiving and stock-car racing, a graduate of Esalen and kundalini yoga who now takes her altered states "raw, like oysters".The Redneck Way of Knowledge is about family reunions and kamikaze love affairs. It is about crashing an arts festival with two precociously decayed Charleston aristocrats and watching the pope deliver Communion at Yankee Stadium. It is about the selves we try on and slough off on the way to becoming who we are. Throughout, Blanche Boyd travels the expressway between the realm of the senses and the state of grace and reports on the journey in prose that combines riotous humor, diamond-hard intelligence, and savage lyricism. ungekürzt.

Still Waters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 593min
When the badly decayed body of an elderly woman is unearthed, Detective Chief Inspector Mark Lapslie and his sergeant, Emma Bradbury, are called in on the case. The body provides only two mysterious clues to the identity of the murderer: someone with a deadly knowledge of household plants used shears to clip the fingertips off the corpse's right hand. But this dearth of evidence is not Lapslie's only problem. He's just returned to the force after a year of relative isolation, trying to avoid the worst symptoms of his synasethsia, a neurological condition that causes him to "taste" sound and that makes his life as complicated as any crime he's been charged with solving. Now he's flooded again - not only with the convolution of senses that can drive him nearly mad but also with the increasing convolutions of the case. The murder appears to be the work of a serial killer, and the investigation is leading in a direction that could be extremely detrimental to Lapslie's career, if not to his very life. ungekürzt.
