    I Ain't Got No Home in This World Anymore , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 322min
    Back in the fictional Northern Ontario city of Lac-Sainte-Catherine, Mike Sauve takes listeners on a round-and-back adventure in the classic tradition of H.G. Wells, where two bumbling time travelers take a sad look at their past(s), their McDonald's issues and blackout binges, and their sentimental pratfalls and romantic flagellations, all to try and find their way home again.In the third nonlinear installment of his L-S-C universe, first with a wraith, then with a plague, and now through time, the author again applies his slapstick sensibilities to the indignities of a small town upbringing, asserting that while our hometowns may have been good places to come from, they remain tricky places to return to - contemptuously, wistfully, or in this case, temporally.  ungekürzt.

    Online Marketing Millionaire: The 7 Deadly Sins of Affiliate Marketing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 38min
    What would you do with an extra year? Author AJ O'Brien knows exactly what he would do. Says O'Brien, "I’d focus on making money, rather than mistakes. Because - I’ve gotten pretty good at this stuff. But at first, I was just bumbling along, not having a clue, spending money on things that didn’t work. The thought of quitting went through my mind more times than I can tell you." AJ adds that mistakes are simply part of the deal. He couldn’t avoid them, and he doesn't think you can either. But - you have the opportunity of at least knowing what they are, so that if you go down a wrong path you can realize it sooner rather than later. Most of the time AJ prefers to show people what works. But knowing what doesn’t work can be just as valuable. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: AJ O'Brien. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/171504/bk_acx0_171504_sample.mp3.

    Ivyland: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 461min
    It's spring in Ivyland... Debut novelist Miles Klee takes a landscape of drugs, decay, loss and, perhaps, hope, and manages to make the ensemble wryly funny: something only a few notable contemporaries such as Jeff Vandermeer and Michael Chabon have been able to do. Post-urban New Jersey is instantly recognizable in this interlinked series of short vignettes... and Lev's living room is puddles of water and sun, and a bunch of those furry caterpillars are hauling themselves from surface to surface. Populated by a bumbling, murderous citizenry of corrupt cops, innocents, ravenous addicts, lovesick geniuses, and cynical adventurers, Ivyland operates in the shadow of a giant pharmaceutical corporation that thrives on people's weaknesses... and may have an even more sinister agenda. It's our world, only a bit more extreme, and lovingly, precisely depicted with the adept skills native to a master of dark humor. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christa Lewis.
