    The Anti-Book
    With nods to The Phantom Tollbooth and Coraline, this darkly funny fantasy is a classic-in-the-making-the story of a boy who wants the world to disappear…and what happens when it does. Mickey is angry all the time: at his divorced parents, at his sister, and at his two new stepmoms, both named Charlie. And so he can't resist the ad inside his pack of gum: "Do you ever wish everyone would go away? Buy The Anti-Book!" He orders the book, but when it arrives, it's blank-except for one line of instruction: To erase it, write it. He fills the pages with all the things and people he dislikes…and the next thing he knows, he's wandering an anti-world, one in which everything and everyone familiar is gone. Or are they? Full of humor and surprise, and slyly meaningful, this is a Wizard of Oz for today's generation-a fantastical quest for comfort and belonging that will resonate with many, many readers.

    Rimward Stars: Castle Federation Series, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 725min
    A helpless ally calls for aid. A ruthless enemy strikes without mercy. The fate of empires turns on even the smallest actions. When a minor trade partner sends the Castle Federation a desperate call for aid, they have few resources to spare from their all-consuming war against the Terran Commonwealth. Unwilling to be seen failing their allies but able to spare only a tiny force, Castle sends a hero to command the task group: Captain Kyle Roberts, the Stellar Fox. Beyond the Rimward frontier of the Federation and its allies, little is as it seems. The pirates are being armed by an outside force, and the politics of these worlds is made deadlier by their poverty. When the Coraline Imperium - the Federation's oft-difficult ally - sends forces as well, it risks a conflict that could undermine the Alliance protecting them both. There are deeper games afoot as local schemes play the great powers against each other. Captain Roberts is caught in the chaos as fire and blood explode across the region. There is only one certainty: these Rimward Stars must not fall. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric Michael Summerer.

    If you're looking for a great read, I highly recommend Stranded with Stu.... This very much reminded me of Stephen King at his best.

After a horrific bear encounter, Spencer stumbles upon Stu, a bald man who refers to the forest as his domain and claims it's inhabited by otherworldly creatures he calls "the crazies". Next thing he knows, Spencer is locked up in Stu's cabin. But is it imprisonment or salvation?Haunted by memories of his tumultuous upbringing, Spencer now has to find a way to escape from this strange man and "the crazies" and find his way back home...with only his imaginary friend Abigail to rely on. With references to Neil Gaiman's Coraline, Stephen King's Cujo, and The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, Michael Ende's The Neverending Story, Jack London's White Fang, among many other literary and pop-culture references, Stranded with Stu is a heart-pounding thriller and a coming-of-age tale you will never forget. ungekürzt.

    The Fall of the Readers: The Forbidden Library, Volume 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 471min
    In this thrilling conclusion to Alice's adventures in The Forbidden Library, she must lead her band of friends, magical beings, and creatures against the collected might of the Old Readers - perfect for fans of Story Thieves, Inkheart, Coraline, and Harry Potter. When Alice defeated her uncle Geryon and declared war on the totalitarian ways of the Old Readers, she knew she would have a hard fight ahead. What she didn't anticipate was the ruthlessness of the Old Reader - who can control magic and enter worlds through books. All the creatures she promised to liberate and protect are being threatened, and slowly all of Alice's defenses are being worn away. So when Ending (the giant cat-like creature who guards the magical labyrinth in Geryon's library) hints at a dangerous final solution, Alice jumps at the chance, no matter the cost to her life. She and her friends - a fire sprite, Ashes the cat, and the other apprentice Readers she met during her previous adventures - go on a quest to free the one creature possibly strong enough to overturn the Old Readers once and for all. But before it's all over, Alice will be betrayed, her true identity will be revealed, and she'll have to be willing to give up the person she loves the most. This is beautifully written, classic, bold historical fantasy - brave, bloody, action-packed, and adventurous - with a girl at the center. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cassandra Morris.

Since she was a baby, Aza has suffered from a mysterious lung disease that makes it ever harder for her to breathe, to speak - to live. So when Aza catches a glimpse of a ship in the sky, her family chalks it up to a cruel side effect of her medication. But Aza doesn't think this is a hallucination. She can hear someone on the ship calling her name. Only her best friend, Jason, listens. Jason, who's always been there. Jason, for whom she might have more-than-friendly feelings.

Magonia. Above the clouds, in a land of trading ships, Aza is not the weak and dying thing she was. In Magonia, she can breathe for the first time. Better, she has immense power - but as she navigates her new life, she discovers that war between Magonia and Earth is coming.

Charlotte's herbarium used to be one of the busiest stores in Cypress Creek. Now her loyal following is heading to Orville Falls for their herbal potions.

    The Lost Lullaby: Nightmares!, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 391min
    The third book in the hilariously scary Nightmares! series by New York Times best-selling authors Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller is here! You thought the nightmares were over? You better keep the lights on! Charlie Laird has a very bad feeling. There's a new girl at school, and Charlie and his friends have definitely seen her before. He's been hearing strange noises after dark, which is never a good sign. The nightmares are back, and they're weirder than ever. Not since he faced his fears has Charlie had so many bad dreams. Whenever he falls asleep, he finds himself in a Netherworld field, surrounded by a flock of creepy black sheep. They're not counting sheep. They refuse to jump. In fact, they don't do much at all. Even eerier, though, is that it's not Charlie's nightmare. Somehow he's trapped in someone else's bad dream. And he's pretty sure the twins Ick and Ink are responsible. Charlie and his friends thought they'd put the twins out of business, but it seems they didn't quite finish the job. Now the woolly nightmares are closing in, and Ink has shown up at Cypress Creek Elementary! Charlie's convinced that Ink is up to no good. And if he's right, it could be a very long time before anyone's dreams are sweet again.  Praise for the Nightmares! series: “Charlie Laird, who learns fear will eat you alive if you feed it, makes an impression, and...readers will want to accompany him again.” (The New York Times Book Review) “A touching comical saga...about facing things that go bump in the night.” (US Weekly) “Coraline meets Monsters, Inc. in this delightfully entertaining offering from actor [Jason] Segel and co-author [Kirsten] Miller.” (Publishers Weekly) ungekürzt.
