End One: S1L0: @TheEndsOfTheWorld, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 121min
There are no secrets. Everything leaks. And in the end, there’s no place you can hide from what you’ve done. The General wanted to end civilization and rebuild it in his image. His plan required recruiting the best and brightest and promising them a place in the new world. The smartest of them were too smart for that. In a secret silo in a hidden location far from the General’s devastation, they thought they’d be safe. They were wrong. From the author: It's a pretty grim story, about terrible people doing horrible things to each other, set near Hugh Howey's Silo world. Yes, there are secrets revealed. No, there is no redemption here, only Armageddon. And then some more Armageddon. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Boris D. Schleinkofer.

Swann: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 730min
Winner of the Arthur Ellis Award for Best Crime Novel and shortlisted for the Governor General’s Literary Award: Carol Shields’s award-winning fourth novel is a literary detective story exploring the surprising afterlife of a murdered poet. Who is Mary Swann? In this novel of a writer’s revenge, an uneducated farmer’s wife delivers a paper bag filled with scraps of her poems to the publisher of a small press. Hours later, she’s dead, murdered by her husband. Fifteen years on, her book of 125 poems - Mary Swann’s sole claim to fame - is discovered by an American academic. And a literary odyssey begins. Four narrators - Sarah Maloney, a feminist writer; Frederic Cruzzi, an editor; Morton Jimroy, a biographer; and Rose Hindmarch, Mary’s only friend - all have a stake in the deceased poet’s work. Their chorus of voices opens a fascinating window on what constitutes genius. As the four descend into a quagmire of ego, jealousy, and backstabbing, Mary Swann comes back to life - in the minds and hearts of those who love and hate her most. Full of mischief, Swann is a novel about life, death, and the ideas that live on after us. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Angele Masters.

The Indian Army: Reminiscences, Reforms & Romance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 540min
In the essays that comprise The Indian Army: Reminiscences, Reforms & Romance, Lieutenant General H. S. Panag examines burning questions surrounding the Indian armed forces: their exploitation by neo- nationalists; an intrusive media’s projection of the army as the sole flag bearer of patriotism; the obsession with Pakistan as an impending threat to national security; the intense militarisation of Kashmir post the abrogation of Article 370; and equal opportunities for women in combat, among other issues. Divided into six sections - Human Rights, Reforms, Leadership, Reminiscences, Conflict and Unforgettable Heroes - the book compels the listener to think deeper and with greater nuance about a much-discussed and much-maligned institution. The Indian Army is also a glimpse into the general’s own life and reveals hitherto unknown aspects of his long career in the army. A writer who straddles the serious and the idyllic with equal ease, he unequivocally condemns the tying of a citizen to the bonnet of an army jeep in Kashmir in 2017 in one piece, and in another tells the intensely passionate, albeit tragic love story of a soldier and a Kashmiri girl. As candid as it is incisive, The Indian Army is a must-listen for every Indian who has stopped to think about the powerful institution that the army is. ungekürzt. Language: English.
