Reborn: Apprentice: A LitRPG Adventure: Reclamation, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 250min

Ed White was a college freshman and had moved into the dorm room of his new college with the help of his parents when he was mowed down by a car on his way back from lunch. Being an avid RPG player, Ed excelled at logic and reason, and when he enters the afterworld, he is met with a figure who offers him an appealing proposition: to reincarnate as Edward MacAra, a black magic user. The only stipulation: Edward must save the universe from being taken over by the Demon Lord, Abraxas. Abraxas is thought to be dormant, but he is slowly taking over the surrounding villages, and Gilmore is next. Ed risks losing his own soul in the process if he is not able to prevent Abraxas from claiming the universe. After deliberation, Ed reincarnates to the village of Gilmore as Edward MacAra, an eight-year-old boy. During the attribute assessment at school, Edward and his family find that he does not have a high enough level in strength to become a blacksmith and to follow in his father's footsteps, but rather possesses a uniquely high level of intelligence. Edward talks his parents into letting him learn magic and to become an apprentice. His parents seek out an archmage named Hamon, who accepts him as his apprentice. Hamon brings Edward to his school, the Draererth Academy of Spells and Wizardry. There, Edward learns magic and finds his innate attribute threatens the other students. Meanwhile, Abraxas attacks Gilmore. Edward is the first to find Abraxas as he storms the Draererth Academy of Spells and Wizards, but no one believes that Abraxas had arrived. Find out if Edward can save the students and the village of Gilmore in Reborn: Apprentice. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rafe Beckley.

Trading Bases: A Story About Wall Street, Gambling, and Baseball (Not Necessarily in That Order) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 576min

An ex-Wall Street trader improved on Moneyball’s famed sabermetrics to place bets that would beat the Vegas odds on Major League Baseball games - with a 41 percent return in his first year. Trading Bases explains how he did it. After the fall of Lehman Brothers, Joe Peta was out of a job. He found a new one but lost that, too, when an ambulance mowed him down. In search of a way to cheer himself up while he recuperated in a wheelchair, Peta started watching baseball again, as he had growing up. That’s when inspiration hit: Why not apply his outstanding risk-analysis skills to improve on sabermetrics, the method made famous by Moneyball - and beat the only market in town, the Vegas betting line? Why not treat MLB like the S&P 500? In Trading Bases, Peta shows how to subtract luck - in particular "cluster luck", as he puts it - from a team’s statistics to best predict how it will perform in the next game and over the whole season. His baseball "hedge fund" returned an astounding 41 percent in 2011 - and has never been down more than 5 percent. Peta takes listeners to the ballpark in San Francisco, trading floors and baseball bars in New York, and sports books in Vegas, all while tracing the progress of his wagers. Often humorous, occasionally touching, and with a wink toward the sheer implausibility of the whole project, Trading Bases is all about the love of critical reasoning, trading cultures, risk management, and baseball. And not necessarily in that order.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt. Language: English.

17 Ways to Please Your Spouse or Partner: For Men with Schizoid Personality Disorder, ADHD, OCPD or Asperger's Syndrome , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 20min

Many people with schizoid personality disorder or Asperger's syndrome want to have relationships with other people. They might work very hard to capture the attention of other people whom they like. However, many people with schizoid personality disorder or Asperger's syndrome struggle to maintain relationships. Some statistics on the Internet claim that the divorce rate for those with schizoid personality disorder, ADHD, or Asperger's syndrome is over 80 to 90 percent! Schizoid personality disorder, ADHD, and Asperger's syndrome cause a lot of different deficits in the communication and socialization of a person with the disorders in comparison to a neurotypical (non-autism spectrum) brain. These disorders also can cause a lot of memory retention problems, cognitive delays, planning issues, rigidity, and aggression. People who grow up with any of these disorders often may feel alienated for most of their lives. People with schizoid personality disorder, ADHD, or Asperger's syndrome may set their lives up the way that they like them. They like things to be just so. They might like their stuff to be in the same place all of the time for ease of finding it later. They might need rooms to be very clean or to be organized in a symmetrical way. They might need the food in the pantry, cupboards, and refrigerator lined up alphabetically or in color-coded rows. They might need the lawn to be mowed in certain patterns. People with these disorders also may have sensory processing disorder. They may be sensitive to lights, sounds, noise, touch, smells, and tastes. They might get especially overwhelmed when they are out in public areas. They might become agoraphobic or quite isolated due to their tendency to become overloaded in the environment. Or they develop a strong dislike of other people. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrel Sheree. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/053831/bk_acx0_053831_sample.mp3.

Kristen's life gets more complicated as she deals with losing the only man she's really ever loved....her father, only to find out that almost everything she has ever known was a lie. Her only ally as she's running to save her life from someone trying to kill her is her father's neighbor, an ex-police officer and writer, who knows just how to get under Kristen's skin. Circumstances push the two together and they learn that they are more compatible than they first thought. This book is a novella, or about 27,000 words, and is filled with love, passion, intrigue and mystery.Sample Preview:"Although it was a beautiful autumn day, it felt more like spring as Kristen Casey walked down the sidewalk. The only real difference was that the trees had shed their normal shades of green for more bold and brilliant ambers, oranges and reds.Kristen passed an elderly couple who gave her a sympathetic smile, which she politely returned. It was odd that a place so beautifully landscaped couldn't be more appreciated by its visitors.The lawn had all been freshly mowed and the scent of fresh-cut grass was in the air. Kristen found herself transported briefly back in time to when she was in elementary school. She would walk from her father's house everyday to school. For a short-cut, she would cut through an apartment complex where at least twice a week, they were cutting their grass. The smell, to her, meant that spring had arrived. Towards the end of the school year, she would always be so restless because all she wanted to do was be outside, where she could enjoy all that nature offered her. She'd give anything to be that naive, playfully restless girl once more. But, she wasn't a little girl anymore. She was twenty-eight, and had learned the hard way that life wasn't just full of sunshine and rainbows. And nothing demonstrated that better than where she was right now. Even though she was surrounded by sunshine, a bright blue sky, freshly ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Amanda Friday.
