Season of the Witch: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 658min
“One of the best and most convincing novels written so far about the lifestyle of the Woodstock generation.” (Publishers Weekly) It’s the fall of 1969, and Gloria Random’s best friend John has been called up for the draft. To escape it, they decide to run away from their Midwest town and their mundane lives. Renaming themselves Witch and Roy, they head to New York City in search of Witch’s biological father. Landing in the East Village, they are pulled into a community of drug use, mystical rituals, and sexual experimentation as they try to hide deeper and deeper from the realities they left behind. James Leo Herlihy’s third novel captures the mood and grooves of late-60s New York at the height of the anti-war movement and the counterculture revolution.

Lies My Teacher Told Me: The True History of the War for Southern Independence , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 55min
You were lied to about the nature, character, and cause of the American Civil War, but that is just the start. The entire South - its people, culture, history, customs, both past and present - has been and continues to be lied about and demonized by the unholy trinity of the American establishment: academia, Hollywood, and the media. In the midst of the anti-South hysteria currently infecting the American psyche - the banning of flags, charges of hate and racism, the removal and attempted removal of Confederate monuments, the renaming of schools, vandalism of monuments and property displaying the Confederate Battle Flag, and even physical assaults, albeit rarely at present, on people who display the symbols of the South - Shotwell Publishing offers this unapologetic, unreconstructed, pro-South book with the hope that it will reach those who are left that are not afraid to question the sanity of this cultural purge and the veracity of its narrative concerning the South. ungekürzt.

History's Most Insane Rulers: Lunatics, Eccentrics, and Megalomaniacs From Emperor Caligula to Kim Jong Il , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 109min
Few mixtures are as toxic as absolute power and insanity. When nothing stands between a leader's delusion whims and seeing them carried them out, all sorts of bizarre outcomes are possible. Whether it is Ottoman Sultan Ibrahim I practicing archery on palace servants and sending out his advisers to find the fattest woman in the empire for his wife or Turkmenistan President Turkmenbashi renaming the days of the week after himself and constructing an 80-foot golden statue that revolves to face the sun, crazed leaders have plagued society for millenia. This audiobook will look at the lives of the ten most mentally unbalanced figures in history. Some suffered from genetic disorders that led to schizophrenia, such as French King Charles VI, who thought he was made of glass. Others believed themselves to be God's representatives on earth and wrote religious writings that they guaranteed to the reader would get them into heaven, even if they were barely literate. Whatever their background, these rulers show that dynastic politics made sure that a rightful heir always got on the throne - despite that heir's mental condition - and that power can destroy a mind worse than any mental illness. ungekürzt.

Your Ticket to Utopia: The U.U.S.A. The United and Utopian States of America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 383min
Your Ticket to Utopia is a chance to participate in the greatest social experiment of all time, renaming the USA to the UUSA, the United and Utopian States of America. More important than the naming will be form of government that we choose. In the Utopia TV Show on the Fox Channel, the early pioneers immediately adopted a real Democracy and voted directly on the issues of the day. Can we do the same thing in the UUSA? Join to find out and support the movement toward real democracy in America where the people regain control over our country and begin to redirect our fate back to "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness". We need every thinking American to download this app, give it all the attention in deserves, spread the word about the new version of America that is dedicated to becoming more like a Utopia rather than the state of dictatorship that we now endure. Now is the time for all good men and women to come to the aid of their country. At present we suffer a nation that is run by about 200 men in suits who also run the largest multi-national corporations. Even a foreign corporation such as Saudi Arabian Oil has more say over what happens in American than the average citizen or even the Congress whom we elect to office. Because as soon as they arrive, they begin their fundraising activities instead of paying attention to the problems at hand, debating them, and arriving at a solution that is free from the influence of the people who they just partied with at their fundraisers. In the Utopian States of America, every American would have one vote that they would expend online for National Ballot Measures and in that way, everyone would be represented equally, no more lobbyists, no more fundraising, not even any need for Congress or the President to be forced into an "Executive Order". ungekürzt.
