Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Objective , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 865min
Facing down mercenaries in Africa, Jason Bourne witnesses the death of an art dealer named Tracy Atherton. Her killing dredges up snatches of Bourne's impaired memory, in particular the murder of a young woman on Bali who entrusted him with a strangely engraved ring - an artifact of such powerful significance that people have killed to obtain it. Now he's determined to find the ring's owner and purpose. But Bourne never knows what terrible acts he'll discover he committed when he digs into the past. The trail will lead him through layers of conspiracy to a vicious Russian mercenary, Leonid Arkadin, who was also a graduate of the Central Intelligence training program Treadstone. A covert course designed to create ruthless assassins for C.I., it was shuttered by Congress for corruption. Yet before it was dismantled, it produced Bourne and Arkadin, giving them equal skills, equal force, and equal cunning. As Bourne's destiny circles closer to Arkadin's, it becomes clear that the eventual collision of these men is not of their own making. Someone else has been watching and manipulating them. Someone who wants to know, Who is the more deadly agent? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Sowers. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hach/000447/bk_hach_000447_sample.mp3.

The Boy Born Dead: A Story of Friendship, Courage, and Triumph , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min
Audie Award, Faith-Based Non-Fiction, 2016 In 1953, in Jonesboro, Arkansas, a baby boy was born - dead. The attending physician set his little body aside and tended to his mother for 18 minutes. Now, more than 60 years later, that boy leads an internationally known ministry that encourages hundreds of thousands every year. The Boy Born Dead tells his incredible story from the perspective of his best friend, David Wideman. As a teenager in the small town of Liberty, Missouri, in the late 1960s, David Ring grew up with the challenges that come with cerebral palsy, a result of his 18 minutes of newborn silence. Along with his physical limitations, Ring was orphaned and shuffled from home to home, finally landing in an abusive situation that made him feel unworthy of love and, eventually, unworthy of life. But God had a purpose for Ring's life and sent an agent to help him achieve it. Through the friendship of David Wideman, a boy he met in the halls of Liberty High School, Ring found strength he didn't know he had and went on to face his demons, marry the love of his life, and start an international speaking ministry. Full of hope, this moving story illustrates how friendship and love triumph over adversity. Anyone who faces tough times will treasure this story of hope and courage. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Dark Recollections: Adrian's Undead Diary, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 462min
For the first time, the Internet phenomenon is now in print! Beheading a zombie isn't easy in a world where you're more afraid of the living than the dead. Adrian Ring's simple life is thrown into chaos when the world is ripped apart by a plague of undead and legions of desperate survivors. Retreating to Auburn Lake Preparatory Academy, Adrian attempts to rescue friends and family on the way while dancing around his impending insanity over who and what he left behind, and evading maniac survivors. He saves his cat Otis, but shoots his mom. Pretty successful, all things considered. Dark Recollections is the first part of Adrian's own story of how he survived after "That Day".

The moment Kai Kelly inherits her estranged grandfather's estate in Bliss, Idaho, life becomes anything but blissful. The discovery of a beautiful but unusual ring in the attic leads to much more than she bargained for. Kai may not realize what she has in her possession, but the boys in Hell sure got the message. Lucifer and the six other princes of Hell, existed for several millennium believing that the Ring of Solomon - an object with the power to control demons - had been destroyed. The instant Kai slips the ring on her finger, the tremor of its power ripples through the underworld. Aware that the ring's existence could mean the destruction of all demons, Lucifer sends his six princes to earth in search of the ring and it's bearer. There's one catch, a demon can't take the ring from its owner, it has to be given willingly or they have to be dead. Asmodeus, the Demon of Lust, is happy to have another opportunity to visit the mortal world and dally with a human female or 12. However, when he arrives on Earth, he realizes Lucifer made all the demons mortal in an effort to keep them motivated, focused on their mission and immune from the powers of the ring. When Asmodeus meets Kai along a deserted section of highway in Magic Valley, it's more than the ring she wears that catches his eye.

When the other members of the brotherhood realize Asmodeus has found the ring, they descend on Bliss, determined to get the ring from Kai at any cost.

Breakfast of Superheroes (eBook, ePUB)
Fifth grader Kyle Alexander and his best friend, Carlos, are delighted when Kyle's mom brings home a hard-to-find box of Scrunchy Corn Flakes with the Breakfast of Superheroes promotion. These boxes contain a toy copy of the magic ring that once belonged to the brother of the city's great superhero, Captain Nightmare. But the ring in the box doesn't behave like a toy. It eludes capture, makes loud noises, and grabs onto Kyle's finger and won't let go. Carlos, won't believe that the ring won't come off and is angry that Kyle kept the ring after promising that he, Carlos, could have it. Kyle's suspicions about this ring grow when he makes an amazing escape from the fangs of the nasty neighborhood dog. Then, when his nap in the backyard ends up with him floating above his house, he and Carlos realize the truth: somehow, he got the real magic ring that gives the wearer super powers and makes him Captain Nightmare's partner. Captain Nightmare had been keeping this powerful ring locked up, waiting to find someone worthy of its powers, but loaned it to the Cereal Company for one day so they could create toy copies of the ring. Nightmare is livid, thinking that Scrunchy lost the ring, but a more likely explanation is that the ring grew tired of being locked up and ran away. Magic rings sometimes do. Though Kyle and Carlos have both long dreamed of being superheroes, Kyle is not nearly as adventuresome as his friend. He is clumsy and is terrified of a great many things, including sleeping in the top bunk bed. He feels utterly unworthy of the ring's powers. Though Carlos is quite jealous that Kyle has the ring, he cheers for Kyle and prods him into action. He helps him to pick out what turns out to be a comical costume and tries to pick a name for Kyle's superhero identity. When Kyle tries to use his powers by flying out his bedroom window, he has a painful meeting with the bushes below his window. After he figures out how to activate the power of the ring, the ring takes him on a wild ride, with Kyle screaming in terror. After a couple of flights, he starts to get the hang of the ring, but is still clumsy with it. When Carlos and the Alexander family hear a report of a passenger plane that is in trouble, Carlos manipulates Kyle's parents into punishing Kyle to get him away from the dinner table. Kyle reluctantly flies to the rescue, only to be overwhelmed by the size of the job at hand. He leaves without doing anything to help save the plane or even speaking to Captain Nightmare. Later, Kyle returns to the sky and finds a restaurant being robbed. He flies to apprehend the thief, only to freeze when he sees how big and mean the thief looks. Kyle is embarrassed and ashamed and finds himself lying to his best friend to cover up his fears. Determined to be worthy of the ring, he undertakes another adventure and encounters the city's most dangerous crook, Rocky the Rat. Rocky is threatening a woman from whom he has been extorting money. Kyle lands and hides behind a tree to observe, and is so terrified that he can hardly stand. He considers flying away, hoping that the police or another superhero will show up to handle the job, but realizes he must either face Rocky or let the woman die. When he summons the courage to confront Rocky and his gang, they mock him and hurl insults at him. After Kyle accidentally dents the gang's car, a henchman named Eddie tries to smash him with a hammer. Kyle tries to fly away, but the ring won't let him.- Shop: buecher
