    The Keeper's Flame: A Pandoran Novel, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 660min
    It's been five months since Daria Regius arrived at the castle, and her grandfather, the king, has stripped her of all freedoms, building even more barriers around her lonely life. But darkness moves. Rumors abound about a dark rider, sending ancient and unspeakable horrors to the territories, and the citizens of Gaia are filled with fear. And fear blurs the lines of loyalty and trust, honor and allegiance, and cultivates dissonance throughout the kingdom. The people are anxious for this year's games, because this year, according to prophecy, selecting a champion means a true king can be chosen, and only once that true king is chosen can the people have any hopes of defeating the evil amassing around them. Propelled by fear for those she loves, unexpected friendships, and harrowing betrayal, Daria must gain the courage to escape the barriers set around her life and confront the evil that threatens to destroy Gaia - before it finds her and takes her life first. Packed with action, plot twists and unwieldy magic, the tension rises in this YA fantasy sequel from author Barbara Kloss. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Vanessa Moyen.

    Shadow Dreams , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 284min
    Leo has hidden a secret for 19 years. Those who know him see a handsome man who perfectly fits the alpha-male stereotype. His strength and muscular body intimidate men and make women swoon. His friends assume he's a complete stud - a belief Leo cultivates as much as possible. The Leo people think they know is an illusion. Leo is gay, a fact he's afraid to embrace. Society, his parents, and his church all agree that to be a man who loves men is to be an abomination before the Lord. For years, Leo has accepted this as fact. He's spent hours trying to pray the gay away, terrified someone will out him for who he truly is. When he allows himself homoerotic fantasies, Leo finds momentary release replaced almost immediately by self-loathing. He lives his life in the shadows. Then he meets Dave. Unlike Leo, Dave fully embraces his sexual identity. He's playful, handsome, and alluringly confident. Leo can't help but be intrigued and turned on by such open sexuality. With Dave, he could find happiness - but having lived for so long in the shadows, will Leo be able to step into the light? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: J. Jaspers.

    Extreme Toyota Radical Contradictions That Drive Success at the World's Best Manufacturer: Radical Contradictions That Drive Success at the World's Best Manufacturer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 493min
    To an outsider, Toyota is hard to understand. The company moves forward gradually while also advancing in big leaps. It is frugal with its resources while spending extravagantly on people and projects. It is both efficient and redundant; it cultivates an environment of stability and paranoia; it is hierarchical and bureaucratic, but encourages dissent; it demands that communication be simplified while building complex communication networks. These contradictions are rampant at Toyota because its culture and managers intentionally embrace contradiction, opposites, and paradox. Granted unprecedented access to the inner workings of Toyota, the authors spent six years researching the company and performing more than 220 interviews with Toyota employees, distributors, and car dealers in order to determine what makes Toyota one of the world's best companies. Extreme Toyota offers an inside look at the radical contradictions within the company, created by its own management, and how these help Toyota outperform its competition. By putting a premium on creativity and paradoxical thinking as a corporate resource, Toyota has become the best car manufacturer and one of the most successful companies on earth. This audiobook takes a fascinating inside look at what makes Toyota tick. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Pratt.
