    Flightless Bird: The Caged Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 287min
    They're powerless without her - she's powerless to resist. The list of reasons why Lexus Wren is the last girl any guy would be interested in is mercilessly long: Her dad's in prison for murder, her mom drowns her sorrows every night at Dave's Dive, and Lexus is just trying to survive the cruelties of high school as a painfully shy bookworm with a bad wardrobe, and a collection of nervous habits. Never, in a million years, did Lexus expect to draw the eyes of two hunky transfer students, Phoenix and Griffin Easton. The troubled brothers are haunted by their own demons, and don't seem bothered by Lexus' tarnished reputation. They're too busy trying to figure out why touching her makes them feel like electricity is frying their insides, and why they're compelled to obey her every command. You'd think having two hot guys vying for her would improve her reputation, but the bullying at home and school only gets worse. When Lexus' problems reach a critical tipping point, the boys are drawn to protect her, and the truth about their powerful connection is revealed in an explosive confrontation that will astound them all. If you like paranormal romance stories with supernatural magic, a love triangle hotter than Twilight, and John Green style teenage angst, you'll be captivated by Flightless Bird! ungekürzt.

    The Dodo: The History and Legacy of the Extinct Flightless Bird , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 85min
    “The dodo never had a chance. He seems to have been invented for the sole purpose of becoming extinct and that was all he was good for.” (Willy Cuppy, 19th century American humorist and literary critic)At one point or another, just about everyone has heard of the dodo bird, which is almost universally described as a cuddly, whimsical creature renowned for its alleged stupidity. This prehistoric avian had been known for hundreds of years, before it was made popular around the world in Lewis Carroll’s 1865 classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The character, the Dodo, satirized the author himself. According to pop culture lore, Carroll, whose real name was Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, regarded the dodo as his spirit animal due to his alleged stutter, which led to him often presenting himself as “Do-do-Dodgson". Carroll was also a frequent patron of the Oxford Museum of Natural History, which served as an inspiration for his memorable anthropomorphic characters. The 1951 Disney animation Alice in Wonderland breathed new life into Carroll's Dodo, portrayed as a plump, peach-faced creature with a bulbous pink beak, clad in a purple waistcoat, a powdered wig, and a pipe dangling out of his beak. Like its real-life counterparts, the Dodo was depicted as a flightless bird who crossed paths with Alice, bobbing along inside of a bottle upon the open sea. Owing to its inability to fly, the Dodo uses an upside-down toucan as his boat, and the Dodo is being maneuvered by a green hawk furiously flapping its wings, serving as the boat's propeller. The dimwitted, carefree dodo also made various appearances in film and TV shows over the years, such as Yoyo Dodo in the 1938 black-and-white animation Porky in Wackyland, the short-lived stop-motion animated series Rocky and the Dodos, and the 2002 animated film Ice Age, which depicts the dodos as a silly, clumsy troop of birds who fail to guard three small wate ungekürzt.

    The Fox Busters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 148min
    Flightless, helpless and often, frankly, more than a little silly, chickens are no match for the cunning, merciless foxes stalking their coop. Or are they? Thanks to a careless farmer and generations of determined foxes, the chickens on Foxearth Farm have evolved into quick-witted, long-legged, high flying fox dodgers. Then, just a week after a vicious fox ambush in the water trough, three sisters are hatched. And Ransome, Sims and Jefferies are no ordinary chicks: they grow up determined to fight back. They are the legendary Fox Busters. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nigel Lambert. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/bbcw/003922/bk_bbcw_003922_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    New Zealand is a country of stunning and diverse natural beauty: jagged mountains, rolling pasture land, steep fjords, pristine trout-filled lakes, raging rivers, scenic beaches, and active volcanic zones. These islands are one of Earth's most peculiar bioregions, inhabited by flightless birds seen nowhere else such as a nocturnal, burrowing parrot called the kakapo, and kiwi. Kiwi are not only one of the national symbols - the others being the silver fern leaf and koru - but also the name New Zealanders usually call themselves. Enjoy this travel guide as you adventure on your journey through New Zealand! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: JD Kelly.

    Cast in Flight: Chronicles of Elantra, Book 12 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 991min
    New York Times best-selling author Michelle Sagara returns to the city of Elantra with a thrilling tale rife with ancient magic, assassination attempts, and political intrigue. Private Kaylin Neya already has Dragons and Barrani as roommates. Adding one injured, flightless Aerian to her household should be trivial. Sure, the Aerian is Sergeant Moran dar Carafel, but Kaylin's own sergeant is a Leontine, the definition of growly and fanged. She can handle one Aerian. But when a walk to the Halls of Law becomes a street-shattering magical assassination attempt on the sergeant, Kaylin discovers that it's not the guest who's going to be the problem: it's all of the people who suddenly want Moran dar Carafel dead. And though Moran refuses to tell her why she's being targeted, Kaylin is determined to discover her secret and protect her at all costs - even if keeping Moran safe means dealing with Aerian politics, angry dragons, and something far more sinister. ungekürzt.

    Fae Hunter: The Soulstealer Trilogy, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 518min
    Valora Delos is a hunter, charged with tracking the treacherous Soulstealers and bringing them to justice. Unlike the other fae of her kind, Valora was born with stunted wings that render her flightless, driving her to prove herself in the eyes of King Aric - whom she has been infatuated with since she first set eyes on him as a young prince. She descends to Earth and finds herself trapped in suburban Seattle after the portal to her world closes. With the help of a sexy half-fae named Dooley, Valora must find her way back in order to save Dell'Aria. Dooley uses his own brand of magic to help Valora discover memories buried deep within her, which only produces more questions than answers - questions about her growing attraction to Dooley and her devotion to her King. Uncovering who the Soulstealers are and who is behind the destruction of Dell'Aria, brings Valora a truth she may not be ready to handle. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: S. A. Archer.
