In the Shadow of the Furies: A Novel of the Second Punic War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 697min
In the grandeur and brutality of ancient Rome, a man is only as great as his daring. Scipio lives the charmed life of a Roman playboy, but his indolence masks the pain of a past he refuses to face, and the bitter rejection of his estranged father, the consul Cornelius. Women and wine quench Scipio’s thirst for life, until the day he hungers for something more. Driven by staunch principles and fiery debate, Aemelia is unlike any woman Scipio’s desired and he longs to make her his wife. But Aemelia and her father know that he is a lover, not a husband. Beyond the grand halls and opulent gardens of Rome, war with Carthage is brewing. When Scipio is invited to join his father on the battlefields of Hispania, it is his chance to find glory and finally silence the shame and guilt that haunts him. Waiting for them is the brilliant and deadly general Hannibal, and the hard realities of war. At home, Aemelia watches as the city she loves threatens to slip backwards into prejudice, misogyny, and corruption. In an age of glorious victory, molten desires, and brutal consequences, Scipio and Aemelia walk the fine edge of disaster, while caught in the grip of a conflict that will shape the world forever. ungekürzt.

Pierre et Jean , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 421min
A vague jealousy, one of those dormant jealousies which grow up between brothers or sisters and slowly ripen till they burst, on the occasion of a marriage perhaps, or of some good fortune happening to one of them, kept them on the alert in a sort of brotherly and non-aggressive animosity. They were fond of each other, it is true, but they watched each other. Pierre, five years old when Jean was born, had looked with the eyes of a little petted animal at that other little animal which had suddenly come to lie in his father's and mother's arms and to be loved and fondled by them. Jean, from his birth, had always been a pattern of sweetness, gentleness, and good temper, and Pierre had by degrees begun to chafe at ever-lastingly hearing the praises of this great lad, whose sweetness in his eyes was indolence, whose gentleness was stupidity, and whose kindliness was blindness. His parents, whose dream for their sons was some respectable and undistinguished calling, blamed him for so often changing his mind, for his fits of enthusiasm, his abortive beginnings, and all his ineffectual impulses towards generous ideas and the liberal professions. Since he had grown to manhood they no longer said in so many words: "Look at Jean and follow his example," but every time he heard them say "Jean did this - Jean does that," he understood their meaning and the hint the words conveyed. ungekürzt.

Omniarchy: A Collection of Essays Concerning American Public Policy Issues , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1143min
Unlike every other nation in the history of the world, America was not founded simply upon the bases of communal physical considerations such as geography, tribe, caste, race, or religion. Rather, it was founded upon the shared, evolving, and occasionally conflicting ideals of liberty and equality of opportunity and with the hope that the fulfillment of these ideals would enable its citizens to realize significant individual and collective achievements.This is the American dream, and as pervasively as possible, the United States government should endeavor to propagate those ideals by providing every human being - regardless of race, gender, lineage, religion, or nationality - with an equal opportunity to realize their dreams, however they might choose to define them.How we choose to do so, our means and our methods, are fit topics for debate; that we do so is requisite. Our secular and democratic mores are ascendant throughout the world, but many challenges remain, both at home and abroad. Our nation cannot fall into the ancient imperial trap of safeguarding the results of achievement rather than preserving our potential for it - of dividing the people of the world into those who have and those who want and of assessing the stagnation of stability as superior to the productivity of change. These challenges are mortal threats to our national legacy.The purpose of government is to permit its constituents to enjoy their lives, liberties, and opportunities, free from the twin tyrannies of anarchy and oppression. A government created by of and for the people and that defends the inviolability of human and civil rights is both our collective birthright and a noble trust. Having been created and defended by the sacrifices of the patriotic, today, this legacy is jeopardized by the indolence of the affluent and the sanctimony of the smug. The quest to honor our heritage by embracing its values and not its accomplishments must be perpetual.Altho ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Chuck Hanrahan.
