    Lonelyhearts: The Screwball World of Nathanael West and Eileen McKenney , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 801min
    Nathaniel West: novelist, screenwriter, playwright, devoted outdoorsman, was one of the most gifted and original writers of his generation, a comic artist whose insight into the brutalities of modern life proved prophetic. He is famous for two masterpieces: Miss Lonelyhearts (1933) and The Day of the Locust (1939). Seventy years later, The Day of the Locust remains the most penetrating novel ever written about Hollywood. Eileen McKenney: accidental muse, literary heroine was the inspiration for her sister Ruth's humorous stories, My Sister Eileen, which led to stage, film, and television adaptations, including Leonard Bernstein s 1953 musical Wonderful Town. She grew up in Cleveland and moved to Manhattan at 21 in search of romance and adventure. She and her sister lived in a basement apartment in the Village with a street-level window into which men frequently peered. Husband and wife were intimate with F. Scott Fitzgerald, Dorothy Parker, Katharine White, S.J. Perelman, Bennett Cerf, and many of the literary, theatrical, and movie notables of their era.With Lonelyhearts, biographer Marion Meade, whose Bobbed Hair and Bathtub Gin earned accolades from the Washington Post Book World ("Wonderful") to the San Francisco Chronicle ("Like looking at a photo album while listening to a witty insider reminisce about the images"), restores West and McKenney to their rightful places in the rich cultural tapestry of interwar America. ungekürzt.

    Absolute Magick: Occult Secrets of the Masters, Hörbuch, Digital, 59min
    The ability to manipulate matter to one's own will has long been a quest of many searchers in history. From alchemy to witchcraft and the great wizards of myth, we have been led to believe that this notion is fanciful at best. But what about those who claimed to know the truth about the occult - Eliphas Levi, Aleister Crowley, and Madame Blavatsky, to name a few? A hidden world that resides next to our own but is inaccessible to most. Sensationalized by alleged sacrifices, orgies, and even Satanic rituals, in truth these were the intrepid, those who dared to commit themselves to the supernatural, the real paranormal world. It was into this dark and fascinating world that the masters of magic peered and brought back with them knowledge unattainable by other means. In this program we will stare into the mirror of magic and discover the ancient wisdom that has come down to us through myth, legend, and secret societies. Hidden beneath symbols and in fables and cloaked in cipher, we will unlock these mysteries with the use of modern science and the darkness of our own unconscious. We will explore the mystical world, the magical world, the strange and wonderful, and place them before our own modern mirror of today. Real, absolute magic will unlock for us the very secrets of the universe that modern scientists spend billions trying to discover. There is no battle between science and magic. There is only absolute magic. Language: English. Narrator: Philip Gardiner. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/rt/real/000416/rt_real_000416_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Tutankhamun's Trumpet (eBook, ePUB)
    On 26 November 1922 Howard Carter first peered into the newly opened tomb of an ancient Egyptian boy-king. When asked if he could see anything, he replied: 'Yes, yes, wonderful things.' In Tutankhamun's Trumpet, acclaimed Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson takes a unique approach to a well-worn subject. Instead of concentrating on the oft-told story of the discovery, or speculating on the (brief) life and (fractious) times of the boy-king, Wilkinson takes the objects buried with the king as the source material for a wide-ranging, detailed portrait of ancient Egypt - its geography, history, culture and legacy. One hundred artefacts from the tomb, arranged in ten thematic groups, are allowed to speak again - not only for themselves, but as witnesses of the civilization that created them. Never before have the treasures of Tutankhamun been analyzed and presented for what they can tell us about ancient Egyptian culture, its extraordinary development, its remarkable flourishing, and its lasting impact. Like Tutankhamun himself, the music which surrounded him has vanished. All that remains are echoes of the past, survivors of an age long gone, the stuff of interpretation and reinterpretation. But through the objects buried with him, his world, and the civilization of ancient Egypt of which he remains the ultimate symbol, can be brought back to life. Filled with surprising insights, unusual details, vivid descriptions and, above all, remarkable objects, Tutankhamun's Trumpet will appeal to all lovers of history, archaeology, art and culture, as well as all those fascinated by the Egypt of the pharaohs.

    Raffy Calfy's Rescue: Animal Protector Series, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 20min
    The calf plopped to the ground, looking as grumpy as she felt. She had energy to spare, but nowhere to run and no one to play with. She was trapped! Her mom let out an amused snort, and then licked her little snout clean.Suddenly, there was a commotion in the barn, and a loud braying sent her scurrying under her mother, cowering and shaking. “What’s that noise?”The sound grew louder. Raffy peered through a gap in the wooden fence and saw a huge brown beast with shiny fur and black trimmings on his feet and face. “It’s a horse, honey,” replied Momma. Here at the Lazy M Rodeo Company, stories were passed from pen to pen about how the horses helped the humans rope baby cows for “fun and entertainment”; but it sure wasn’t fun for the calves or their mothers who lowed in frustration as their babies were pulled from their sides.  Over the next few days, Raffy Calfy, Momma, and Serge the horse developed a friendship, even making up silly jokes and playing tricks on one another. Finally, the time came for Serge to tell Rhonda and Raffy all about the rodeo and the dangers it held for cows and calves. Was all hope lost? Would Raffy and Momma ever make it to the meadow? Find out in Raffy Calfy’s Rescue, the third book in the Animal Protector Series. It is perfect for ages eight and up and includes a vocablary builder and lesson starter questions, too. ungekürzt.

    Invincible: The Trident Code, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 363min, (USK 18)
    I'll be honest with you - I'm no hero. Sure, the media tries to brand every Navy SEAL as some kind of Batman dressed in cammies. There's even a line in one of our cadences: "Superman is the man of steel, he ain't no match for Navy SEAL." You've seen the movies - we're indestructible, invincible. But that night, the one you read about in the papers…all I really wanted to do was get laid. One harmless f*** with a Curaçao whore, no strings attached. I picked her out of a lineup - wild, dark hair, long legs and a crooked smile. After she sucked me off, I relaxed back onto the creaky, cum-stained cot, thankful for the blissful moments she gave me when I actually forgot for a second the faces of my buddies who died because I made the wrong call, the tears of the children I couldn't save, and the eyes of the enemies I slaughtered during their last seconds of life. But before I left, her hazel eyes peered into my soul. She whispered in a distinct Californian accent, "My name is Annie Hamilton. I'm an American citizen. I was kidnapped from a cruise ship five years ago. You're my last hope. Please save me." One desperate plea. This wasn't a Hollywood blockbuster or a New York Times best-selling thriller. I knew that this time there was no room for excuses, no margin for errors. I had one chance to put the cape on and be her hero. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Grant George, Alexa Kahn.

    Three Stones Make a Wall: The Story of Archaeology , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 764min
    From the best-selling author of 1177 B.C., a comprehensive history of archaeology - from its amateur beginnings to the cutting-edge science it is today. In 1922, Howard Carter peered into Tutankhamun's tomb for the first time, the only light coming from the candle in his outstretched hand. Urged to tell what he was seeing through the small opening he had cut in the door to the tomb, the Egyptologist famously replied, "I see wonderful things". Carter's fabulous discovery is just one of the many spellbinding stories told in Three Stones Make a Wall. Written by Eric Cline, an archaeologist with more than 30 seasons of excavation experience, Three Stones Make a Wall traces the history of archaeology from an amateur pursuit to the cutting-edge science it is today by taking the listener on a tour of major archaeological sites and discoveries, from Pompeii to Petra, Troy to the Terracotta Warriors, and Mycenae to Megiddo and Masada. Cline brings to life the personalities behind these digs, including Heinrich Schliemann, the former businessman who excavated Troy, and Mary Leakey, whose discoveries advanced our understanding of human origins. The discovery of the peoples and civilizations of the past is presented in vivid detail, from the Hittites and Minoans to the Inca, Aztec, and Moche. Along the way, the book addresses the questions archaeologists are asked most often: How do you know where to dig? How are excavations actually done? How do you know how old something is? Who gets to keep what is found? Taking listeners from the pioneering digs of the 18th century to the exciting new discoveries being made today, Three Stones Make a Wall is a lively and essential introduction to the story of archaeology. ungekürzt.

    The BDSM Halloween Party: Public Gangbang at a Sex Party , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 26min, (USK 18)
    It was a holiday with an excuse to dress like a slut, and I did exactly that, with a little extra glitter. I had always loved getting out of my comfort zone a little, but this Halloween party was more than just a little out of my comfort zone. It was a BDSM heaven, and I was the main attraction. It would be one memorable Halloween. Warning: If you're not 18 or older, please don't download this audiobook. In addition, there is content such as first time gangbang sex, group sex, oral sex, public sex, BDSM sex, sex at a party, and more. If you find that offensive, don't listen to this story. Here is a preview: Once we were all done, we decided to go to the sex room, just out of curiosity. I decided to suspend my judgment of people who were having sex, especially since the bouncer would probably have us thrown out if we said anything. Besides, I doubted anyone here would actually be here if they cared that people were in the next room screaming. It wasn't like we could hear it anyways. I wondered how anyone could go in there and actually comfortably have sex around dozens of people. Then again, I was about to find out. All four of us opened the door and peered inside reluctantly. At first, we saw nothing because the room itself was off to the side of a small hallway. Probably to discourage onlookers who didn't want to join, I thought. I noticed a sign at the end of the hallway that banned cameras in this particular room. If anyone was caught with one, it'd probably be confiscated. That was understandable, given that anything that happened in this room could probably ruin someone's life if it was released. We slipped in and closed the door behind us quietly. ungekürzt.
