A River Enchanted
"With lush world building and lyrical prose, A River Enchanted feels like the echo of a folktale from a world right next to our own." -Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author of For the WolfHouse of Earth and Blood meets The Witch's Heart in Rebecca Ross's brilliant first adult fantasy, set on the magical isle of Cadence where two childhood enemies must team up to discover why girls are going missing from their clan.Jack Tamerlaine hasn't stepped foot on Cadence in ten long years, content to study music at the mainland university. But when young girls start disappearing from the isle, Jack is summoned home to help find them. Enchantments run deep on Cadence: gossip is carried by the wind, plaid shawls can be as strong as armor, and the smallest cut of a knife can instill fathomless fear. The capricious spirits that rule the isle by fire, water, earth, and wind find mirth in the lives of the humans who call the land home. Adaira, heiress of the east and Jack's childhood enemy, knows the spirits only answer to a bard's music, and she hopes Jack can draw them forth by song, enticing them to return the missing girls.As Jack and Adaira reluctantly work together, they find they make better allies than rivals as their partnership turns into something more. But with each passing song, it becomes apparent the trouble with the spirits is far more sinister than they first expected, and an older, darker secret about Cadence lurks beneath the surface, threatening to undo them all.With unforgettable characters, a fast-paced plot, and compelling world building, A River Enchanted is a stirring story of duty, love, and the power of true partnership, and marks Rebecca Ross's brilliant entry on the adult fantasy stage.- Shop: buecher

The Red Path: Indian Brigades in the Civil War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 963min
When hostilities in the Civil War come to Indian Territory it is no surprise that already Indian agents, all southern and "secesh" to a man, had early on recruited many Indian leaders and their followers for the Confederate States of America. Southern Indian Brigades were quickly established, and one in particular under Col. Stand Watie, whose participation is key to The Red Path. A second Chief, President of the Cherokee Nation, John Ross aka Keeowskowee, pleaded for a Gray Path - neutrality and a White Path - peace. His neutraity policy was circulated to all the Five Civilized Tribes in Indian Territory - Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Seminole. A third Chief, Opothele Yoholo, a Creek Chief followed his own Red Path, the Refugee's Path, as he led 9,000 out of Indian Territory to Kansas. This chief's followers became the Northern Indian Brigades. Caught up in the drama and intrigue of a nation torn apart - The Indian Nation - Chief Ross's spy, Jessie Longbow, and Ross's beautiful and intelligent niece, Raven Ross, a reporter for the Tahlequah Voice, try to maintain a romance that they believe is bigger and stronger than the turmoil of war. This means love amid wartime in the Trans-Mississsippi theater of war which history has long ignored. This novel does for the Native Americans of the Five Civilized Tribes what Glory did for Black Union soldiers. It is an important story that is grounded in fact and based on truth. The native population of Indian Territory saw more loss of life per capita than did any state, North or South. As John Jakes is one of my heroes, I have long wanted to write this story which has been some 20 years in the making. In the meantime, I have written 50+ previous novels. I had to write those in order to make this one happen. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Fria. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/161899/bk_acx0_161899_sample.mp3.

My Days: Happy and Otherwise , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 666min
For eleven seasons, Marion Ross was head of one of America's favorite television households. Now meet the lovable real-life woman behind the Happy Days mom... Before she was affectionately known to millions as "Mrs. C.," Marion Ross began her career as a Paramount starlet who went on to appear in nearly every major TV series of the 1950s and 1960s - including Love, American Style, in which she donned an apron that would cinch her career. Soon after came the fateful phone call from producer Garry Marshall that made her an "overnight" success, and changed her life... In this warm and candid memoir, filled with loving recollections from the award-winning Happy Days team - from break-out star Henry Winkler to Cunningham "wild child" Erin Moran - Ross shares what it was like to be a starry-eyed young girl with dreams in poor, rural Minnesota, and the resilience, sacrifices, and determination it took to make them come true. She recalls her early years in the business, being in the company of such luminaries as Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, and Noel Coward, yet always feeling the Hollywood outsider - a painful invisibility that mirrored her own childhood. She reveals the absolute joys of playing a wife and mother on TV, and the struggles of maintaining those roles in real life. But among Ross's most heart-rending recollections are those of finally finding a soulmate - another secret hope of hers made true well beyond her expectations. Funny, poignant, and revealing - and featuring Garry Marshall's final illuminating interview - as well as a touching foreword from her "TV son" Ron Howard, and a conversation with her real-life son and daughter, Marion Ross's story is one of inspiration, persistence, and gratitude. It's also a glowing tribute to all those who fulfilled her dreams - and in turn, gave us some of the happiest days of our own lives. Narrated by Marion Ross, David Laurell, Ron H ungekürzt.

The Patriarch (eBook, ePUB)
Ross and his brother-in-law, Bernard, froze as a shot rang out through the woods. The fishing on the lake had been good, and they made their way back to Ross's truck keeping their distance from the scattered cabins owned by a few of the community's well-to-do white citizens. Colored folks in Virginia always had to be on the lookout for Klansmen. "Sounded like it came from over yonder," Ross pointed east. "Probably somebody shooting at a snake or opossum." A ruckus of voices floated in their direction. "Sounds like somebody might need help." Bernard headed in the direction of the noise, his two fishing poles and a line with catfish, suckers, and perch dangling."Bernard." Ross's voice seeped of caution. "We shouldn't get mixed up with white folks' mess. If it is something, they'll try to blame us.""We'll keep our distance, but if somebody needs help, we should at least try."Ross reluctantly increased his pace to catch up with him. The closer they got to the cabin, the louder the ruckus. A woman's high-pitched screams echoed around them. "Oh my God. O dear God. You've killed her." Heavy sobs followed. "Get her the hell out of here," a man's voice bellowed. "How did this happen?" He moaned. The cabin door opened. Ross and Bernard stepped behind some trees. A hysterical white woman was ushered out of the cabin by a colored woman. "I'll make you pay for this you no-good bastard." The woman screamed toward the cabin door, "Murderer! Murderer! As God is my witness, I'll make you pay!""Ross." Bernard looked bewildered. "Is that Tilly putting that woman in the car?"Ross blinked and focused. "It sure is. What the hell is she doing out here with these folks?"Tilly managed to get the woman in the passenger seat, where she slumped over sobbing. She scurried around the car, got in, and drove off. The sobbing white woman still vowing, "I'm gonna make him pay for this."- Shop: buecher

The Copper Beech , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 677min
By the school house at Shancarrig stands a copper beech, its bark scarred with the names and dreams of the pupils who have grown up under its branches. Under Junior Assistant Mistress Maddy Ross's careful gaze the children play, but out of school Maddy's gaze lingers where it shouldn't. Maura Brennan, a bundle of fun from the rough end of town, plays with her pals: leap year baby Eddie Barton, the apple of his mother's eye, and Nessa Ryan, who little realises as she carves his name at the roots of the copper beech on the very last day of school that she'll get a lot more from one of her schoolmates than her first shy kiss. The Copper Beech is the gateway to Maeve Binchy's marvellous portrait of a small Irish town whose untroubled surface conceals the passions, rivalries, friendships, ambitions and jealousies beneath. ungekürzt.
