    The Diabolist: Dominic Grey, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 775min
    In this gripping thriller, the bizarre murder of a Satanic priest in San Francisco draws Dominic Grey and Viktor Radek, private investigators of cults, to the scene. Witnesses claim a robed figure, seemingly able to appear and disappear at will, set fire to the priest. When the leader of another Satanic cult in Paris dies under similar circumstances, the case only grows stranger...and more dangerous. Convinced that a charismatic New Age prophet is behind the murders, the investigators undergo a perilous journey into the world of the occult as they try to penetrate the prophet’s inner circle. From the catacombs of Paris to London’s nefarious East End, from the haunted walls of York to a monastic fortress in the Sicilian wilderness, the case plunges Viktor and Grey into a vortex of black magic, ancient heresies, and the dark corners of their own pasts. The Diabolist is a chilling novel that pulsates with suspense from its beginning to the astonishing conclusion. The latest installment in one of today’s most original new thriller series is not to be missed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Berkrot.

    Balustrade: The Carnal Staircase , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 218min, (USK 18)
    A couple on the verge of divorce begrudgingly agree to an unorthodox marital retreat. Despite warnings and portents, Hilary and Jack travel to the remote Washington scablands, braving a strange religious demonstration to arrive at Balustrade, an oddly voyeuristic couples program. Under the tutelage of Chantal, a harsh mistress, and Ludo, a brooding sex surrogate, the couple find their most intimate relations under discomfiting scrutiny. The therapy is ritualistic, sensual, wearing away their inhibitions to lush, orgiastic ends. For a while, Hilary luxuriates in a slippery, sensual descent into wickedness. But when time begins to disintegrate in dream-like fugues, sexual awakening takes a turn for the sinister. Clandestine cabals whisper behind closed doors. Robed figures congregate in the dark cavern at the apex of the strange building's courtyard. Nothing is quite as it seems. And a question looms.... Is it the intention of Chantal and Balustrade to help mend their failing marriage? Or are their minds and bodies being groomed for more sinister, carnal purposes? Hilary must strive to unlock the secrets behind Balustrade before it pushes her to the brink of insanity and ignites her darkest urges. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Hollie Jackson.

    Crossbones , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 825min
    A gripping new novel from today's "most important African novelist". (The New York Times Review of Books)A dozen years after his last visit, Jeebleh returns to his beloved Mogadiscio to see old friends. He is accompanied by his son-in-law, Malik, a journalist intent on covering the region's ongoing turmoil. What greets them at first is not the chaos Jeebleh remembers, however, but an eerie calm enforced by ubiquitous white-robed figures bearing whips.Meanwhile, Malik's brother, Ahl, has arrived in Puntland, the region notorious as a pirates' base. Ahl is searching for his stepson, Taxliil, who has vanished from Minneapolis, apparently recruited by an imam allied to Somalia's rising religious insurgency. The brothers' efforts draw them closer to Taxliil and deeper into the fabric of the country, even as Somalis brace themselves for an Ethiopian invasion. Jeebleh leaves Mogadiscio only a few hours before the borders are breached and raids descend from land and sea. As the uneasy quiet shatters and the city turns into a battle zone, the brothers experience firsthand the derailments of war.Completing the trilogy that began with Links and Knots, Crossbones is a fascinating look at individuals caught in the maw of zealotry, profiteering, and political conflict, by one of our most highly acclaimed international writers. ungekürzt.

    The Middle Way: The Story of Buddhism, Hörbuch, Digital, 235min
    General interest in Buddism has never been higher. The story and teachings of a man who lived 2,500 years ago have a special resonance for us today, perhaps because he taught a way of life that was not based on belief in a creator god but rather on personal experience. "Test my words for yourself," he said. But what lies behind those distinctive images of the Buddha, seated with unshakeable poise, with eyes half-closed and a slight smile? How did Buddhism develop, from the austere style which governed the life of the yellow-robed monks in ancient India to the more colorful, even magical expression of Tibet? And where does Zen fit in? Jinananda, a Western-born Buddhist, divides the subject into the Three Jewels: The Buddha (a life of the historical figure), the Dharma (an account of the fundamental teachings), and the Sangha (the disciples, both lay and monastic, throughout the world). With extracts from some of the main sutras, Jinananda explains the key concepts that lie behind a system of thought and behavior which, like the universe itself, is continuously expanding. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. Language: English.

    Opening at the end of the 21st century, The Martian Wars is set in the land of Nova, formerly the United States of America. Nova is governed not by a president and congress but rather a prime minister and council. An old-age vaccine has extended human lives to as long as 300 years. Humans have colonized Mars, but what began as a heroic expedition has degraded over the years to a brutal existence of master and slave. Enter Penn Heron, a young man who seeks greatness but has not been tested. When he meets and falls in love with Sarah, he realizes he has found a vital ally in the great struggle that lies ahead. Together, they foment a rebellion against the central government. This turmoil on Earth invites an invasion of Martian forces, led by Celidus Guile and his minions, "the Guile". Penn and Sarah team up with their friend Joshua, the scarlet-robed Thaddeus (once a liaison between Mars and the council), and a band of rebels to fight off the ruthless Martian hordes. As the battle rages, Penn and his band of outcasts realize that Sarah possesses the power to lead the way to victory and beyond. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nick Mathews.

    Kenobi: Star Wars Legends
    NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The Republic has fallen. Sith Lords rule the galaxy. Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi has lost everything . . . everything but hope. Tatooine-a harsh desert world where farmers toil in the heat of two suns while trying to protect themselves and their loved ones from the marauding Tusken Raiders. A backwater planet on the edge of civilized space. And an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding, or an orphaned infant boy on whose tiny shoulders rests the future of a galaxy. Known to locals only as "Ben," the bearded and robed offworlder is an enigmatic stranger who keeps to himself, shares nothing of his past, and goes to great pains to remain an outsider. But as tensions escalate between the farmers and a tribe of Sand People led by a ruthless war chief, Ben finds himself drawn into the fight, endangering the very mission that brought him to Tatooine. Ben-Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, hero of the Clone Wars, traitor to the Empire, and protector of the galaxy's last hope-can no more turn his back on evil than he can reject his Jedi training. And when blood is unjustly spilled, innocent lives threatened, and a ruthless opponent unmasked, Ben has no choice but to call on the wisdom of the Jedi-and the formidable power of the Force-in his never-ending fight for justice.
