    No Other Gods: In God's Voice , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 114min
    No Other Gods, Volume 1, is written in the voice of God. It's basically a letter to his church in the last days to prepare us for what's just ahead on the horizon. Because the world is about to change, drastically. And whether our experience is bumpy or smooth is entirely up to us. For smooth sailing, we must give our lives to him now - our whole life, without reservation. For if we maintain control of one area or whole sections of our heart, leaving God only a small portion of all the love that is inside us, He will wrest control of the rest. And it won’t feel restful. It will feel brutal. Our best game plan, He says, is to give Him all now, so He doesn't have to take it by trial later on. It’s the end of the age. There’s no time to lose. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Terri Buckingham. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/212860/bk_acx0_212860_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Mapp and Lucia, Hörbuch, Digital, 217min
    Mapp and Lucia is the centrepiece of E. F. Benson's series of Lucia novels - bringing together for the first time the eponymous middle-aged doyennes of polite 1930s society Miss Elizabeth Mapp and Emmeline Luca (Lucia to her friends). Lucia, recently widowed, is the newcomer to the village of Tilling and eager to wrest the reins of social supremacy from the incumbant Miss Mapp and install herself as its benevolent dictator. In their polite acts of sabotage and ruthless jockeying for the position of cultural arbiter Mapp and Lucia tear up the conventions of drawing-room bridge evenings as their deadly weapons. Things finally come to a head with Miss Mapp's audacious attempt to steal her rival's celebrated Lobster a la Riseholme. E.F. Benson's charming satrical bent turns the pretensions and snobberies of English village life into a vicious comedy. Language: English. Narrator: Miriam Margolyes.
