The Immortality Science Fiction Bundle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1408min
This bundle includes six science fiction audiobooks all with a common theme: immortality. The main character in each story lives an extraordinarily long life and has many adventures along the way. Being an international writer on longevity and spiritual or psychic abilities, I try to be realistic about the development process of longevity and these abilities. The Psychic Soldier series, books one through four - in this series, the hero Tristin Morgan is born in the early 19th century. He becomes a British soldier and develops his psychic abilities to fight various evils and even aliens as the series develops. The adventures go from learning in "The School of the Gods" in the Himalayas, to participating in major 20th-century wars, to meeting and fighting aliens. Personal Freedom books one and two - in part one, we learn the story of a young man who lost hope - then found it again. This led him to a career in space manufacturing which evolved into a project building habitats in space. There have been a lot of discussions about space habitats, but how would you actually build one, and what technical and personal issues would arise in the process? Part two is about converting the habitats to an interstellar spaceship to settle a new planet. It is a long journey with major dangers along the way, a generational ship with long-lived residents. What new abilities would people develop on a long journey to the stars? Follow this adventure to learn the realistic challenges of an interstellar journey. Out of This Universe is a science fiction collection combining many elements of immortality, psychic powers, and the fate of the universe in a wonderful story spanning many ages of time. The story follows the life of Steven and his friends as he proceeds through innumerable ages of existence, fighting forces which not even the Gods totally understand. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Blithedale Romance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 532min
Miles Coverdale, embarks on a quest for the betterment of the world through the agrarian lifestyle and community of the Blithedale Farm. The story begins with a conversation between Coverdale and Old Moodie, a character who reappears throughout the story. The legend of the mysterious Veiled Lady is introduced; she is a popular clairvoyant who disappears unannounced from the social scene. Coverdale then makes the voyage to Blithedale, where he is introduced to such characters as Zenobia and Mr. and Mrs. Silas Foster. At their first community dinner, they are interrupted by the arrival of Hollingsworth, a previous acquaintance of Coverdale's, who is carrying a frail, pale girl. Though Hollingsworth believes the girl (whose age is never clarified) is an expected guest, none of the Blithedale citizens recognize her. She immediately develops a strong attachment to Zenobia, and reveals her name to be Priscilla. Soon after, Coverdale becomes severely ill and is bedridden. During his sickness, he believes he is on the brink of death and develops a closeness with Hollingsworth due to their anxiety-ridden situation and discussion of worldly ideals. Hollingsworth and Zenobia take care of him, and he returns to health shortly. As he recovers and spring comes, the residents of the community begin to work the land successfully and prove to their neighbors the plausibility of their cause. Priscilla starts to open up, and relationships between the other characters develop as well. Tension in the friendship between Coverdale and Hollingsworth intensifies as their philosophical disagreements continue. Meanwhile, Zenobia and Hollingsworth become close and rumor flies they might build a house together. Mr. Moodie makes a reappearance and asks about Priscilla and Zenobia for reasons to be revealed later. Coverdale then meets a stranger who turns out to be a Professor Westervelt. Westervelt also asks about Zenobia and Hollingsworth. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Fried. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/reco/008691/bk_reco_008691_sample.mp3.

First published as Journal of The Gallery London in 1993 with revised editions in 1998, 2001, 2008, and 2011, over 600 entries chronicle the life of the city: a powerfully driven arena of dysfunctional experience. Episodes record incidents and encounters in the streets, the movement of shoppers and travelers, and scenes of social and internal life. As the journal develops, fact and fiction blend into a film-like sequence of events.
