    Perry Rhodan, Sammelband 23: Perry Rhodan 2620-2629, Hörbuch, Digital, 1996min
    In der Milchstraße schreibt man das Jahr 1469 NGZ. Perry Rhodan und seine unsterblichen Gefährten wollen die Einigung der Galaxis weiter voranbringen; die uralten Konflikte zwischen den Zivilisationen sollen der Vergangenheit angehören. Dabei soll die phänomenale Transport-Technologie des Polyport-Netzes behilflich sein. Mithilfe dieser Technologie bestehen Kontakte zu weit entfernten Sterneninseln, allen voraus der Galaxis Anthuresta, wo sich die Stardust-Menschheit weiter entwickelt. Doch längst lauert eine ganz andere Gefahr, von der die Bewohner der Milchstraße bislang nichts ahnen können. Sie hat etwas mit kosmischen Entwicklungen zu tun, hat aber auch ganz direkte Auswirkungen auf die Erde - und auf Perry Rhodan selbst. Enthalten sind zehn Episoden des "Neuroversum-Zyklus": Perry Rhodan 2620: Fremde in der Harmonie, Perry Rhodan 2621: Der Harmoniewächter, Perry Rhodan 2622: Die Rebellen von Escalian, Perry Rhodan 2623: Die zweite Anomalie, Perry Rhodan 2624: Todesfalle Sektor Null, Perry Rhodan 2625: Das Plejaden-Attentat, Perry Rhodan 2626: Suche im Sektor Null, Perry Rhodan 2627: Die letzten Tage der GEMMA FRISIUS, Perry Rhodan 2628: Der verzweifelte Widerstand, Perry Rhodan 2629: Die Weltengeißel.

    Man Plus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 435min
    Roger Torraway watched in horror as the monster lurched, toppled over and died. Project Man Plus had gone suddenly and drastically wrong. The race to colonize Mars was too important, too costly, and America was already too committed, for plans to be scrapped. They would have to make a new Martian. And Roger Torraway was it, candidate for the endless surgery, operation after painful operation, that would enable him to survive on that faraway planet. Man Plus is a thrilling race against time - to land on Mars on schedule, to insure that Roger's system will withstand the stress that killed the previous candidate. And meanwhile, somewhere, somehow, there has been a breakdown in the computer network.... With the edge-of-the-chair excitement and suspense, four-time Hugo Award winner Frederik Pohl tells the story of the remaking of man into Man Plus, creating in Roger an unforgettable character, grotesque in appearance but totally human in feeling - capable of yearning, depression, love, jealousy, terror. BONUS AUDIO: In an exclusive introduction, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Robert J. Sawyer explains why Man Plus is one of science fiction's all-time greatest novels. ungekürzt.

    Good Dog. Stay. , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 43min
    The life of a good dog is like the life of a good person, only shorter and more compressed." So writes Pulitzer Prize-winning author Anna Quindlen about her beloved black Labrador retriever, Beau. With her trademark wisdom and humor, Quindlen reflects on how her life has unfolded in tandem with Beau's, and on the lessons she's learned by watching him: to roll with the punches, to take things as they come, to measure herself not in terms of the past or the future but of the present, to raise her nose in the air from time to time and, at least metaphorically, to holler, "I smell bacon!" Of the dog that once possessed a catcher's mitt of a mouth, Quindlen reminisces, "There came a time when a scrap thrown in his direction usually bounced unseen off his head. Yet put a pork roast in the oven, and the guy still breathed as audibly as an obscene caller. The eyes and ears may have gone, but the nose was eternal. And the tail. The tail still wagged, albeit at half-staff. When it stops, I thought more than once, then we'll know." Heartening and bittersweet, Good Dog. Stay. honors the life of a cherished and loyal friend and offers us a valuable lesson about our four-legged family members: Sometimes an old dog can teach us new tricks. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Aliens at the Pentagon, Hörbuch, Digital, 65min
    For years, the US government denied they investigated UFOs, so when the existence of a secret Pentagon program to study the phenomenon was revealed in late 2017, the bombshell revelation made headline news around the world. The Pentagon’s classified UFO project was so cleverly hidden, it didn’t even use the term "UFO" in its title. Known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP for short), this multi-million dollar classified program researched and investigated UFOs, with even Congress knowing nothing about this super-secret unit. Nick Pope used to investigate UFOs and other unexplained phenomena for the British government, leading the media to call him the real Fox Mulder. Now Nick exposes the secretive workings of the Pentagon’s real-life X-Files unit, using his knowledge and past experience to tell the incredible story as only a true government insider can. Learn the secret history of AATIP - how they studied videos of military jets chasing UFOs, looked at "mystery metals", and even conducted tests on close encounter witnesses. Nick puts the AATIP story into context, revealing how a "believer faction" within government is making its move, and explaining how and why they’ve taken their work out of government and into the private sector. This work takes us tantalizingly close to a definitive explanation of the UFO mystery, but that explanation might not be the one people are hoping for, because the T in AATIP stands for “threat” - and there’s a reason for that.

    Secret Ingredients: The New Yorker Book of Food and Drink , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1497min
    Since its earliest days, The New Yorker has been a tastemaker - literally. As the home of A. J. Liebling, Joseph Wechsberg, and M. F. K. Fisher, who practically invented American food writing, the magazine established a tradition that is carried forward today by irrepressible literary gastronomes including Calvin Trillin, Bill Buford, Adam Gopnik, Jane Kramer, and Anthony Bourdain. Now, in this indispensable collection, The New Yorker dishes up a feast of delicious writing on food and drink, from every age of its fabled 80-year history. There are memoirs, short stories, tell-alls, and poems - ranging in tone from sweet to sour and in subject from soup to nuts. M. F. K. Fisher pays homage to “cookery witches,” those mysterious cooks who possess “an uncanny power over food,” while John McPhee valiantly trails an inveterate forager and is rewarded with stewed persimmons and white-pine-needle tea. There is Roald Dahl’s famous story “Taste,” in which a wine snob’s palate comes in for some unwelcome scrutiny, and Julian Barnes’s ingenious tale of a lifelong gourmand who goes on a very peculiar diet for still more peculiar reasons. Adam Gopnik asks if French cuisine is done for, and Calvin Trillin investigates whether people can actually taste the difference between red wine and white. We journey with Susan Orlean as she distills the essence of Cuba in the story of a single restaurant, and with Judith Thurman as she investigates the arcane practices of Japan’s tofu masters. Closer to home, Joseph Mitchell celebrates the old New York tradition of the beefsteak dinner, and Mark Singer shadows the city’s foremost fisherman-chef. Selected from the magazine’s plentiful larder, Secret Ingredients celebrates all forms of gustatory delight.  ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Bramhall, Mark Deakens, Susan Denaker, Kimberly Farr, Stephen Hoye, John Lee, Don Leslie, Arthur Morey.
