Supremacy's Shadow: Dueling Planets, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 703min
Half Han Solo, half Deadpool, Hayden Cross tries to stop an interplanetary war while relentlessly mocking everyone involved.A new "grimsnark" science fiction thriller set on two planets in a barycentric orbit in the far future.From the Back Cover:For Hayden Cross, a military investigator in the far future, whether his wife faked her death is the question that is probably going to get him killed. Having lost the only job that kept him sane, he has few resources and fewer leads. Oh, and a sadistic crime lord really wants to kill him.As he fights through an underworld of fanatical rebels, callous bounty hunters, and corrupt cops, each step takes him closer to the truth about his wife’s fate and the oppressive government he once loyally served. On the way, he may even liberate a planet and stop a war...but only if he betrays everyone he loves.Praise for Supremacy's Shadow"Hayden Cross covers his inner turmoil with the kind of devil-may-care banter that we're accustomed to hearing from the mouths of Humphrey Bogart, Harrison Ford, or Bruce Willis.... If you're looking for an old-school snarky hero in an up-to-date SF book, this is the story for you." (Don Sakers, Analog Science Fiction and Fact)"A refreshing break from all those moody, thinky, burdensome award-winners, this book shoots first and asks questions later." (David Chang, editor at Space Squid)"The snark of Deadpool and the sci-fi realism of The Expanse, left on your door step and set aflame." (A.Z. Anthony, author of Servant of Rage)"...a bit of Die Hard (in the future) fun." (Lilyn G., reviewer at Scifi and Scary)"...reads like Harrison Ford's voiceover for Blade Runner 2079 before the director's cut."

The Tyranny of the Night: The Instrumentalities of the Night, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1205min
Welcome to the world of the Instrumentalities of the Night, where imps, demons, and dark gods rule in the spaces surrounding upstart humanity. At the edges of the world stand walls of ice which push slowly forward to reclaim the land for the night. And at the world's center, in the Holy Land where two great religions were born, are the Wells of Ihrain, the source of the greatest magics. Over the last century the Patriarchs of the West have demanded crusades to claim the Wells from the Pramans, the followers of the Written. Now an uneasy truce extends between the Pramans and the West, waiting for a spark to start the conflict anew.Then, on a mission in the Holy Land, the young Praman warrior Else is attacked by a creature of the Dark - in effect, a minor god. Too ignorant to know that he can never prevail over such a thing, he fights it and wins, and in so doing, sets the terrors of the night against him.As a reward for his success, Else is sent as a spy to the heart of the Patriarchy to direct their attention away from further ventures into the Holy Lands. Dogged by hidden enemies and faithless allies, Else witnesses senseless butchery and surprising acts of faith as he penetrates to the very heart of the Patriarchy and rides alongside their armies in a new crusade against his own people. But the Night rides with him, too, sending two of its once-human agents from the far north to assassinate him.Submerged in his role, he begins to doubt his faith, his country, even his family. As his mission careens out of control, he faces unanswerable questions about his future. It is said that God will know his own, but can one who has slain gods ever know forgiveness? ungekürzt.

Texas Lost : Lone Star Lovers, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 420min
His career is in her hands - will he risk his future to save her?Clarice Sutton, daughter of privilege, was raised to lead society, but that life feels increasingly empty, so instead of taking her proper place in their social set, she's taken a job her parents abhor: police department psychologist. The company she keeps and the people she meets horrify her oh-so-proper parents and their friends. Santino "Saint" Valdez - hard-nosed detective who is anything but saintly - is under investigation by Internal Affairs for killing a predator he's not at all sorry to have eliminated. Now he's supposed to spill his guts to Miss Prim and Prissy? No way - not ever. Yet she's not what he expects, and he surprises her, as well. A growing attraction complicates both their lives, and time spent together only strengthens the unwise bond between the mongrel from the streets and the society girl.Saint's future depends on Clarice's professional evaluation, yet her feelings toward him are increasingly anything but professional. An Internal Affairs detective who trusts her wants Saint's head in a noose, so the stakes couldn't be higher. New on the job, Clarice can't afford to falter, yet the urge to defend the man who won't defend himself is powerful.And when Clarice learns that the parents she's tried so hard to please have lied to her all her life, the only person she trusts to understand how lost and alone she feels is the very man she must avoid in order to save him.As the forces against Saint gather, he knows the worst thing he can do is spend time with her and risk tainting her evaluation…yet how can he turn away from her soft and valiant heart when she's suffering so?When those out to get him endanger her safety, will Saint risk everything to save her? ungekürzt.

Bluebird Memories: A Journey Through Lyrics & Life, Hörbuch, Digital, 81min
“I’m an instrument, stay in tune with me.” In a performance that combines the personal and poetic with the literary and the lyrical, Grammy, Oscar, Emmy, and Golden Globe-winning artist Common spins something entirely new and bold for both his old-school fans and those new to one of hip-hop’s most essential voices. This is Bluebird Memories, part of Audible's Words + Music that blends storytelling, music, and performance to create a one-of-a-kind listening experience.Written and conceived by Common with Awoye Timpo and NSangou Njikam, originally recorded live at the Minetta Lane Theatre in New York City, and backed by a world-class band including special guest appearance by Robert Glasper and an ensemble of vocalists, Bluebird Memories tracks Common’s intimate journey from childhood to manhood. At its heart, it serves as both an open letter to his estranged father and a personal meditation on the quest for greater self-understanding, self-worth, and connection to the world that surrounds him.As a young artist, introduced to the work of literary icons from James Baldwin and Gwendolyn Brooks to Rakim and Melle Mel, Common would grow to use their works as motivation and a high-water mark for what would become his life in words. In a performance that recounts stories about growing up in Chicago, discovering hip-hop, longing for a consistent father, and his awakening into Black consciousness, the evolution of Common, as son, as man, artist, and activist, is all here - unpacked and laid bare.At just under two hours, Bluebird Memories is constantly in motion, soaring with emotion and pulsing with raw vitality. Seamlessly blending, stretching, and playing with forms, Common slides between poetry and candid conversation, kicks into one of his classic tracks, and backs out into a moment of nearly silent reflection. For those hip-hop heads, the treat of hearing Common bounce between bars of his own self-admitted cringe Language: English. Narrator: Common.

Brimstone: An Apocalyptic End-Times Thriller (Kingdom of Darkness, Book 2) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 365min
And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! (Revelation 8:13)Jesus warned that the Great Tribulation would be a time of unmatched tumult and human suffering. As Emilio and Mackenzie are finding out, the Messiah’s words were no hyperbole.

But the coming wave of destruction foretold by the prophecies will bring about chaos they never could have imagined.Upon arriving back at the resistance compound in Kentucky, Emilio and Mackenzie discover a deep schism among the members. Multiple people are attempting to fill the power vacuum left by Hinkle’s death. If the group can’t work out their differences, they’ll never be able to stand against the Global Order.The Third Trumpet sounds, and a comet strikes the earth, which releases heavy toxins into the environment. Chemicals from the asteroid leach into the ground and poison the water supply. The group rushes to find a solution, but some of the members give up and head for the nearest OASIS city in Atlanta. Emperor Lucius Alexander promises distilled water and sustenance in exchange for the souls of those who will bow only to him.As if Emilio and Mackenzie didn’t have enough trouble already, they’re spotted by Global Order peacekeepers while on a mission to salvage materials for a lager water distillation system. If they manage to survive the firefight, more tribulation and turmoil await. They’ll need to be strong in body, mind, and spirit if they have any hope at all of surviving the coming catastrophe.As with all works by Mark Goodwin, this book contains no profanity and no embarrassing sex scenes.

A Wolfe Among Dragons: Sons of de Wolfe (De Wolfe Pack, Book 8) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 717min
James died in Papa's arms. (Penelope de Wolfe from Serpent)Get ready for perhaps the greatest de Wolfe adventure yet....The sons of William de Wolfe (The Wolfe) are immortal, so they say. Men who are known as ShadowWolfe...DarkWolfe...Nighthawk...are as legendary as their father. The eldest four sons - Scott, Troy, Patrick, and James - have always run in a pack. They are all to each other, in both brotherhood and in strength. But in AD 1282, James de Wolfe, the endearing and gentle brother, is killed in Wales as the Welsh rebel against Henry III...or was he?Five years later, tales of a Welsh warrior known as Blaidd Cryf, or Blayth the Strong, are making way to English ears along the Welsh Marches. It's AD 1286, and a Welsh warrior who can somehow read the minds of the English armies is rising to power among the last princes of Wales. With Blayth leading the Welsh armies, the English are being handed defeat after defeat. No one knows who Blayth is or where he's come from, but the English warlords are coming to realize they will lose Wales if Blayth and his brilliant tactics aren't stopped.Some even believe Blayth (the phonetic pronunciation for Blaidd, meaning wolf in Welsh) may be the most deadly warrior Wales - and England - has ever seen.Helping Blayth in stirring the rebellion is the great-granddaughter of the last king of Deheubarth. Called the "Dragon Princess" by the Welsh, Asmara ap Cader is a fierce warrior in her own right. She fights in the rebellion and is deadly in her aim, and even as Blayth leads the Welsh, he cannot help but be attracted to the lovely Dragon Princess who fights so brilliantly beside him.As the romance between Blayth and Asmara begins to blossom, rumors come from Wales that Blayth the Strong is none other than James de Wolfe. When William catches wind of this, he will stop at nothing to discover the truth to these rumors, including risking his very life to discove ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Brad Wills.
