    It's 1999, and on the Turkish half of Cyprus, the ever-enterprising Leggy Starlitz has alighted - pausing on his mission to storm the Third World with the G-7 girls, the cheapest, phoniest all-girl band ever to wear Wonderbras and spandex. His market is staring him in the face: millions of teenagers trapped in a world of mullahs and mosques, all ready to blow their pocket change on G-7's massive merchandising campaign - and to wildly anticipate music the band will never release.Leggy's brilliant plan means doing business with some of the world's most dangerous people. Among these thieves, schemers, and killers, he must act quickly and decisively. Y2K is just around the corner - and the only rule to live by is that the whole scheme stops before the year 2000. But Leggy's G-7 Zeitgeist is in serious jeopardy, for in Istanbul, his former partners are getting restless - and the G-7 girls are beginning to die... ungekürzt. Language: English.

    It's not always easy being a female warrior with a nickname like Annwyl the Bloody. Men tend to either cower in fear-a lot-or else salute. It's true that Annwyl has a knack for decapitating legions of her ruthless brother's soldiers without pausing for breath. But just once it would be nice to be able to really talk to a man - the way she can talk to Fearghus the Destroyer. Too bad that Fearghus is a dragon, of the large, scaly, and deadly type. With him, Annwyl feels safe - a far cry from the feelings aroused by the hard-bodied, arrogant knight Fearghus has arranged to help train her for battle. With her days spent fighting a man who fills her with fierce, heady desire, and her nights spent in the company of a magical creature who could smite a village just by exhaling, Annwyl is sure life couldn't get any stranger. She's wrong. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Hollie Jackson. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/tant/006588/bk_tant_006588_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    How sharp is your thinking? This fantastic audiobook contains over 100 puzzles and brainteasers designed to really test that grey matter. From cunningly worded traps to seriously tricky lateral thinking problems, narrator Kent Harris will likely have you scratching your head...until he reveals the answer, at which point - of course - you’ll claim you knew it all along! This audiobook contains the brainteasers presented in two different formats: Initially the questions are given a section at a time: one track sees Kent asking you 10 questions, then in the following track he will provide the answers. However, if you want to hear the answers straight after each question - ideal for listening in the car or on headphones - then skip all the way to track 23, where Kent provides the answer for each question after pausing to allow you time to think. Time to prove just how smart you are...good luck! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kent Harris. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/entn/000884/bk_entn_000884_sample.mp3.

    A masterful new collection by award-winning poet Russell Thornton. In "Greek Fire," one of the poems in Russell Thornton's astonishing new collection, the central image is of fire burning through water: "water is a bridge / for a fire to come into the world." This image also illuminates the driving force that animates the poems in Answer to Blue. The stillness and quiet depth characteristic of Thornton's poetry are here shot through with an irresistible vitality, a flame of mythic resonance. The past, both ancient and recent, exerts a gravitational pull throughout the collection, with Greek myths, family histories and biblical passages unearthed and examined, forgotten and returned to, giving way in a cyclical rhythm to the transient presence of young children and the death of a parent. With a clarity that pierces through the mist of daily routine, Thornton gives attention to transitional states, pausing at the often rushed-through moments of change, and also examines the phenomenon of perception itself. This collection's response to D.H. Lawrence's question-"Oh what in you can answer to this blueness?"-is both an answer and a challenge, an achievement of beauty that contains the seed of something more enduring and sacred.

    In one memorable The Simpsons moment, Homer laughs hysterically at a standup comic, pausing only to gasp, "It's true, we're so lame!" In a sense, that is author Chris Turner's main thesis: Over the last 15 years, The Simpsons has chronicled the absurdities and the defining events of an increasingly confusing culture. At the same time, Turner suggests, the show has transcended being just a cartoon and has had a profound and lasting influence, defining attitudes toward everything from pop culture to global politics. This extremely funny examination of the 18-time Emmy-winning show uses individual characters to define different facets of the American personality: Homer is the slightly doltish but well-meaning everyman; Lisa speaks as the show's social conscience; Bart is the punk icon; Marge the moral authority; and C. Montgomery Burns represents the evil of unchecked capitalism. The ensemble provides a framework for identifying, through ruthless parody and subversive wit, the wrongs of our time. By Turner's analysis, the popularity of the show illustrates a generation's cynicism, restlessness, and ultimately, optimism and love of humanity. Language: English. Narrator: Oliver Wyman.

    Nothing ever changes in Sanders. The town's still got a video store, for God's sake. So why doesn't Eli Teague want to leave? Not that he'd ever admit it, but maybe he's been waiting - waiting for the traveler to come back. The one who's roared into his life twice before, pausing just long enough to drop tantalizing clues before disappearing in a cloud of gunfire and a squeal of tires. The one who's a walking anachronism, with her tricorne hat, flintlock rifle, and steampunked Model A Ford. The one who's being pursued by...something. So when the mysterious traveler finally reappears, Eli's determined that this time, he's going to get some answers. But his hunt soon yields far more than he bargained for, plunging him headlong into a dizzying world full of competing factions and figures straight out of legend. To make sense of the mystery at its heart, he must embark on a breakneck chase across the country and through two centuries of history - with nothing less than America's past, present, and future at stake. ungekürzt.

    A shot rang out. The Arabs surged forward under a savage fusillade of heavy fire. Nearer and nearer they came, shouting with hate and blood-lust. Geste rushed up and down his side of the roof, pausing only long enough to load his rifle and fire into the shrieking mob below, hoping to trick the Arabs into believing the fort was heavily manned. Load, aim, and fire, ignoring the cries and curses of the wounded, the dead sprawled out in their own blood. Of all those hard-bitten veterans who had yelled their defiance at the first Arab onslaught, who had shouted with joy at the order of "Aux Armes!", only 10 remained, 10 legionnaires against a thousand Arabs. Beau Geste is the world-famous novel of suspense and adventure, love and glory, courage, and treachery. It is the thrilling story of three men who braved the hellish brutality and ruthless savagery of the French Foreign Legion to protect the honor of a woman they loved more than their lives. ungekürzt.

    Achieving work-life balance seems to be a goal that eludes most people today, though many crave it. In this ultra-hectic world, with so much competing for your time and attention, how do you create a sense of control at work, home, and every place in between? In this illuminating session, professional speaker and author Jeff Davidson, who has written such books at Simpler Living, Breathing Space, and The 60 Second Self-Starter, lays out a plan for achieving work-life balance based on lessons in nine categories. The categories include breathing lessons, digestion lessons, nutrition lessons, pacing lessons, pausing lessons, leisure lessons, quiet lessons, sleeping lessons, and reflection lessons. In each of these categories, Jeff discusses the prevailing behavior in which most people engage, followed by the desired behavior that would lead to a great sense of breathing space. The result is an invigorating session, unlike anything you’ve heard, which will enables you to put your hands on the tools and levers that add up to a greater experience of work-life balance, more often throughout the day, every day. ungekürzt.
