Natural History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 663min
A daring and original new novel from one of sci-fi’s most provocative voices, Natural History is a stunning work of bold ideas, unforgettable characters, and epic adventure as one woman seeks to explore what may be the greatest mystery of all... Imagine a world... Half-human, half-machine, Voyager Isol was as beautiful as a coiled scorpion–and just as dangerous. Her claim that she’d found a distant but habitable earthlike planet was welcome news to the rest of the Forged. But it could mean the end of what was left of the humanity who’d created and once enslaved them. Imagine a fate... It was on behalf of the “unevolved” humans that Professor Zephyr Duquesne, cultural archaeologist and historian of Earth’s lost worlds, was chosen by the Gaiasol military authority to uncover the truth about this second “earth.” And her voyage, traveling inside the body of Isol, will take her to the center of a storm exploding across a spectrum of space and time, dimension and consciousness. Imagine the impossible... On an abandoned planet, in a wrinkle of time, Isol and Zephyr will find a gift and a curse: A power so vast that once unlocked, it will change the universe forever. With civil war looming, Zephyr’s perilous journey will lead her to a past where one civilization mysteriously vanished...and another may soon follow. ungekürzt. Language: English.

When Force Meets Fate , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 519min
A memoir of a healthy young man who survives a fatal car crash only to be plagued by a mysterious illness that robs him of the ability to walk, talk, and eat solid food. When Force Meets Fate is a captivating, transcendent survival story that forces all of us to reckon with our mortality and the fragility of life. At age 22, Jamison Hill was a fitness instructor who could lift more than 400 pounds. Five years later, after surviving a tragic car accident that killed the other driver, a rare disease left Jamison bedridden and too weak to hold a water glass. He spent every day lying motionless in bed, his body paralyzed by pain and fatigue, his mind hijacked by flashes of crunched metal, broken windshields, and exploding gas tanks. After months of not being able to speak or eat, Jamison's health finally improved and he began to tell his story. When Force Meets Fate is an unflinching exploration of the human condition, notably how our strengths and limitations shape our identities and how unexpected events can inevitably alter our perceptions. It's a story of perseverance - of sheer will and unrelenting fight - but also of overcoming life's toughest challenges through the power of vulnerability and how freeing it can be to surrender to the unpredictability of circumstances out of our control. ungekürzt.

Stay , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 534min
Can you fall for someone you've never even met? Hailey Taylor Emery has a hunch that her favorite client at Fetch - an anonymous virtual assistant service - is actually hockey star Matt Eriksson. Although it's against the rules for her to check his file, she's 95 percent sure she spends at least part of each day texting with her lifelong crush and catering to his every need. Still nursing a wounded heart thanks to her recent breakup, Hailey is perfectly content with some harmless online flirting...until she has to meet her client. Face to face. Cue: utter panic. Matt Eriksson is no stranger to heartbreak. He's still not over the destruction of his marriage, and it sucks to be the only guy on the team who knows the truth - that hockey and long-term relationships are a toxic mix. He barely sees his kids, and dealing with his ex makes him feel insane. The only person in his life who seems to understand is someone who won't show her pretty face. But it's nothing that a pair of fourth row hockey seats can't fix. Hailey can't resist the offer. Matt can't resist Hailey. Good thing he doesn't have to. Fire up the kiss cam!

Dark Sky: The Misadventures of Max Bowman, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 513min
First Lieutenant Robert Davidson. The son of an American military legend and a war hero who died in combat during the Afghanistan conflict. Or did he? The answer could bring down a secret military empire - as well as a guy named Max Bowman. Max is a rude, crude and rapidly aging ex-CIA desk jockey who gets the job of tracking down the truth about Davidson - but his chances of actually discovering it are about half of that of finding a horse wearing a kimono. What Max doesn't know is that nobody wants the facts - and nobody expects Max to find them. But Max has to pay the rent. So he takes on the job, which takes him on a road trip into the heart of America's darkness as well as his own, where he has to deal with exploding homes, brutal murders, a sexy heiress, a misguided teenager and Max's girlfriend back home, who's cursing him out on a regular basis. And, oh yeah, a para-military organization that's just waiting for the right moment to kill him. It all happens in Dark Sky, a sardonic and suspenseful mystery-thriller in which an underwhelming hero must confront an overwhelming conspiracy - not to mention himself. This is the first book in the Max Bowman series. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: George Kuch. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/056141/bk_acx0_056141_sample.mp3.

Flashback , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 947min
When Sheriff Paul Davidson proposes marriage to Anna Pigeon, he doesn't get the reaction a man might hope for. Intrepid park ranger Anna runs all the way to the furthest scrape of American ground not found in Alaska or Hawaii. How's that for a no? Anna takes a new post as temporary supervisory ranger in Dry Tortugas National Park, 70 miles off Key West. Dry Tortugas is the site of the former prison for Lincoln conspirators during and after the Civil War. One of the seven islands in the chain is completely encircled by the massive stone walls of Fort Jefferson, a crumbling reminder of the site's gritty past. Now, the park looks like an island paradise. But as Anna quickly discovers, even the most picturesque and seemingly peaceful places have more than their share of shady goings-on. An exploding boat, the discovery of unidentifiable body parts, and the emergence of secrets both past and present put Anna's life in danger. Cut off from the modern world by poor communications and miles of water, she's developing a nasty case of cabin fever, one that just might pry her fingers from their tenuous grip on sanity. Full of stunning scenery and packed with breathtaking suspense, Flashback is everything a mystery fan could ask for and more. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Barbara Rosenblat.

Happy Customers Everywhere: How Your Business Can Profit from the Insights of Positive Psychology , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 400min
Experiential markering guru Bernd Schmitt shows marketers and brand managers everywhere how to harness the power of customer happiness. Every business knows that the best customer is a happy customer. They return again and again, bring their friends and family, and deliver tons of free advertising via word of mouth and social media. But in order to grow that loyal base, you must be keenly aware of your customers’ needs and preferences. Drawing on the latest research in the exploding field of positive psychology, renowned Columbia Business School marketing professor Bernd Schmitt offers three unique approaches any business can use to turn a casual customer into a committed fan: THE FEEL-GOOD METHOD: Use the experience of pleasure and positive emotion to hook new customers, and watch those feel-good moments transform an impulse buyer into a committed loyalist. THE VALUES-AND-MEANING METHOD: Attract passionate customers by appealing to their core values, like being socially responsible, protecting the environment, or living a simple life. THE ENGAGEMENT METHOD: Get customers to notice a unique or limited offer, immerse them in the experience, and have them share it with friends and family. Schmitt shows marketers, brand managers, and entrepreneurs how to design an authentic and successful campaign that will reach, grow, and sustain a devoted base of customers. ungekürzt.

Raising Wrecker , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 593min
After foster-parenting four young siblings a decade ago, the author, Summer Wood, tried to imagine a place where kids who are left alone or taken from their families would find the love and the family they deserve. For her, fiction was the tool to realize that world, and Wrecker, the central character in her second novel, is the abandoned child for whom life turns around in most unexpected ways. It's June of 1965 when Wrecker enters the world. The war is raging in Vietnam, San Francisco is tripping toward flower power, and Lisa Fay, Wrecker's birth mother, is knocked nearly sideways by life as a single parent in a city she can barely manage to navigate on her own. Three years later, she's in prison, and Wrecker is left to bounce around in the system before he's shipped off to live with distant relatives in the wilds of Humboldt County, California. When he arrives he's scared and angry, exploding at the littlest thing, and quick to flee. Raising Wrecker is the story of this boy and the motley group of isolated eccentrics who come together to raise him and become a family along the way. For listeners taken with the special boy at the center of The Story of Edgar Sawtelle, Wrecker will be a welcome companion. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gary Dikeos.
