Brimstone Blues: Yancy Lazarus Series, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 627min
A demon king. An infernal city. The whole world hangs in the balance. Yancy Lazarus - mage, bluesman, and demon-souled - is having the worst hangover of his life. He just woke up in a dingy hotel in literal Hell with one eye missing, an arm covered in swirling golden tattoos, and no recollection of the past six months. All he wants is to figure out how he ended up in the Great Below and whether there’s a way home. But getting out of Hell is no easy feat. Yancy is the most wanted man in the infernal city of Pandæmonium, and he’s being hunted by demonic cutthroats for a series of high-profile murders he can’t remember committing. Now, Lazarus will have to rely on the help of a shape-shifting stranger with a dark past to battle his way past a legion of freakish Hellions and the murderous Derby-Girl Nation to reclaim a weapon capable of killing even immortals. And to escape Hell? Well, he’ll need to pull off the greatest coup the Abyss has seen since the Morning Star took on Heaven. If he fails, not only will the King of Pandæmonium roast his soul for eternity, but his friends will be left to the mercies of the Savage Prophet and the Morrigan, goddess of death. ungekürzt.

Just Kids , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 590min
National Book Award, Nonfiction, 2010 Patti Smith’s evocative, honest and moving coming-of-age story of her extraordinary relationship with the artist Robert Mapplethorpe A prelude to fame, Just Kids recounts the friendship of two young artists--Patti Smith and Robert Mapplethorpe – whose passion fueled their lifelong pursuit of art. In 1967, a chance meeting between two young people led to a romance and a lifelong friendship that would carry each to international success never dreamed of. The backdrop is Brooklyn, Chelsea Hotel, Max’s Kansas City, Scribner’s Bookstore, Coney Island, Warhol’s Factory and the whole city resplendent. Among their friends, literary lights, musicians and artists such as Harry Smith, Bobby Neuwirth, Allen Ginsberg, Sandy Daley, Sam Shepherd, William Burroughs, etc. It was a heightened time politically and culturally; the art and music worlds exploding and colliding. In the midst of all this two kids made a pact to always care for one another. Scrappy, romantic, committed to making art, they prodded and provided each other with faith and confidence during the hungry years--the days of cous-cous and lettuce soup. Just Kids begins as a love story and ends as an elegy. Beautifully written, this is a profound portrait of two young artists, often hungry, sated only by art and experience. And an unforgettable portrait of New York, her rich and poor, hustlers and hellions, those who made it and those whose memory lingers near. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Patti Smith.

Just Kids , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 590min
National Book Award, Nonfiction, 2010 It was the summer Coltrane died, the summer of love and riots, and the summer when a chance encounter in Brooklyn led two young people on a path of art, devotion, and initiation. Patti Smith would evolve as a poet and performer, and Robert Mapplethorpe would direct his highly provocative style toward photography. Bound in innocence and enthusiasm, they traversed the city from Coney Island to 42nd Street, and eventually to the celebrated round table of Max's Kansas City, where the Andy Warhol contingent held court. In 1969, the pair set up camp at the Hotel Chelsea and soon entered a community of the famous and infamous - the influential artists of the day and the colorful fringe. It was a time of heightened awareness, when the worlds of poetry, rock and roll, art, and sexual politics were colliding and exploding. In this milieu, two kids made a pact to take care of each other. Scrappy, romantic, committed to create, and fueled by their mutual dreams and drives, they would prod and provide for one another during the hungry years. Just Kids begins as a love story and ends as an elegy. It serves as a salute to New York City during the late 60s and 70s and to its rich and poor, its hustlers and hellions. A true fable, it is a portrait of two young artists' ascent, a prelude to fame. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Patti Smith.

The Legendary Adventures of the Pirate Queens , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 506min
The subtitle is A Serio-Comic Novel of Anne Bonny & Mary Read. It isn't the whole story of Anne and Mary; this is more like an origin story. The tale is essentially true in its outlines, but historical accuracy is occasionally overwhelmed by authorial invention. The scene is the Caribbean, 1718: Englishwoman Mary Read is forced to disguise herself as sailor Martin Read; then things get more complicated when she falls in love with another sailor, Peter Meredith, a brilliant man but rather clueless about the sea... who also has no idea that his best friend is a woman. To make matters worse, they're both captured by pirates. To make matters worse yet, one of the pirates is Anne Bonny, Southern belle turned scourge of the Caribbean. Anne takes a very strong liking to Martin Read - which enrages her lover, Captain Calico Jack Rackam. Mary's life becomes a whirlwind of intrigue, imprisonment, deadly duels, and unwanted sexual advances that are inappropriate even by the rather loose standards of 18th-century pirates. And there are other problems: the new Governor of the Bahamas wants to put an end to Anne Bonny's career, and a vicious enemy from Calico Jack's past is out for a bloody revenge. The only way out of all these various predicaments is for Mary Read and Anne Bonny to team up: to join swords and put their trust in each other and in no one else. Based on a true story, The Legendary Adventures of the Pirate Queens combines drama and comedy to tell the tale of two women who in ordinary times would never have met; and yet did meet, and went on to become the most fearsome pair of sea-faring hellions in the West Indies. ungekürzt.

The Road to Chama: Tales of the Old West, Book 32 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 228min
Early spring in the year 1885, near Chama, New Mexico Territory, Anetia "Tiny" Thompson Pascoe and her husband, Joel, were just about to have a house full of kids again. What a blessed good time they would have with grandkids, nieces, and nephews. Tiny's brother, William Thompson, and sister-in-law Amy had received a letter stating they must go to China to bring Amy's aging parents - father, Fuxing Zhang and mother, Deqin Guo - to America. Tiny and Joel were asked to watch her nieces, Vivian and Samantha, for up to six months, until William and Amy returned from China. That wouldn't have been too much, but a month later, their youngest son, Casey, who was in the Cavalry, was sent to Fort Laramie, Wyoming. Casey took his wife Amanda along with him, leaving their son Harrison with grandma and grandpa. It would only be for a couple of months, just until they got settled in. That would be great, as Harrison would have someone to play with, even though they were a couple of girls. Two weeks later their other son, Travis, took his wife Quinn and went to Denver, Colorado, on a business trip, leaving their son, Marshall, behind. Marshall was 10 years old, the same age as Vivian, and loved visiting his grandparent's farm and his cousins. Instead of no children under foot in years, Tiny now had four running, squealing, laughing, screaming, young hellions to keep out of trouble. Tiny stood, watching those kids play, and asked Joel, "Are we blessed or what? Lord, please give us strength." Joel laughed, "You might be blessed and need strength; I have a farm to run." ungekürzt.

Misadventures of the Laundry Hag Box Set: Books 1-4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1453min

Here are the misadventures of the laundry hag:Book 1: Skeletons in the ClosetMurder, mayhem, meet your match!Maggie Phillips hasn't had it easy. As the wife of a retired Navy SEAL and the adoptive mother of two little hellions, Maggie is constantly looking for ways to improve her family's financial situation. She accepts a cleaning position for her new neighbors (who redefine the term "eccentric"), never imagining she will end up as the sole alibi for a man with a fascination for medieval torture devices when he is brought up on murder charges.While Maggie struggles to prove the man's innocence, her deadbeat brother arrives, determined to sell Maggie and Neil on his next great scheme and to mooch with a vengeance. If that isn't bad enough, her in-laws, (the cutthroat corporate attorneys) descend on the house - armed with disapproval and condemnation - for the family's annual Thanksgiving celebration.As the police investigation intensifies, Maggie searches for the killer among the upper echelon of Hudson, Massachusetts, in the only way she can: by scrubbing their thrones. Of the porcelain variety, that is...Book 2: Swept Under the RugCrime and grime are everywhere, at least in Maggie Phillips' opinion. Deep in the throes of a New England winter, Maggie's still adjusting to her new role as confidential informant for the Hudson Police Department. When a suspicious fax is sent to one of her new clients, Maggie is sure she's unearthed a conspiracy. With no crime to investigate, however, the Hudson P.D. can do nothing - that is, until a wealthy trophy wife disappears, and the FBI is called in to the hunt.On the home front, her 12-year-old son is growing up way too fast, while her brother is back with a few surprises destined to w ungekürzt.

Sinister: Unsacred : Black Ops Paranormal Police Department, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 326min
Turns out that mind-control drugs really suck...It was bad enough for Evangeline to spend a year running for her life. Now, she was stuck between the Houses who were hunting for her, the hellion-run mob, and an army of normals who are on a power-drug. Oh, and let's not forget the team of Directors controlling the Black Ops Paranormal Police Department...they don't give two shits about her living or dying, they just want their missions completed. To make make matters even more fun, Andras and his merry band of asshole-hellions have taken over the mob. It provides him with a more organized way of taking out Evangeline, but it also gives him a taste of power that he's not had before. It's intoxicating. At this point, Eve can't help but wonder if surrendering and being gutted wouldn't be the smartest choice. It's a damn shame that all those years being mentored by Garrick had kicked her in the scruples. Leaving the city of Los Angeles to fall under the influence of a deadly drug combination just doesn't sit well with her. Too bad that fighting against the rash of normals who are on the stuff is akin to doing battle with mindless-zombies. Not those slow, meandering type who mumble a lot, either. I'm talking the incredibly fast, ferocious kind who seriously enjoy a nice afternoon chomping on someone's throat.But Eve has picked up the scent of something in all this, and when she unveils what she's learned, the tables begin to turn. The worry is whether or not they'll turn before Evangeline, her team, and the city of Los Angeles gets shredded....The Paranormal Police Department has delighted thousands of listeners with action, adventure, outrageous (and often offensive) comedy, and tons of snark. Grab your badge and join the legion of fans who keep begging for more.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nicole Poole.
