    The Premier League: 25 Years: A History Written by the Fans for the Fans , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 477min
    The 2016/17 season marked the 25th of the Premier League. This book recognises that fact in a way which is factually accurate yet dismissive of reputations and hype. It recognises the achievements of Swindon and Barnsley as much as Manchester United and Chelsea and sneaks in references to borg drones from Star Trek, Oscar Wilde, Nirvana and Red Dwarf alongside analysis of the songs and seasons. Notts County fan Billy Ivory's foreword sets a tone of bitter irony as the story (shocked back to life by Leicester City) is told in unconventional fashion. Fans of all 49 teams who've been involved in Premier League have their say, except for Huddersfield (due to publishing deadlines), although we feel sure Patrick Stewart will want this one for Christmas....The Premier League charts each of the 25 seasons with the story of how the titles were won and the players who starred. From 2011/12's incredible finale to Arsenal's 'Invincibles' as well as each of Manchester United's record 13 triumphs, find out more about the rich history of the Premier League. ungekürzt.

Richard Dudgeon, who has become an outcast from his puritanical family due to his religious apostasy, returns home on the death of his father. Much to everyone’s surprise, it is revealed that the father changed his will shortly before his death and has left the bulk of the estate to Richard. Now that he is lord of the manor, Richard asserts himself and declares his opposition to the colonial British authorities. Later, he is arrested by the British and sentenced to death but is rescued in the nick of time by a local militia commanded by Anthony Anderson, who, ironically, is a pastor.CastNarrator - Alan Weyman Mrs. Dudgeon - Elizabeth KlettEssie - Grace GarrettChristy Dudgeon and Chaplain - Andy HarringtonAnthony Anderson - Jeff MoonJudith Anderson - Amanda FridayUncle William Dudgeon and General Burgoyne - Ron AltmanUncle Titus Dudgeon and Major Swindon - Chris MarcellusRichard Dudgeon - Ted WenskusHawkins and the Sergeant - Russell GoldAudio edited by Denis Daly Language: English.

    The Well of Lost Plots , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 627min
    Leaving Swindon behind her to hide out in the Well of Lost Plots (the place where all fiction is created), Thursday Next, Literary Detective and soon-to-be one parent family, ponders her next move from within an unpublished book of dubious merit entitled 'Caversham Heights'. Landen, her husband, is still eradicated, Aornis Hades is meddling with Thursday's memory, and Miss Havisham - when not sewing up plot-holes in 'Mill on the Floss' - is trying to break the land-speed record on the A409. But something is rotten in the state of Jurisfiction. Perkins is 'accidentally' eaten by the minotaur, and Snell succumbs to the Mispeling Vyrus. As a shadow looms over popular fiction, Thursday must keep her wits about her and discover not only what is going on, but also who she can trust to tell about it... With grammasites, holesmiths, trainee characters, pagerunners, baby dodos and an adopted home scheduled for demolition, 'The Well of Lost Plots' is at once an addictively exciting adventure and an insight into how books are made, who makes them - and why there is no singular for 'scampi'. Please note: Chapter 13 has been intentionally omitted from this title. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gabrielle Kruger.

    Irgendwo ganz anders: Thursday Next 5
    Thursday Next betrügt ihren Mann. Und das nicht erst seit gestern, sondern schon seit vierzehn Jahren! Als mehr oder weniger glückliche Mutter von Friday, Tuesday und Jenny lebt sie mit ihrem geliebten Ehemann Landen zusammen und geht auch jeden Morgen zur Tarnfirma Acme-Carpets, um die schöne Stadt Swindon mit Teppichen und Parkett zu versorgen. In Wirklichkeit ist Thursday natürlich weiter Geheimagentin für SpecOps und verschwindet regelmäßig in die BuchWelt, in der sie jetzt auch Lehrlinge ausbilden muss. Ganz zu schweigen vom lebhaften Käseschmuggel, mit dem sie die kümmerlichen Finanzen der Firma aufzumöbeln versucht. Von alledem darf ihre Familie nichts wissen. Dass diese Täuschungsmanöver auf Dauer nicht gutgehen können, liegt auf der Hand... Diese ungekürzte Hörbuch-Fassung genießt du exklusiv nur bei Audible.

    The Case of the 'Hail Mary' Celeste: The Case Files of Jack Wenlock, Railway Detective , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 604min
    It was Tuesday the second of December 1947 when Jenny the Spiddler walked into my office: almost a month before they nationalised my mother. Jack Wenlock is the last of the Railway Goslings: that fabled cadre of railway detectives created at the Weeping Cross Railway Servants' Orphanage, who trod the corridors of the GWR trains in the years 1925 to 1947. Sworn to uphold the name of God's Wonderful Railway and all that the good men of England fought for in two world wars, Jack keeps the trains free of fare dodgers and purse-stealers, bounders and confidence tricksters, German spies and ladies of the night. But now, as the clock ticks down towards the nationalisation of the railways Jack finds himself investigating a case that begins with an abducted great aunt, but soon develops into something far darker and more dangerous. It reaches up to the corridors of power and into the labyrinth of the greatest mystery in all the annals of railway lore- the disappearance in 1915 of 23 nuns from the 7:25 Swindon to Bristol Temple Meads, or the case of the "Hail Mary" Celeste. Shady government agents, drunken riverboat captains, a bandaged book-seller, a missing manuscript, a melancholic gorilla and a 4070 Godstow Castle engine - the one with a sloping throatplate in the firebox and the characteristic double cough in the chuffs - all collide on a journey that will take your breath away. ungekürzt.

    It's Not Me, It's You: Impossible perfectionist, 27, seeks very very very tidy woman, Hörbuch, Digital, 196min
    A control freak looks for love (women who leave wet teaspoons in sugar bowls need not apply). ‘I haven’t woken up with a cup of tea by the bed for seven years. It seems such a small thing but it’s one of a thousand things I miss about having someone around to take care of me. I have spent my entire adult life getting things the way I want them and all I want now is someone to give it all up for.’ Jon Richardson. Is your filing faultless? Your CDs, apostrophes, cutlery all in the right places? Can you eat a biscuit in the correct way? Then Jon Richardson (single for seven years and counting) could be your ideal man…Living alone in a one bedroom flat in Swindon, 27 year old Jon has had far too much time on his hands to think. In fact to obsess. About almost everything. Jon’s obsessive compulsive personality disorder has seen him arrange the coins in his pockets in ascending size and colour code his bookshelves. It takes him less than 90 seconds to locate a receipt for a pair of shoes he bought in 1997. Over to the filing cabinet and R for receipts, S for shoes. But Jon doesn’t want to be like this, in fact he would quite like to share his life with someone. But who could that someone be? Someone like himself, a quarrelsome perfectionist only with breasts and less body hair? Absolutely not. But who exactly is Jon looking for and where will he find her? Faced with a loveless future filled with his own peculiar quirks and perfectionism, Jon sets about his search for The One. The question is, will he mind her keeping the knives to the left of the forks in the cutlery drawer or organising the CDs by genre and not alphabetically? Language: English. Narrator: Jon Richardson.
