    Unterleuten, Hörbuch, Digital, 1089min
    Die Geschichte ist wie ein Kaleidoskop. Man dreht ein wenig, und alles sieht anders aus." Juli Zeh Manchmal kann die Idylle auch die Hölle sein. Wie das Dorf "Unterleuten" irgendwo in Brandenburg. Wer nur einen flüchtigen Blick darauf wirft, ist bezaubert von den schrulligen Originalen, die den Ort nach der Wende prägen, von der unberührten Natur mit den seltenen Vogelarten, von den kleinen Häusern, die sich Stadtflüchtige aus Berlin gerne kaufen. Doch als eine Investmentfirma einen Windpark in unmittelbarer Nähe der Ortschaft errichten will, brechen Streitigkeiten wieder auf, die lange Zeit unterdrückt wurden. Kein Wunder, dass schon wenige Tage später im Dorf die Hölle los ist... Mit "Unterleuten" hat Juli Zeh einen großen Gesellschaftsroman über die wichtigen Fragen unserer Zeit geschrieben, der hochspannend wie ein Thriller ist. Gibt es im 21. Jahrhundert noch eine Moral jenseits des Eigeninteresses? Woran glauben wir? Und wie kommt es, dass immer alle nur das Beste wollen, und am Ende trotzdem Schreckliches passiert? deutsch.

    In Byron's Wake , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1089min
    In 1815, the clever, courted and cherished Annabella Milbanke married the notorious and brilliant Lord Byron. Just one year later, she fled, taking with her their baby daughter, the future Ada Lovelace. Byron himself escaped into exile and died as a revolutionary hero in 1824, aged 36. The one thing he had asked his wife to do was to make sure that their daughter never became a poet.Ada didn't. Brought up by a mother who became one of the most progressive reformers of Victorian England, Byron's little girl was introduced to mathematics as a means of calming her wild spirits. Educated by some of the most learned minds in England, she combined that scholarly discipline with a rebellious heart and a visionary imagination.As a child invalid, Ada dreamed of building a steam-driven flying horse. As an exuberant and boldly unconventional young woman, she amplified her explanations of Charles Babbage's unbuilt calculating engine to predict, as nobody would do for another century, the dawn today of our modern computer age. When Ada died - like her father, she was only 36 - great things seemed still to lie ahead for her as a passionate astronomer. Even while mired in debt from gambling and crippled by cancer, she was frenetically employing Faraday's experiments with light refraction to explore the analysis of distant stars.Drawing on fascinating new material, Seymour reveals the ways in which Byron, long after his death, continued to shape the lives and reputations both of his wife and his daughter. During her life, Lady Byron was praised as a paragon of virtue; within 10 years of her death, she was vilified as a disgrace to her sex. Well over a 100 years later, Annabella Milbanke is still perceived as a prudish wife and cruelly controlling mother. But her hidden devotion to Byron and her tender ambitions for his mercurial, brilliant daughter reveal a deeply complex but unsuspectingly sympathetic personality.Miranda Seymour has written a masterf ungekürzt.

    Grand Central Arena , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1089min
    It was supposed to be a simple test flight, one that pilot Ariane Austin was on only as a last-ditch backup; intelligent, superhumanly fast automation would handle the test activation and flight of humanity's first faster-than-light vessel. But when the Sandrisson Drive activated, every automated system crashed, the nuclear reactor itself shut down, and only the reflexes and training of a racing pilot saved the test vessel Holy Grail from crashing into the impossible wall that had appeared before them, a wall which is just part of a monstrous enclosure surrounding a space 20,000 kilometers across. With all artificial intelligences inert and their reactor dead, they had to find some other source of power to reactivate the Sandrisson Drive and - hopefully - take them home. And that was only the beginning. As Ariane, Dr. Simon Sandrisson, darkly enigmatic power engineer Marc C. DuQuesne, and the rest of the Holy Grail's crew explore the immense artifact, they discover that they are not alone; they have entered a place the alien inhabitants call "The Arena", and there is no way out without joining one of the alien factions...or winning recognition as a faction in their own right, playing by the Arena's rules - and by the Arena's rules, one failed challenge could mean death or worse - perhaps for the entire human race. Surrounded by alien factions, each with its own secret plans and motivations, some wielding powers so strange as to be magical, Ariane sets out to beat the Arena at its own game. With DuQuesne's strategies, Sandrisson's genius, and her own unyielding determination, she's going to bring the Holy Grail home - even if she has to beat every faction in the Arena to do it! ungekürzt.

    Berlin: The Downfall: 1945 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1089min
    Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Berlin by Antony Beevor, read by Peter Nobel. Berlin: The Downfall: 1945 is Antony Beevor's brilliant account of the fall of the Third Reich. The Red Army had much to avenge when it finally reached the frontiers of the Reich in January 1945. Political instructors rammed home the message of Wehrmacht and SS brutality. The result was the most terrifying example of fire and sword ever known, with tanks crushing refugee columns under their tracks, mass rape, pillage and destruction. Hundreds of thousands of women and children froze to death or were massacred because Nazi Party chiefs, refusing to face defeat, had forbidden the evacuation of civilians. Over seven million fled westwards from the terror of the Red Army. Antony Beevor reconstructs the experiences of those millions caught up in the nightmare of the Third Reich's final collapse, telling a terrible story of pride, stupidity, fanaticism, revenge and savagery, but also one of astonishing endurance, self-sacrifice and survival against all odds. ungekürzt.
