    I wanted him from the moment I laid eyes on him and from that point on, the question wasn't if I'd have him but when...Thirty-five-year-old Matias de la Vega is good at one thing and one thing only. Though he doesn't officially carry the title of killer when it comes to his role in an underground vigilante group, he's got no problem getting his hands dirty if it means getting justice for those who can't get it on their own.Such is the case when single dad Sam Wittier is confronted by a stalker bent on murder. While neutralizing the threat is all in a day's work for Matias, what comes after is anything but.

After handing the reins of his successful business over to his older son, Sam is happy to settle into the quiet, simple life of being a full-time single dad to his newly adopted little boy.Unfortunately, life didn't get the message.

One night will be enough to end my obsession with him. It has to be...While Sam and Matias share a white-hot chemistry that neither has ever known before, that' ungekürzt. Language: English.

    From the very beginning of his career, Robert Sheckley was recognized by fans, reviewers and fellow authors as a master storyteller and the wittiest satirist working in the science fiction field. Rediscover - or discover for the first time - a master of science fiction who, according to the New York Times, was "a precursor to Douglas Adams". The Journey of Joenes, also published as Journey Beyond Tomorrow, tells the tale of a picaresque journey through an imagined future taken by a naive and innocent man unprepared for the wonders and oddities he encounters. Sheckley examines the present through the distorting lens of a future wonderfully skewed from and yet darkly, hilariously, similar to our own world. "I have always loved Robert Sheckley... I don't know of anyone else in SF who has written quite so many classic stories... wittier than Pohl... blacker than Lenny Bruce, subtler and more bent that the Firesigns and Monty Python put together... The key words with Sheckley are clever, deadly cool, and crazy as a bedbug." —Spider Robinson ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jay Snyder.

    The future is governed through a genetic hierarchy - superhumans at the top, humans and defects at the bottom. Welcome to an all-new military science fiction novel from critically-acclaimed author Shami Stovall. Clevon Demarco, a genetically modified human, has a cocksure attitude and the combat skills to back it up. With his unparalleled skills, he makes his living as a ruthless gunrunner on a shady space station near the edges of the quadrant. Stronger, faster, and wittier than most sad sacks, no one even comes close to Demarco's abilities - until he crosses paths with the captain of the notorious Star Marque, Endellion Voight. Captain Voight arrests Demarco and offers him a choice: go to a prison planet for his crimes, or join her starship, the Star Marque, working as mercenaries for the superhumans. But she didn't pick him at random. She has a plan to become a planet governor; a title no human has held since the superhumans won the war. It doesn't matter the cost - assassinations, extortion, blackmail - she's determined to claw her way to the top. All Captain Voight needs is Demarco's help to carry out her machinations, and she'll give him everything he's ever wanted in return. A fast-paced space opera for those who enjoy Old Man's War by John Scalzi, Revelation Space by Alastair Reynolds, or anything by Robert A. Heinlein. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Devante' Johnson. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/148166/bk_acx0_148166_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
