Visitor's Guide to the English Cotswolds: 3rd Edition 2015 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 173min
Planning a visit to the English Cotswolds? Welcome to the updated third edition of the Visitor's Guide to the English Cotswolds. The book was updated on April 9, 2015. The book has been expanded and now includes more destinations, sights, places to stay, pubs, and much more. So if you're planning a visit to the Cotswolds you'll find this guide to be a valuable resource. You'll find all of the information you need to plan your trip and make it a great success. The English Cotswolds are a chain of undulating, limestone foothills that encompass a quiet, idyllic world of sleepy little towns and villages nestled among the hills and dales. Rising to just over 1,000 feet at the highest point on Cleeve Hill, the Cotswolds are spread across a half-dozen West Midland counties, including Gloucestershire, Avon, Wiltshire, Hereford and Worcester and Oxfordshire. For more than 90 miles, from Meon Hill just six miles south of Stratford-Upon-Avon, they stretch westward across the heart of England all the way to the great Roman city Bath. For more than 1,000 years these pastoral, rolling hills have been home to farmers and shepherds and... well, to me. Please allow me to introduce you to my Cotswolds. Yes, we'll visit all the well-known and not-to-be-missed spots along the way, but I'll take you to places off the beaten path - places that very few visitors to the Cotswolds ever get to visit. Chipping Campden, Broadway, Stanton, Stanway, Snowshill, Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold, Naunton, Northleach, Chedworth, The Slaughters, Buckland, Winchcombe, Burford, Cirencester and Bath are just some of the towns we'll visit. Off the beaten path we'll visit the Duntisbournes villages, the tiny hamlet of Ford, the village of Bibury, and many more. There's an air of timelessness among these ancient hills, honey-colored towns, villages, and cottages. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jack Wynters.

Casting Mel and Marion: Porn Casting, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 25min, (USK 18)
Two for the price of one? I couldn't believe my luck! My phony adult movie auditions were getting better and better!The next audition was 19-year-old Mel - a typical porno wannabee with blonde hair, big tits, and a low IQ! Her married friend had come as a chaperone and said she had no intention of auditioning. One look at her hard body and sultry eyes made me determined to change her mind!Extract:“Who are you?” I asked the petite brunette brusquely.“I’m her best friend. Here to make sure she’s not taken advantage of!” The woman fired back in a well-educated but officious tone that annoyed me just a little. I looked her up and down; virtually undressing her with my eyes. The "best friend" was also a treat for the eyes and a delicious contrast to Mel. Around her mid-20s, sharply dressed in a business-like jacket that teased me with an undulating silk blouse underneath and a conservative skirt. Or at least a skirt that would be conservative if it wasn’t half way up her thighs. She was around five-feet-five, with green eyes and pouty lips; a trim, slender body and fit looking legs. An image of spinning the little madam on my big veiny c*ck filled my brain and I had to quickly blink it away. Oh, and best of all...she had a chunky gold ring on her wedding finger! The mystery friend was married.“Do you have a name?” I tried to seem disinterested.“Just Marian,” she answered.I sat back in my big leather chair and took the opportunity to glance at my computer screen to ensure all the cameras were working. “Well, Just Marian,” I smiled. “I don’t allow spectators at my auditions. If you want to stay, you audition too...!” ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Elliott Daniels. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/142441/bk_acx0_142441_sample.mp3.

The River War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 837min
The northeastern quarter of the continent of Africa is drained and watered by the Nile. Among and about the headstreams and tributaries of this mighty river lie the wide and fertile provinces of the Egyptian Soudan. Situated in the very centre of the land, these remote regions are on every side divided from the seas by 500 miles of mountain, swamp, or desert. The great river is their only means of growth, their only channel of progress. It is by the Nile alone that their commerce can reach the outer markets or European civilisation can penetrate the inner darkness. The Soudan is joined to Egypt by the Nile as a diver is connected with the surface by his air pipe. Without it there is only suffocation. Aut Nilus, aut nihil! The town of Khartoum, at the confluence of the Blue and White Niles, is the point on which the trade of the south must inevitably converge. It is the great spout through which the merchandise collected from a wide area streams northwards to the Mediterranean shore. It marks the extreme northern limit of the fertile Soudan. Between Khartoum and Assuan the river flows for 1,200 miles through deserts of surpassing desolation. At last the wilderness recedes, and the living world broadens out again into Egypt and the Delta. It is with events that have occurred in the intervening waste that this audiobook is concerned. The real Soudan, known to the statesman and the explorer, lies far to the south - moist, undulating, and exuberant. But there is another Soudan, which some mistake for the true, whose solitudes oppress the Nile from the Egyptian frontier to Omdurman. This is the Soudan of the soldier. Destitute of wealth or future, it is rich in history. The names of its squalid villages are familiar to distant and enlightened peoples. The barrenness of its scenery has been drawn by skilful pen and pencil. Its ample deserts have tasted the blood of brave men. Its hot, black rocks have witnessed famous traged ungekürzt.

Full Moon: Dark Guardian, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 369min
Chapter One "Supposedly, dreams reflect our hidden fears and secret desires, all clamoring for attention. The one I'd had last night had been so vivid that even now, as evening drew near, it still made me squirm in my chair. I sat against a wall in the counsel room where the elders and the Dark Guardians - protectors of our society - were discussing how best to ensure our survival. Because I hadn't yet experienced my first transformation, I was considered a novice and was not allowed to sit at the large, round table with the others. This was okay by me, because it gave me the freedom to let my mind wander - without anyone noticing that I wasn't paying attention. "In my dream, I'd been standing in a clearing with my declared mate, Connor, our arms wrapped around each other so tightly that we could barely breathe. The full moon served as a spotlight. "Then dark clouds drifted over the moon, and everything went black. Still holding him near, I was acutely aware of the muscles and bones in his body undulating against me. He grew taller and broader. My fingers were in his hair, and I felt the strands thicken and lengthen. His mouth covered mine, but his lips were fuller than before. The kiss was hungrier than any he'd ever given me. It heated me from head to toe, and I thought I knew what it was to be a candle, melting from the scorching flame. I knew I should move away, but I clung to him as though I'd drown in a sea of doubts if I let go. "The hovering clouds floated away, and the moonlight illuminated us once again - only I was no longer in Connor's arms. Instead I was pressing my body against Rafe's, kissing him, yearning for his touch.... "I shifted uncomfortably in my chair with the memory of how desperately I'd wanted Rafe. It was Connor I was supposed to long for. But I'd woken up in a tangle of sheets, clamoring for another of Rafe's touches - even if it were only in a dream. "Squirming again, I felt a sha ungekürzt.

Through Screaming Whispers
PROLOGUE This brutally honest Anthology relays the harrowing account of a slow and painful recollection of childhood torture suffered at the hands of sexual predators. Trek through 6 years of undulating hell towards the light of change. Through the ravages of Complex Post Traumatic Disorder (C-PTSD), Extreme Anxiety and Depressive Disorders, you will get an insight into the workings of a broken mind, where trauma is unsure if it is present or past. You will skirt the walls of tunnels within a mind of terror and a viewpoint of a toddler and emerge into the light, where change can begin. A tiny little girl awaits through screaming whispers cast onto dark walls with no ears. This collective is also an insight into the current mental health crisis and care in the midst of what seems to be a pandemic of Lost Youth. REVIEW In this book, the author invites us into their inner world, into what it feels like to go through trauma. Joelle Johnson does this in a very artistic, skilful, and insightful way. She is mastering the art of expression without exposing the reader to each detail of the trauma itself. The author has chosen to voice their trauma in the form of poetry that is revealing the intention that gives birth to clear words. Words that are no longer suppressed in the silence and pain that was caused in the past. This book is an act of balance, offering us to connect with the multi-facets of trauma and its phenomena, being drawn into the pain of terror as well as the tiny glimmer of hope. There is a way out, or should I say a way to live with it or without. The author describes the many attempts and ways to understand their trauma, its echoing and rippling impact in their life in each second. However, the search inside, outside and the discoveries within this, is ongoing work. Hearing stories from our peers can be very inspiring and helpful. It is encouraging, normalising, and acknowledging what individuals go through if they have experienced complex trauma. "This is a cupcake version", the author says because her "set of traumas are so deep that it is not wise to share with non-professionals". And therefore, she makes it accessible to the reader who might have experienced this type of trauma, or who might be a friend of someone who has gone through this. She articulates trauma in a creative way and creates an alignment between the victims of trauma. It also reveals not only the face, impact, and effect of trauma on someone's life, it also reveals its ever presence. Joelle Johnson has carefully chosen a collection of poems to protect the reader "a cupcake version". If this book is a "cupcake version" you can only imagine what the cake might look like.

II:For Mankind
Dramatischster Doom, zwischen klösterlicher Kontemplation, titanischen Riffs, esoterischen Solos und irgendwie auch Doomloungejazz. In this age of instant gratification and 'artist accessibility' via social media and the internet at large, it must be said that some of our favourite bands are those who still manage to maintain an air of mystery, intentional or not. Of course this has to be backed up by incredible music, perhaps even more so if every other aspect of a band or artist is hiding in the shadows..... Whether this obtuseness is by design or flaw matters not when it comes to the Newport-based Haast's Eagled. The simple fact is that 'II: For Mankind' is 4 tracks (clocking in near to 1 hour) of some of the most imaginative, plaintive, acerbic and kaleidoscopic doom we have had the pleasure of hearing. Undulating between monastic contemplation, soaring vocals, titanic riffing, esoteric solos and even exquisitely tasteful doomloungejazz, this is less 'a journey' and more a perfectly executed mission of sound. Of course this is not easy first-time listening, none of the best albums are. However, what we have in our hands here is an album that should go on to be a cult-classic of the underground doom/stoner scene.- Shop: odax
