    The Autism War: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 660min
    Tony Colletti, a good suburban cop and father of a child with autism, finds himself drawn into the controversy over the apparent but rarely acknowledged connection between childhood vaccines and autism. His quest to uncover the truth forces him to risk all he holds dear while confronting corrupt government officials, the powerful pharmaceutical industry, and disturbing elements of his own past. Even while holding down his job and dealing with family crises, Colletti spearheads the drive to contend with industrial espionage, Russian gangsters, and sexual predators preying upon disabled children. He and his colleagues face powerful government and private factions that manipulate the media, fabricate scientific research, conduct shadowy judicial proceedings, and viciously attack those who question vaccine safety.In this gripping novel, government and industry have formed an unholy alliance that places profit ahead of children’s health, one that compels ordinary Americans to fight back to protect their families and the ideals of justice. In the tradition of Ibsen’s An Enemy of the People and echoing the infamous Minamata, Japan, mercury poisoning tragedy, The Autism War reminds us how a handful of dedicated citizens armed with convincing evidence can prevail over a complacent majority and overwhelming odds. ungekürzt.

    Red Means Go: The Story About My Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 374min
    Red Means Go is the amazing story of a young woman, Joanne Balducci from Bayside, Queens. The oldest among her four siblings, all boys except her, she learns at an early age to handle responsibility and be a strong leader against all odds and ill will. Falling in love with a neighborhood young man, their love affair takes us to the Bronx, to Island Park, and Long Beach by the Atlantic Ocean. Never complacent with the easy-to-reach low-hanging fruit, the Almighty blesses her with plenty of brainpower, gumption, and resolve, and she overcomes all difficulties piled upon her delicate shoulders. From a large Italian family, she has plenty of relatives, some good, some are devil incarnates. She presents us in fine-tuned details the struggle to become a licensed professional, a mother of two, a singer, a college comptroller, and at the end, a lovable school bus driver and a Florida professor. Deep introspection and sharp dialogue open the inner world of a woman who on a shoestring budget becomes a success in the world of greedy men and gossiping school administrators. An immensely enjoyable listen that will stay with the listener and will restore his or her faith in the goodness of mankind. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Miranda West.

    Blood Numbers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 684min
    There are only two kinds of people left on the earth: Donors and Recipients.  Sixteen-year-old Aston Vazeto hates the idea of selling her blood for money and is determined to be the first Donor in New World history to never donate. But after a suspicious accident at her father's power plant leaves her family diving deeper into poverty, Aston has no other choice except to enter the annual blood auctions, where Recipients bid on the richest blood. With the highest test results ever seen, Aston's blood becomes the most sought-after in history, and will likely bring a large price at auctions. When her friends are caught tampering with their donations, they are arrested and tortured. Knowing she puts her family's safety and income at risk, Aston takes advantage of an opportunity to escape donation facility drugs meant to keep Donors complacent. Free to feel and free to love, she is caught between Gannet, a kind facility technician, and Marcus, a sarcastic rebel like herself. Dancing at Blood Auction Balls and kissing a donor in coat closets under the stairs has Aston confused between joining the uprising she hears rumors about or merely following the life her blood was meant to lead. ungekürzt.

    World of Shell and Bone, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 420min
    In a world ravaged by a nuclear holocaust, Vika Cannon knows there are no guarantees: No guarantees of safety, no guarantees that your neighbor is not actually a spy for the government, and no guarantees you'll be allowed to emigrate to a new life in China. New Amana is dying. Food and water are scarce, and people suffering from radiation-caused mutations - the Nukehead - are the new class of homeless. Vika has just one purpose: to produce healthy progeny using a Husband assigned by the Match Clinic. Unhealthy children are carted away to Asylums to be experimented on, just as Vika's little sister Ceres was, eight years ago. Parents incapable of producing healthy progeny are put to death in gas chambers. When she's assigned a Husband shortly after her twentieth birthday, Vika expects him to be complacent and obedient. But Shale Underwood has a secret. He is a member of the Radicals, the terrorist group intent on overthrowing the government. And Shale has information about Ceres. As she learns more about the Rads's plan, Vika finds herself drawn to Shale in ways she'd never imagined. When freedom calls in the way of a healthy pregnancy, will she betray her government and risk death for Shale and Ceres? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christina Kelley.

    Martyr of the Catacombs , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 226min
    True Christians have been persecuted throughout the Church Age, and in some parts of the world continue in great trials. But the Savior is always there providing comfort and strength. No marvel, for Christ warned his followers that this would happen. Here, in Martyr of the Catacombs, we get a glimpse of the heinous persecutions in Ancient Rome and look inside the lives of those Christians whose very lives depended upon the place of refuge beneath the city of Rome. Apprehending Truth presents this Christian classic as a reminder that some remain in harm’s way, and a sober warning to the complacent church of the 21st century, persecution of the real Church is an ever increasing possibility. "These are they which came out of great tribulation And have washed their robes And made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God And serve him day and night in his temple; And He that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more; neither thirst any more; Neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat; For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, And shall lead them unto living fountains of waters, And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes." ungekürzt.

    The Farm (eBook, ePUB)
    The flame that burns the brightest burns the quickest, they say, and Ana Reed planned to burn brightly for eternity. She had no plans to grow complacent and cold in her pursuit of justice for the children she served through her position as a social service worker. Ana held the sands of time in the palm of her hand, and she planned to clear the path for the broken children she swore to protect. Her gift would be their salvation.However, mankind had a different plan. Greed, cruelty, and lust for power led them to their own destruction. The once-free people were now confined by the immortals, who had to step in to save them from themselves. The immortals constructed great farms to house the elite few, handpicked to carry on the human race. Time erased all memories of freedom for the humans. All that remained was a sense of duty to the immortals.This unnatural environment was the last place Ana thought she would find her soul mate, yet she did. Marked with a number and a sense of obligation, James did as he was told and provided sustenance for the immortals. He knew nothing of the world outside the boundaries of the farm. His Ana was the only link to the outside world, and he loved the freedom her stories brought him.Many adventures filled the long life of Ana and her family and friends, but nothing could have prepared her for the future fate had in store for her. She had never dreamed anything like this was even possible. Her original goal in life was to be realized with the help of the love of her life.

    Crouching Tiger: What China's Militarism Means for the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 609min
    Will there be war with China? This book provides the most complete and accurate assessment of the probability of conflict between the United States and the rising Asian superpower. Equally important, it lays out an in-depth analysis of the possible pathways to peace. Written like a geopolitical detective story, the narrative encourages listener interaction by starting each chapter with an intriguing question that often challenges conventional wisdom. Based on interviews with more than 30 top experts, the author highlights a number of disturbing facts about China's recent military buildup and the shifting balance of power in Asia: the Chinese are deploying game-changing "carrier killer" ballistic missiles; some of America's supposed allies in Europe and Asia are selling highly lethal weapons systems to China in a perverse twist on globalization; and, on the US side, debilitating cutbacks in the military budget send a message to the world that America is not serious about its "pivot to Asia". In the face of these threatening developments, the book stresses the importance of maintaining US military strength and preparedness and strengthening alliances, while warning against a complacent optimism that relies on economic engagement, negotiations, and nuclear deterrence to ensure peace. Accessible to listeners from all walks of life, this multidisciplinary work blends geopolitics, economics, history, international relations, military doctrine, and political science to provide a better understanding of one of the most vexing problems facing the world. Cover design by Jacqueline Nasso Cooke. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stephen McLaughlin. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/028979/bk_adbl_028979_sample.mp3.
