Narrenturm
Summary
Eigentlich ist das Ende der Zeiten schon lange gekommen. Im zweiten Monat des Jahres 1420 sollte es sein, an einem Montag nach dem Festtag der heiligen Scholastica, so jedenfalls hatten es die Chiliasten mit ihrer Lehre vom Tausendjährigen Reich prophezeit. Dafür geht es aber zwei Jahre später noch überaus munter zu auf unserer Erde, auch wenn das Morden, Sterben und Wehklagen aus der Perspektive des inquisitorischen Narrenturms schon wie der Kampf der Mächte des Bösen am Vortag des Jüngsten Gerichts erscheint. So jedenfalls erscheint es dem jungen Abenteurer und Medicus Reinmar von Bielau, der durch seine Wanderschaft auf der Flucht vor Verfolgern und der Suche nach der Liebe durch die mittelalterliche Landschaft streift. Durch seine Begegnungen und Erlebnisse entwirft der Erzähler vor dem Leser ein Panorama der Zeit, das nicht zuletzt auch auf überaus gekonnte Art und Weise mit den Versatzstücken des historischen, des Ritterromans und der Fantasy-Literatur zu spielen versteht!>> Diese ungekürzte Hörbuch-Fassung genießt du exklusiv nur bei Audible.

La spada del destino
Summary
Geralt di Rivia è uno strigo, un assassino di mostri. Ed è il migliore: solo lui può sopraffare un basilisco, sopravvivere a un incontro con una sirena, sgominare un'orda di goblin o portare un messaggio alla regina delle driadi, fiere guerriere dei boschi che uccidono chiunque si avventuri nel loro territorio... Geralt però non è un mercenario senza scrupoli, disposto a compiere qualsiasi atrocità dietro adeguato compenso: al pari dei cavalieri, ha un codice da rispettare. Ecco perché re Niedamir è sorpreso di vederlo tra i cacciatori da lui radunati per eliminare un drago grigio, un essere intoccabile per gli strighi. E, in effetti, Geralt è lì per un motivo ben diverso: ha infatti scoperto che il re ha convocato pure la maga Yennefer, l'unica donna che lui abbia mai amato. Lo strigo sarà dunque obbligato a fare una dolorosa scelta: difendere il drago e perdere Yennefer per sempre, o infrangere il codice degli strighi pur di riconquistare il suo cuore.

Survival Kit

When the dead prowl the streets of Oslo, survivors Kit and Shadia have to get out of there. They decide to go where the dead can’t follow - their family cabin on a remote island - but they have to fight their way out of the city first. Facing the dangers of this new world, both living and dead, is hard enough, but the couple also has to deal with Kit’s severe Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. It can throw a wrench into the simplest of plans, and Kit’s fear that the sickness may be the death of her seems more a reality for every day. Despite the odds stacked against them, Shadia and Kit are ready to fight for their survival and for each other.

The Agony of Victory
Summary
What makes some men drive themselves to succeed in their chosen sport, no matter how daunting the odds? And what are the struggles that victory almost inevitably brings? Meet the swiftest and saddest cyclist of his time, a man whose craving for speed was outstripped by a terrible urge toward self-annihilation. Try to understand the most accomplished high-school runner in American history, whose long-distance records still astound and who, a few years later, abruptly abandoned his wife and three small children. Learn about the briefly glorious life of the leading scorer in Division I college basketball, one of the inner city’s great success stories . . . while it lasted. This superbly narrated and insightful audiobook follows the paths of thirteen ravaged champions in solitary crafts such as cycling and running, bowling and boxing, hiking and golf. These men work at and master their sports, driven only by a burning need to prove themselves. Movingly detailed here are their painful journeys to grace, and their eventual realization that no victory brings lasting happiness. In short, here is the human experience, told in seconds and miles, scorecards and records.
