Title: The Other Side of Mrs. Wood: A Novel Author: Lucy Barker Narrator: Tracy-Ann Oberman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 8 minutes Release date: June 27, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: For fans of The Lost Apothecary or the Mermaid and Mrs Hancock, a deliciously atmospheric historical novel about the rivalry between two female mediums during Victorian London’s obsession with Spiritualism. Mrs. Violet Wood is London’s premier medium, a woman of supreme ambition whose unique abilities have earned her the admiration and trust of London’s elite. Mrs. Wood is indeed a clever and gifted seer—her skill is unmatched in predicting exactly what her wealthy patrons want to hear from the beyond. But times are changing. First, a nosey newspaperman has begun working to expose false mediums across London. Many of Mrs. Wood’s friends—and, yes, some of her foes—have fallen to his merciless accusations. Worse yet, though Mrs. Wood’s monthly séance tables are still packed, she’s noticed that it’s been harder to snare coveted new patrons. There are rumors from America of mediums materializing full spirits. . . . How long will her audiences be content with quivering tables and candle theatrics? Then, at one of Mrs Wood’s routine gatherings, she hears that most horrifying of sounds—a yawn. When a sweet girl with an uncanny talent for the craft turns up at her door, Mrs. Wood decides that a protégé will be just the thing to spice up her brand. But is Emmie Finch indeed the naïve ingenue she appears? Or has Mrs. Wood’s own downfall come knocking at last?

Title: Swann's War Author: Michael B. Oren Narrator: Nicol Zanzarella Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 52 minutes Release date: December 27, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A thrilling literary fiction whodunit for fans of Delia Owens and Jacqueline Winspear World War II is raging overseas, but life remains painfully quiet on the rugged New England fishing island of Fourth Cliff. With most of its able-bodied male inhabitants away in the service, the island is now home only to aged fishermen, concerned women and children, and second-rate soldiers guarding a low-priority military emplacement and camp for Italian POWs. With her husband Archie, Fourth Cliff's beloved police captain, off fighting in the Marines, Mary Beth Swann steps into his role. Though a cop herself, she has to fight for the respect of Fourth Cliff's hardscrabble residents. And that's before a murdered POW surfaces in a fisherman's net, followed by more bodies. Determined to find the killer, Swann must rely only on the help of a simple-minded deputy, a disgraced doctor, and a mob-connected mainlander to prove her worth to Fourth Cliff—and to herself. In the tradition of Where the Crawdads Sing and the BBC's Foyle's War, Michael Oren's novel seizes the listener and doesn't let go until the very end. Michael B.

Title: [German] - Aufzeichnungen eines Irren: Erzählung von Nikolai Wassiljewitsch Gogol Author: Nikolai Wassiljewitsch Gogol Narrator: Werner Wilkening Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 3 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Aufzeichnungen eines Irren / Erzählung von Nikolai Wassiljewitsch Gogol, gelesen von Werner Wilkening. Es ist die merkwürdige Geschichte des Titularrats Aksenti Iwanow Poprischtschin. Er ist ein kleiner, boshafter Beamter im Staatsdienst. Sein grauer Alltag lässt ihn jedoch zunehmend immer unglücklicher werden, sein Beruf ödet ihn an, unter seinem Chef und unter seiner Bedeutungslosigkeit leidet er. Hoffnungslos verliebt er sich in die Tochter seines Vorgesetzten und flieht schon bald in eine teuflische Scheinwelt. Der zu Beginn der Erzählung erlebte Eindruck eines gesunden Menschen wandelt sich zusehends in das Bild eines hoffnungslosen Phantasten und Verrückten. Während in seinen anfänglichen Phantastereien lediglich sprechende Hunde vorkommen, fällt der Protagonist im weiteren Verlauf seiner Krankheit in immer stärkere Wahnvorstellungen. Er liest in der Zeitung vom Tod des spanischen Königs Ferdinand VII., der ohne männlichen Thronfolger verstorben war, und verfällt in den Glauben, er selbst wäre der nächste spanische König. Zum Scheitern verurteilt, befindet er sich schließlich in einer ausweglosen Situation… Übersetzung aus dem Russischen: Alexander Eliasberg. Coverabbildung: unter Verwendung einer Kreidezeichnung (Ausschnitt) von Franz Karl Bühler: Selbstportrait (1919) aus der Sammlung: C. Prinzhorn Kollektion, Universitätshospital Heidelberg. Schlussmusik: Allegretto Tranquillo (Nr. 9) von Sergei Prokofjew. Coverschrift gesetzt aus der Elegant Typewriter. Der Sprecher: Werner Wilkening ist ein gestandener Sprecher mit weit mehr als 25 Jahren Erfahrung - nicht nur vor dem Mikrofon. Er bringt einiges an Bühnenerfahrung mit, ist oft in Film/Funk & Fernsehen aufgetreten und ist nun auch mit seiner unverkennbaren Stimme in zahllosen Hörbüchern des Verlages hoerbuchedition words and music zu erleben, zum Beispiel mit einer Auswahl der 'Lustigen Geschichten' von Anton Tschechow und bisher zwei Erzählungen von Nikolai W. Gogol 'Die Nase' und 'Die Geschichte vom großen Krakeel zwischen Iwan Iwanowitsch und Iwan Nikiforowitsch'. Mit den 'Aufzeichnungen eines Wahnsinnigen' liefert er nun eine weitere Kostprobe als kongenialer Gogol-Interpret.

Title: The Buccaneers: A Novel Author: Marion Mainwaring, Edith Wharton Narrator: Carol Monda Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 57 minutes Release date: November 15, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Edith Wharton's spellbinding final novel tells a story of love in the gilded age that crosses the boundaries of society—now an original series on AppleTV+! “Brave, lively, engaging...a fairy-tale novel, miraculouly returned to life.”—The New York Times Book Review Set in the 1870s, the same period as Wharton's The Age of Innocence, The Buccaneers is about five wealthy American girls denied entry into New York Society because their parents' money is too new. At the suggestion of their clever governess, the girls sail to London, where they marry lords, earls, and dukes who find their beauty charming—and their wealth extremely useful. After Wharton's death in 1937, The Christian Science Monitor said, 'If it could have been completed, The Buccaneers would doubtless stand among the richest and most sophisticated of Wharton's novels.' Now, with wit and imagination, Marion Mainwaring has finished the story, taking her cue from Wharton's own synopsis. It is a novel any Wharton fan will celebrate and any romantic reader will love. This is the richly engaging story of Nan St. George and Guy Thwarte, an American heiress and an English aristocrat, whose love breaks the rules of both their societies.

Title: The Secrets of Hartwood Hall: The mysterious and atmospheric gothic novel for fans of Stacey Hall Author: Katie Lumsden Narrator: Olivia Vinall Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 54 minutes Release date: March 30, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. It's 1852 and Margaret Lennox, a young widow, is offered a position as governess at Hartwood Hall. She quickly accepts, hoping this isolated country house will allow her to leave her past behind. Cut off from the village, Margaret soon starts to feel there's something odd about her new home, despite her growing fondness for her bright, affectionate pupil, Louis. There are strange figures in the dark, tensions between servants and an abandoned east wing.

Title: House of Odysseus Author: Claire North Narrator: Catrin Walker-Booth Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 13 minutes Release date: August 22, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: This "powerful, fresh, and unflinching" reimagining from the award-winning author of the Penelope trilogy breathes life into ancient myth and gives voice to the women who stand defiant in a world ruled by ruthless men (Jennifer Saint). On the isle of Ithaca, queen Penelope maintains a delicate balance of power. Many years ago, her husband Odysseus sailed to war with Troy and never came home. In his absence, Penelope uses all her cunning to keep the peace—a peace that is shattered by the return of Orestes, King of Mycenae, and his sister Elektra. Orestes' hands are stained with his mother's blood. Not so long ago, the son of Agamemnon took Queen Clytemnestra's life on Ithaca's sands. Now, wracked with guilt, he is slowly losing his mind. But a king cannot be seen to be weak, and Elektra has brought him to Ithaca to keep him safe from the ambitious men of Mycenae. Penelope knows destruction will follow in his wake as surely as the furies circle him. His uncle Menelaus, the battle-hungry king of Sparta, longs for Orestes' throne—and if he can seize it, no one will be safe from his violent whims. Trapped between two mad kings, Penelope fights to keep her home from being crushed by a war that stretches from Mycenae and Sparta to the summit of Mount Olympus itself. Her only allies are Elektra, desperate to protect her brother, and Helen of Troy, Menelaus' wife. And watching over them all is the goddess Aphrodite, who has plans of her own. Each woman has a secret. And their secrets will shape the world.

Title: Seraphina's Song Author: Kathryn Gauci Narrator: Claire Bloom, Stefan Rudnicki Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 9 minutes Release date: June 7, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “If I knew then, dear reader, what I know now, I should have turned on my heels and left. But no, instead, I stood there transfixed on the beautiful image of Seraphina. In that moment my fate was sealed.” Dionysos Mavroulis is a man without a future: a man who embraces destiny and risks everything for love. A refugee from Asia Minor, he escapes Smyrna in 1922 disguised as an old woman. Alienated and plagued by feelings of remorse, he spirals into poverty and seeks solace in the hashish dens around Piraeus. Hitting rock bottom, he meets Aleko, an accomplished bouzouki player. Recognizing in the impoverished refugee a rare musical talent, Aleko offers to teach him the bouzouki. Dionysos’s hope for the future is further fueled when he meets Seraphina—the singer with the voice of a nightingale—at Papazoglou’s Taverna. From the moment he lays eyes on her, his fate is sealed. Set in Piraeus in the 1920’s and 30’s, Seraphina’s Song is a haunting and compelling story of hope and despair, and of a love stronger than death. “Cine noir meets Greek tragedy, played out with a Depression era realism.”—Discovering Diamonds Kathryn Gauci Tue, 07 Jun 2022 08:28:02 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622394 thebookvoice.com 4:9:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622394]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Praying with the Enemy Author: Steven T. Collis Narrator: Traber Burns Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 42 minutes Release date: June 7, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Based on the true story of an American POW during the Korean War and a North Korean soldier who become unlikely allies united in their shared faith in God during a daring escape to freedom  When his jet malfunctions, Captain Ward Millar makes a last-second decision to eject over enemy territory in North Korea before his plane explodes. His parachute barely opens before impact, saving his life, but the hard landing snaps both of his ankles. Unable to walk, Captain Millar is easily captured by North Korean and Chinese soldiers. His captors interrogate, threaten, and starve him in an attempt to extract strategic wartime information. He stalls the inevitable by feeding the enemy false information, but it’s only a matter of time before they discover his lies. Millar plots a bold, seemingly impossible plan to escape. He knows it will take a miracle to pull it off, but he’s not sure if praying to a higher power would even work. He wishes he had faith like his wife, whose firm belief in God can move mountains. When Barbara Millar receives a telegram informing her that her husband is missing in action behind enemy lines, her family and friends accept the grim reality that Ward is almost certainly dead. Yet Barbara, a woman of deep and sustaining faith, refuses to believe it. She still feels his presence and their connection as strongly as ever. She is certain her husband will return, but she doesn’t know how the war and his ordeal might have changed him. North Korean soldier Kim Jae Pil was raised to believe in the power of prayer, but because the Communist Party kills or imprisons any religious group they perceive as a threat to their power and influence, Kim and his family must keep their Christian faith secret. He has been anxious to return to his family and then escape across the border to South Korea. With Millar still imprisoned and unable to walk, and the North Korean army becoming increasingly suspicious of Kim’s actions, it seems impossible that either man will find the freedom they so desperately desire. But when these wartime foes cross paths, they find in each other an unlikely ally. Despite speaking different languages, Millar and Kim find common ground in their fragile faith and must rely on each other to undertake a daring escape. Praying with the Enemy is a story of courage, determination, unlikely friendship, and enduring faith. Steven T.

With Millar still imprisoned and unable to walk, and the North Korean army becoming increasingly suspicious of Kim’s actions, it seems impossible that either man will find the freedom they so desperately desire. But when these wartime foes cross paths, they find in each other an unlikely ally. Despite speaking different languages, Millar and Kim find common ground in their fragile faith and must rely on each other to undertake a daring escape. Praying with the Enemy is a story of courage, determination, unlikely friendship, and enduring faith. Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622388]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: Praying with the Enemy Author: Steven T. Collis Narrator: Traber Burns Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 42 minutes Release date: June 7, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Based on the true story of an American POW during the Korean War and a North Korean soldier who become unlikely allies united in their shared faith in God during a daring escape to freedom  When his jet malfunctions, Captain Ward Millar makes a last-second decision to eject over enemy territory in North Korea before his plane explodes. His parachute barely opens before impact, saving his life, but the hard landing snaps both of his ankles. Unable to walk, Captain Millar is easily captured by North Korean and Chinese soldiers. His captors interrogate, threaten, and starve him in an attempt to extract strategic wartime information. He stalls the inevitable by feeding the enemy false information, but it’s only a matter of time before they discover his lies. Millar plots a bold, seemingly impossible plan to escape. He knows it will take a miracle to pull it off, but he’s not sure if praying to a higher power would even work. He wishes he had faith like his wife, whose firm belief in God can move mountains. When Barbara Millar receives a telegram informing her that her husband is missing in action behind enemy lines, her family and friends accept the grim reality that Ward is almost certainly dead. Yet Barbara, a woman of deep and sustaining faith, refuses to believe it. She still feels his presence and their connection as strongly as ever. She is certain her husband will return, but she doesn’t know how the war and his ordeal might have changed him. North Korean soldier Kim Jae Pil was raised to believe in the power of prayer, but because the Communist Party kills or imprisons any religious group they perceive as a threat to their power and influence, Kim and his family must keep their Christian faith secret.

Sir Percy Blakeney leads a double life: apparently nothing more than a wealthy fop but in reality a formidable swordsman and a quick-thinking escape artist. The band of gentlemen who assist him are the only ones who know his secret identity. He is known by his symbol, a simple flower, the scarlet pimpernel. Opening at the New Theatre in London's West End on January 5, 1905, the play became a favorite of British audiences, eventually playing more than 2,000 performances. Baroness Emma Orczy, usually known as Baroness Orczy or to her family and friends as Emmuska Orczy, was a Hungarian-born British novelist and playwright. A true audiobook treasure!

All her life, Zofia has found comfort in two things during times of hardship: books and her best friend, Janina. But no one could have imagined the horrors of the Nazi occupation in Warsaw. As the bombs rain down and Hitler’s forces loot and destroy the city, Zofia finds that now books are also in need of saving.

Title: The Vienna Writers Circle Author: J. C. Maetis Narrator: Michael Crouch, Charles Constant Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 24 minutes Release date: February 14, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A gripping and powerful tale of resilience and courage set in Vienna on the brink of WWII, as two members of Freud’s Circle try to keep themselves and their loved ones safe as the SS closes in. Spring, 1938: Café Mozart in the heart of Vienna is beloved by its clientele, including cousins Mathias Kraemer and Johannes Namal. The two writers are as close as brothers. They are also members of Freud’s Circle—a unique group of the famed psychiatrist’s friends and acquaintances who once gathered regularly at the bright and airy café to talk about books and ideas over coffee and pastries. But dark days are looming. With Hitler’s annexation of Austria, Nazi edicts governing daily life become stricter and more punitive. Now Hitler has demanded that the “hidden Jews” of Vienna be tracked down, and Freud’s Circle has been targeted. The SS aims to use old group photos to identify Jewish intellectuals and subversives. With the vise tightening around them, Mathias and Johannes’s only option appears to be hiding in plain sight, using assumed names and identities to evade detection, aware that discovery would mean consignment to a camp or execution. Faced with stark and desperate choices, Mathias, Johannes, their families and friends all find their loyalties and courage tested in unimaginable ways. But despite betrayal, heartache and imprisonment, hope remains, and with it, the determination to keep those they love alive, and Mathias and Johannes at the same time discovering that what originally condemned them—their writing—might also be their salvation.

Title: Radical Love Author: Neil Blackmore Narrator: Anthony Howell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 23 minutes Release date: June 1, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. Welcome to England, 1809. London is a violent, intolerant city, exhausted by years of war, beset by soaring prices and political tensions. By day, John Church preaches on the radical possibilities of love to a multicultural, working-class congregation in Southwark. But by night, he crosses the river to the secret and glamorous world of a gay molly house on Vere Street, where ordinary men reinvent themselves as funny, flirtatious drag queens and rent boys cavort with labourers and princes alike. There, Church becomes the first minister to offer marriages between men, at enormous risk. Everything changes when Church meets the unworldly and free-thinking Ned, part of a group of African activist abolitionists who attend his chapel. The two bond over their broken childhoods, and Church falls obsessively in love with Ned's tender nature. In a fragile, colourful secret world under threat, Church's love for Ned takes him to the edge of reason. Based on the incredible true story of one of the most important events in queer history, Radical Love is a sensuous and prescient story about gender and sexuality, and how the most vulnerable survive in dangerous times. ©2023 Neil Blackmore (P)2023 Penguin Audio Neil Blackmore Thu, 01 Jun 2023 08:28:02 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/621923 thebookvoice.com 10:23:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/621923]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Dragon’s Teeth Series: #3 of The Lanny Budd Novels Author: Upton Sinclair Narrator: Bronson Pinchot Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 23 hours 46 minutes Release date: May 31, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: An American in Germany fights against the rising tide of Nazi terror in this monumental saga of twentieth-century world history. In the wake of the 1929 stock market crash, Lanny Budd’s financial acumen and his marriage into great wealth enable him to continue the lifestyle he has always enjoyed. But the devastation the collapse has wrought on ordinary citizens has only strengthened Lanny’s socialist ideals—much to the chagrin of his heiress wife, Irma, a confirmed capitalist. In Germany to visit relatives, Lanny encounters a disturbing atmosphere of hatred and jingoism. His concern over the growing popularity of the Nazi Party escalates when he meets Adolf Hitler, the group’s fanatical leader, and the members of his inner circle. But Lanny’s gravest fear is the threat a national socialist government poses to the German Jewish family of Hansi, the musician husband of Lanny’s sister, Bess—a threat that will impel the international art dealer to risk his wealth, his future, even his life, in a courageous attempt to rescue his loved ones from a terrible fate. Winner of the 1943 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, Dragon’s Teeth brilliantly captures the nightmarish march toward the Second World War. An astonishing mix of history, adventure, and romance, the Lanny Budd Novels are a testament to the breathtaking scope of Upton Sinclair’s vision and his singular talents as a storyteller.

A friendship that transcends an era of mistrust, and fear, long after the wars have ended. Aspasia and Saniye are friends from childhood. They share their secrets and joy, helping each other in times of trouble. When WWI breaks, the news travels to the village, but the locals have no idea how it will affect their lives. When the war ends the Greeks come to the village, causing havoc, burning houses, and shooting Turks. The residents regard each other with suspicion. Their world has turned upside down, but some of the old friendships survive, despite the odds.

Title: 1812: The Rivers of War Series: #1 of Trail of Glory Author: Eric Flint Narrator: Franklin Pierson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 22 hours 29 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: In this alternate history of the American frontier and the Jacksonian era, a small change takes place in the Battle of the Horseshoe Bend during the War of 1812. What results is a cascade of new developments that becomes an avalanche. In our world, Ensign Sam Houston, just turned 21, led the charge on the creek barricade in that battle and almost died from a terrible wound that took him a year to recover from. In this world, his wound is minor, so he is able to continue fighting the British—and develop his close relationship with Andrew Jackson much sooner. Along with a radical Scots-Irish immigrant in the U.S. Army, Patrick Driscoll—one of “the Men of ’98”—Houston organizes a defense of the U.S. Capitol that prevents the British from destroying it and makes him a national hero. He and Driscoll then play a central role in the defense of New Orleans under Jackson’s command.

Title: 1812: The Rivers of War Series: #1 of Trail of Glory Author: Eric Flint Narrator: Franklin Pierson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 22 hours 29 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: In this alternate history of the American frontier and the Jacksonian era, a small change takes place in the Battle of the Horseshoe Bend during the War of 1812. What results is a cascade of new developments that becomes an avalanche. In our world, Ensign Sam Houston, just turned 21, led the charge on the creek barricade in that battle and almost died from a terrible wound that took him a year to recover from. In this world, his wound is minor, so he is able to continue fighting the British—and develop his close relationship with Andrew Jackson much sooner. Along with a radical Scots-Irish immigrant in the U.S. Army, Patrick Driscoll—one of “the Men of ’98”—Houston organizes a defense of the U.S. Capitol that prevents the British from destroying it and makes him a national hero. He and Driscoll then play a central role in the defense of New Orleans under Jackson’s command. They change the course of that battle in ways that will, over time, transform the relationship between the United States, the Indian tribes of the south, and the slaves brought over from Africa.

Title: The Tiffany Girls: A Novel Author: Shelley Noble Narrator: Caroline Hewitt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 55 minutes Release date: May 9, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 3 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: New York Times bestselling author Shelley Noble wows with a gripping historical novel about the real-life “Tiffany Girls,” a fascinating and largely unknown group of women artists behind Tiffany’s most legendary glassworks. It’s 1899, and Manhattan is abuzz. Louis Comfort Tiffany, famous for his stained-glass windows, is planning a unique installation at the Paris World’s Fair, the largest in history. At their fifth-floor studio on Fourth Avenue, the artists of the Women’s Division of the Tiffany Glass Company are already working longer shifts to finish the pieces that Tiffany hopes will prove that he is the world’s finest artist in glass. Known as the “Tiffany Girls,” these women are responsible for much of the design and construction of Tiffany’s extraordinary glassworks, but none receive credit. Emilie Pascal, daughter of an art forger, has been shunned in Paris art circles after the unmasking of her abusive father. Wanting nothing more than a chance to start a new life, she forges a letter of recommendation in hopes of fulfilling her destiny as an artist in the one place where she will finally be free to live her own life. Grace Griffith is the best copyist in the studio, spending her days cutting glass into floral borders for Tiffany’s religious stained-glass windows. But none of her coworkers know her secret: she is living a double life as a political cartoonist under the pseudonym of G.L. Griffith—hiding her identity as a woman. As manager of the women’s division, Clara Driscoll is responsible for keeping everything on schedule and within budget. But in the lead-up to the most important exhibition of her career, not only are her girls becoming increasingly difficult to wrangle, she finds herself obsessed with a new design: a dragonfly lamp that she has no idea will one day become Tiffany’s signature piece. Brought together by chance, driven by their desire to be artists in one of the only ways acceptable for women in their time, these “Tiffany Girls” will break the glass ceiling of their era and for working women to come.  This historical fiction novel set in the Gilded Age of New York City is a perfect gift for any woman interested in art, history, or strong women breaking the glass ceiling of their era.

Title: After Anne: A Novel of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Life Author: Logan Steiner Narrator: Tavia Gilbert Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 45 minutes Release date: May 30, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: USA TODAY BESTSELLER A stunning and unexpected portrait of Lucy Maud Montgomery, creator of one of literature’s most prized heroines, whose personal demons were at odds with her most enduring legacy—the irrepressible Anne of Green Gables. “Dear old world,” she murmured, “you are very lovely, and I am glad to be alive in you.” —L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables, 1908 As a young woman, Maud had dreams bigger than the whole of Prince Edward Island. Her exuberant spirit had always drawn frowns from her grandmother and their neighbors, but she knew she was meant to create, to capture and share the way she saw the world. And the young girl in Maud’s mind became more and more persistent: Here is my story, she said. Here is how my name should be spelled—Anne with an “e.” But the day Maud writes the first lines of Anne of Green Gables, she gets a visit from the handsome new minister in town, and soon faces a decision: forge her own path as a spinster authoress, or live as a rural minister’s wife, an existence she once called ''a synonym for respectable slavery.'' The choice she makes alters the course of her life. With a husband whose religious mania threatens their health and happiness at every turn, the secret darkness that Maud herself holds inside threatens to break through the persona she shows to the world, driving an ever-widening wedge between her public face and private self, and putting her on a path towards a heartbreaking end. Beautiful and moving, After Anne reveals Maud’s hidden personal challenges while celebrating what was timeless about her life and art—the importance of tenacity and the peaceful refuge found in imagination.

Title: Margot: A Novel Author: Wendell Steavenson Narrator: Karissa Vacker Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 12 minutes Release date: January 24, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A moving portrait of a young woman's struggle to break free of her upper-class upbringing amid the whirlwind years of the sexual revolution. It's the mid-1950s and Margot Thornsen is growing up between a Park Avenue apartment in New York and her family's sumptuous Oyster Bay estate as the presumed heir to her late grandfather's steel fortune. Her domineering mother has charted a course for her—to forego education and marry well—but Margot is more interested in microscopes and beetles and books. When a devastating fire brings the family legacy crashing down and the sexual revolution dawns, a new path opens up—the expansive world of late-1960s Radcliffe College and the intellectual, cultural, and sexual freedom Margot has been reaching for. Hailed for her 'intelligent and heartfelt fiction' (Kirkus Reviews), Wendell Steavenson writes with grace, precision, and great psychological perception. With Margot, she has crafted a vivid portrayal of the quiet torment of young women of its era, a comically caustic mother-daughter story, and a memorable evocation of one woman's passion for the wonder of science.

Title: The Secrets We Keep Author: Theresa Howes Narrator: Emma Spurgin Hussey Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 11 minutes Release date: November 10, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: ‘Truly gripping… I loved it.’ Jill Mansell, Sunday Times bestseller A heartbreakingly beautiful novel which captures the endurance and strength of ordinary people in the darkest of times, and the courage of one woman who put her life on the line to join the resistance. Perfect for fans of The Nightingale and The Secret Messenger. 1944, the Cote d’Azur. Artist Marguerite Segal is recruited by British Intelligence into befriending Etienne Valade, a local priest. Her mission is to persuade him to pass on information from the high-ranking German officers who attend his church: evidence of their war crimes. Connected by a passion for art, Marguerite and Etienne soon fall in love, but their association increasingly puts her at danger of violent reprisals. With his church frequented by Nazis, Etienne is a suspected collaborator, and distrust is high. And Marguerite is keeping her own secret too. Like the Jews whose identity cards she forges to hide them from the Third Reich, she is hiding behind a false name, her true identity and past known only to her closest friend. Marguerite must get hold of the documents that will condemn the German officers but, in a world where everything is at stake, can she truly trust anyone – even the man she loves? Praise for The Secrets We Keep: ‘I absolutely loved this… Vivid and heartbreaking.’ Lana Kortchik, USA Today bestselling author of Sisters of War ‘War, passion and tragedy unite in this atmospheric and moving tale.’ S D Sykes, author of the Oswald de Lacy Medieval Murders series ‘A wonderfully immersive, emotional read.’ Annabelle Thorpe, author of The Enemy of Love ‘I stayed up late into the night to finish… A thrilling, exciting story… You might want to have some tissues handy.’ Reader review ‘I enjoyed this novel very much!’ Reader review ‘I highly recommend reading this.’ Reader review ‘Wonderful.’ Reader review Theresa Howes Thu, 10 Nov 2022 08:28:02 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620643 thebookvoice.com 9:11:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620643]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Unbreakable Heart of Oliva Denaro: A Novel Author: Viola Ardone Narrator: Cassandra Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 57 minutes Release date: May 9, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: From the internationally bestselling author of The Children’s Train comes an unforgettable coming-of-age novel, set in 1960s Sicily and based on a true story, of how a young Sicilian girl defied centuries old tradition to win the right to control her own life. As provincial Sicily bursts into life with the jaunty hum of pop music and the heady scent of wild jasmine, fifteen-year-old Oliva Denaro dares to challenge convention, ignoring the taunts of peers, her mother’s scolds, and her own changing body. Spirited and carefree, she loves to run until her lungs burst: to feel the strength of her lithe limbs, to relish the freedom she cherishes, to honor the friends forced by propriety to conform. Though she knows she cannot stop growing up, Oliva resists the future. To her, becoming a woman means denying oneself. But adulthood comes all too quickly when the baker’s son sets his sights on her. Offered a blood orange, Oliva—haunted by her mother’s warning, “a girl who smiles has already said yes”—spurns the fruit. Yet, this act sets into motion an unwanted courtship that will force Oliva to fight for the right to choose her own path, even though the odds of winning are steep. While America and Europe are in the throes of social change, Sicily fiercely clings to its rigid traditions, including the custom of fuitina –by which kidnappings could be disguised as elopements– which is accepted and enshrined in law. Oliva’s battle for independence is based on the real-life story that would ultimately rock Italy–capturing the attention of both the Pope and the nation’s president—and transform life for all Italians. The Unbreakable Heart of Oliva Denaro is a lyrical tale of staggering beauty. Viola Ardone beautifully evokes a land and its people, customs, and passions, and breathes life into an unforgettable girl in all her intensity, desperation, perseverance, and bravery. Alternating between the lighthearted and the tragic, it is a classic coming-of-age novel—powerful, spellbinding, and liberating.

Title: The Last Masterpiece: A Novel of World War II Italy Author: Laura Morelli Narrator: Christa Lewis, Stina Nielsen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 27 minutes Release date: August 1, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: In a race across Nazi-occupied Italy, two women—a German photographer and an American stenographer—hunt for priceless masterpieces looted from the Florentine art collections. In the summer of 1943, Eva Brunner is taking photographs of Nazi-looted art hidden in the salt mines of the Austrian hinterland. Across the ocean in Connecticut, Josephine Evans is working as a humble typist at the Yale Art Gallery. When both women are called to Italy to contribute to the war effort, neither imagines she will hold the fate of some of the world’s greatest masterpieces torn from the Uffizi Galleries and other Florentine art collections in her hands. But as Italy turns from ally to enemy and Hitler’s plan to destroy irreplaceable monuments and works of art becomes frighteningly clear, each woman’s race against the clock—and against one another—might demand more than they were prepared to give. The Last Masterpiece takes readers on a heart-pumping adventure up the Italian peninsula, where nothing is as it seems and some of the greatest works of art and human achievement are at stake. Who might steal and who might save a work of art—and at what cost?

In the summer of 1943, Eva Brunner is taking photographs of Nazi-looted art hidden in the salt mines of the Austrian hinterland. Across the ocean in Connecticut, Josephine Evans is working as a humble typist at the Yale Art Gallery. When both women are called to Italy to contribute to the war effort, neither imagines she will hold the fate of some of the world’s greatest masterpieces torn from the Uffizi Galleries and other Florentine art collections in her hands. But as Italy turns from ally to enemy and Hitler’s plan to destroy irreplaceable monuments and works of art becomes frighteningly clear, each woman’s race against the clock—and against one another—might demand more than they were prepared to give. The Last Masterpiece takes readers on a heart-pumping adventure up the Italian peninsula, where nothing is as it seems and some of the greatest works of art and human achievement are at stake.

Title: To Die Beautiful: A Novel Author: Buzzy Jackson Narrator: Saskia Maarleveld Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 59 minutes Release date: May 2, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 3 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: WINNER OF THE COLORADO BOOK AWARD FOR HISTORICAL FICTION  NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD FINALIST A heartrending novel based on a true story of love, loyalty, and the limits we confront when our deepest values are tested, by award-winning writer Buzzy Jackson   How far would you go to protect the people and country you love?   It’s 1940 and Hannie Schaft is a shy nineteen-year-old law student living in the Nazi-occupied Netherlands with ambitious goals for her future. But dreams die in wartime, and Hannie’s closest friends are no longer safe as fascism insidiously rises in her country. Hiding them is not enough. Hannie may be young but she can’t stand aside as the menace of Nazi evil tightens its grip. Driven by love and moral outrage, Hannie soon becomes an armed member of the Dutch Resistance movement. Hannie discovers her own untapped ferocity—wearing lipstick and heels to lure powerful Nazis close and assassinate them at point-blank range, and bombing munitions factories. As humanity collapses around her, Hannie finds a chosen family of friends within the Resistance and falls in love with a dashing fellow resister at a tremendous cost. Her greatest weapon is her determination to 'stay human' (blijf menselijk) . . . a promise increasingly difficult to keep.    As Hannie is drawn deeper into a web of plots, disguises and assassinations, whispers spread like wildfire among enemy and friend alike. They all know of her, if not her name: she’s “the Girl with Red Hair.” A match for any Nazi soldier. A true threat. And a target.   To Die Beautiful is a timely look at how fascism flourishes and what good people do to fight back. Based on real events, To Die Beautiful is told with the drama and emotional resonance of meticulously researched history.

After four-year-old Asenath’s mother is murdered by Egypt’s foreign rulers, the child is raised to be a priestess by her overprotective father—high priest of Egypt’s sun god. For fifteen years, Asenath is sequestered in the upper levels of Ra’s temple, convinced it is her destiny to heal the land by becoming queen to the next Egyptian pharaoh. But when Egypt’s foreign king instead gives her as a bride to the newly appointed vizier—a Hebrew named Joseph—her entire world is shaken.  Beyond the walls of her tower, Asenath discovers treachery, deceit, and conspiracy that force her to redefine her destiny and weigh where her true loyalties lie.

Title: The Friday Night Club: A Novel of Artist Hilma af Klint and Her Creative Circle Author: Sofia Lundberg, M.J. Rose, Alyson Richman Narrator: Pete Cross, Alyson Richman, Tavia Gilbert Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 16 minutes Release date: May 16, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: An International Bestseller While men have long been credited with producing the first abstract paintings, the true creator was actually a woman – Swedish artist Hilma af Klint, who was inspired by her mystic visions. Acclaimed authors Sofia Lundberg, Alyson Richman, and M.J. Rose bring her story to life in this groundbreaking novel.   Early 1900s: The world belongs to men, and the art world in Stockholm, Sweden, is no different, until Hilma af Klint brings together a mysterious group of female painters and writers—Anna, Cornelia, Sigrid, and Mathilda—to form their own emotional and artistic support system.  The members of the Friday Night Club find themselves thrust into uncharted territory when Hilma and her best friend, Anna, begin dabbling in the occult, believing that through séances they can channel unseen spirits to help them achieve their potential as artists. “The Five,” as Hilma referred to them, was a group of immensely talented, fascinating women whose lives and work were cast into obscurity...until now.   The Present: Over a century later, an associate curator at the Guggenheim Museum, Eben Elliot, brings the Hilma af Klint show to New York where he uncovers questions about the Five and how the modern day art world is funded, which puts him in a precarious position both emotionally and professionally, as he witnesses how history can be manipulated.   The Friday Night Club is an illuminating historical novel that explores destiny, passion, and the threads that connect five women as they challenge artistic and societal traditions.

Title: The Disenchantment: A Novel Author: Celia Bell Narrator: Madeleine Leslay Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 35 minutes Release date: May 16, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: This radiant and thrilling debut follows a passionate love affair between two noblewomen who wish to free themselves from their repressive society, whatever the cost. “Propel[s] us into the epicentre of a 17th century Paris where breaking out of the prison of arranged marriage is only one of the many challenges confronting women.” —Lisa Appignanesi, author of Everyday Madness In 17th century Paris, everyone has something to hide. The noblemen and women and writers consort with fortune tellers in the confines of their homes, servants practice witchcraft and black magic, and the titled poison family members to obtain inheritance. But for the Baroness Marie Catherine, the only thing she wishes to hide is how unhappy she is in her marriage, and the pleasures she seeks outside of it. When her husband is present, the Baroness spends her days tending to her children and telling them elaborate fairy tales, but when he’s gone, Marie Catherine indulges in a more liberated existence, one of forward-thinking discussions with female scholars in the salons of grand houses, and at the center of her freedom: Victoire Rose de Bourbon, Mademoiselle de Conti, the androgynous, self-assured countess who steals Marie Catherine’s heart and becomes her lover. Victoire possesses everything Marie Catherine does not—confidence in her love, and a brazen fearlessness in all that she’s willing to do for it. But when a shocking and unexpected murder occurs, Marie Catherine must escape. And what she discovers is the dark underbelly of a city full of people who have secrets they would kill to keep. The Disenchantment is a stunning debut that conjures an unexpected world of passion, crime, intrigue, and black magic.

West’s translations . . . reintroduce English-language readers to this giant of Latin American fiction.” —Natasha Wimmer, The New York Review of Books One of Cuba’s—and Latin America’s—greatest historical novels, about imperial conquest carried out under the guise of liberation, in its first new English translation in sixty years and featuring a new foreword by Alejandro Zambra A Penguin Classic When he arrives in Cuba at the close of the eighteenth century, Victor Hugues, a merchant sailor from Marseille, brings with him not only the idealism of the French Revolution but also its ambition and bloodlust. Landing at the Havana doorstep of a trio of wealthy, eccentric Creole orphans, he sweeps them across the Caribbean Sea to Guadeloupe, whose enslaved Africans he frees only then to exploit them in his fight against the British for colonial sovereignty. What ensues in Alejo Carpentier’s swashbuckling, magical realist masterpiece is an explosive clash between the New World and the Old World, and between revolutionary ideals and the corrupting allure of power. For more than seventy-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 2,000 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Title: Peach Blossom Paradise Author: Ge Fei Narrator: Cindy Kay Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 44 minutes Release date: May 24, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: An enthralling story of revolution, idealism, and a savage struggle for utopia by one of China's greatest living novelists In 1898 reformist intellectuals in China persuaded the young emperor that it was time to transform his sclerotic empire into a prosperous modern state. The Hundred Days’ Reform that followed was a moment of unprecedented change and extraordinary hope—brought to an abrupt end by a bloody military coup. Dashed expectations would contribute to the revolutionary turn that Chinese history would soon take, leading in time to the deaths of millions. Peach Blossom Paradise, set at the time of the reform, is the story of Xiumi, the daughter of a wealthy landowner and former government official who falls prey to insanity and disappears. Days later, a man with a gold cicada in his pocket turns up at their family estate and is inexplicably welcomed as a relative. This mysterious man has a great vision of reforging China as an egalitarian utopia, and he will stop at nothing to make it real. It is his own plans, however, which come to nothing, and his “little sister” Xiumi is left to take up arms against a Confucian world in which women are chattel. Her campaign for change and her struggle to seize control over her own body are continually threatened by the violent whims of men who claim to be building paradise.

Title: Twice Told Tales Author: Nathaniel Hawthorne Narrator: The Ark, Geoffrey Giuliano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 7 minutes Release date: March 26, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Twice-Told Tales is a short story collection in two volumes by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The first was published in the spring of 1837, and the second in 1842. The stories had all been previously published in magazines and annuals, hence the name. Hawthorne was an American novelist, dark romantic, and short story writer. His works often focus on history, morality, and religion. He was born in 1804 in Salem, Massachusetts, from a family long associated with that town. Hawthorne entered Bowdoin College in 1821 and graduated in 1825. He published his first work in 1828, the novel Fanshawe; he later tried to suppress it, feeling it was not equal to the standard of his later work.[He published several short stories in periodicals, which he collected in 1837 as Twice-Told Tales. The following year, he became engaged to Sophia Peabody. He worked at the Boston Custom House and joined Brook Farm, a transcendentalist community, before marrying Peabody in 1842. The couple moved to The Old Manse in Concord, Massachusetts, later moving to Salem, the Berkshires, then to The Wayside in Concord. The Scarlet Letter was published in 1850, followed by a succession of other novels. A political appointment as consul took Hawthorne and family to Europe before their return to Concord in 1860.

The first was published in the spring of 1837, and the second in 1842. The stories had all been previously published in magazines and annuals, hence the name. Hawthorne was an American novelist, dark romantic, and short story writer. His works often focus on history, morality, and religion. He was born in 1804 in Salem, Massachusetts, from a family long associated with that town. Hawthorne entered Bowdoin College in 1821 and graduated in 1825. He published his first work in 1828, the novel Fanshawe; he later tried to suppress it, feeling it was not equal to the standard of his later work.[He published several short stories in periodicals, which he collected in 1837 as Twice-Told Tales. The following year, he became engaged to Sophia Peabody. He worked at the Boston Custom House and joined Brook Farm, a transcendentalist community, before marrying Peabody in 1842. The couple moved to The Old Manse in Concord, Massachusetts, later moving to Salem, the Berkshires, then to The Wayside in Concord. The Scarlet Letter was published in 1850, followed by a succession of other novels. A political appointment as consul took Hawthorne and family to Europe before their return to Concord in 1860. Hawthorne died on May 19, 1864, and was survived by his wife and their three children. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/619428 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/619428]]> to listen full audiobooks.

The Russians have cut off all access to the western part of Berlin in an attempt to seize it from the Allies. The thirst for power, dominance, and revenge is as strong as ever, and anti-Semitism is still rampant. When a store in West Berlin is vandalized with Swastikas, Sara Sturm, a German woman working for the US Department of Public Affairs, is dispatched to investigate, and meets Max and Karl Portnoy, two Jewish survivors of the Holocaust. Sharing their stories of loss, Sara and Max form a bond. Max and his family were sent to a concentration camp during the war, where his parents and sister perished. The man who betrayed them, Nazi nuclear scientist Heinz Hoffman, is now a wanted criminal. Sara agrees to accompany them to Hoffman's last known whereabouts, hoping they will finally be able to bring him to justice. But tracking the elusive Hoffman is not just difficult, it's perilous. From the mountainous backroads of Bavaria to the Soviet border, Sara and Max race to evade assassins sent by the top-secret Odessa organization.

Title: Jazzed Author: Jill Dearman Narrator: Orlagh Cassidy Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 10 minutes Release date: February 14, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Academic geniuses Wilhelmina “Will” Reinhardt and Dorothy “Dolly” Raab become roommates at Barnard in the early 1920s, a time when college for women was a rarity. Socially awkward Will, grieving her mother’s death, is fascinated by Dolly, a beautiful, charming rebel with an insatiable taste for adrenaline. Both musicians come alive at Harlem jazz clubs and Prohibition-era speakeasies. Dazzled by the world they are discovering together, their romance ignites. But while Will is obsessed with Dolly, Dolly is obsessed with crime. The power dynamics keep shifting as Will agrees to commit petty crimes with Dolly in exchange for sexual favors. When the University and their rich families unite to split them up, passions escalate. To strike back at those who deny them the right to be together, they plot another crime: murder. A gender-swapped take on the infamous “Leopold and Loeb” case, Jazzed is part historical fiction, part true crime. Juxtaposing the thrilling scientific breakthroughs in quantum physics and artistic explosion of the Harlem Renaissance with the pseudoscience of eugenics and anti-immigration fervor that also defined the era, the novel mirrors today’s polarized world and moves with the fast-paced rhythm of jazz itself.

El Sáhara, 1890. Cuando Beatriz Ayala vuelve en sí, después de estar a punto de morir en pleno desierto, tiene una sola idea en la cabeza: regresar a su hogar en España, del que fue brutalmente arrancada para ser vendida como esclava. Nada ni nadie le impedirá llevar a cabo su empresa. Ni siquiera Tahir Abdul-Azim, poderoso líder de una Confederación tuareg, el bravo y noble guerrero que la ha salvado de las garras de la muerte, tan atractivo e imponente que despierta en ella un fulgurante deseo imposible de dominar. Pero él no parece opinar lo mismo. Tahir vive para su pueblo, y está dispuesto a cualquier sacrificio por él. Sobre todo, si ese sacrificio se traduce en hacerse cargo de una hermosa y testaruda mujer por la que se siente irremediablemente atraído. Consciente de que pertenecen a mundos totalmente opuestos, pero dispuesto a vencer su carácter obstinado para convertirse en el amo de toda su pasión, la acepta como huésped. Iniciarán así una aventura a través de territorios convulsionados por las luchas internas de poder y los efectos devastadores de la colonización, donde Beatriz será capaz de sortear toda clase de peligros, excepto uno: resistirse al oscuro embrujo del hombre que la protegerá con su vida, irrumpiendo con fuerza en su corazón.'

Title: The Chinese Groove: A Novel Author: Kathryn Ma Narrator: James Chen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 14 minutes Release date: January 24, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.67 of Total 3 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Anne Tyler meets Jade Chang in this buoyant, good-hearted, and sharply written novel about a blithely optimistic immigrant with big dreams, dire prospects, and a fractured extended family in need of his help—even if they don't know it yet Eighteen-year-old Shelley, born into a much-despised branch of the Zheng family in Yunnan Province and living in the shadow of his widowed father’s grief, dreams of bigger things. Buoyed by an exuberant heart and his cousin Deng’s tall tales about the United States, Shelley heads to San Francisco to claim his destiny, confident that any hurdles will be easily overcome by the awesome powers of the “Chinese groove,” a belief in the unspoken bonds between countrymen that transcend time and borders. Upon arrival, Shelley is dismayed to find that his “rich uncle” is in fact his unemployed second cousin once removed and that the grand guest room he’d envisioned is but a scratchy sofa. The indefinite stay he’d planned for? That has a firm two-week expiration date. Even worse, the loving family he hoped would embrace him is in shambles, shattered by a senseless tragedy that has cleaved the family in two. They want nothing to do with this youthful bounder who’s barged into their lives. Ever the optimist, Shelley concocts a plan to resuscitate his American dream by insinuating himself into the family. And, who knows, maybe he’ll even manage to bring them back together in the process.

Title: It’s Alive! Author: Julian David Stone Narrator: Stefan Rudnicki Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 49 minutes Release date: May 17, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The only thing harder than raising the dead is making a movie about raising the dead. In the summer of 1931, life was good for Junior Laemmle. Though only twenty-three-years-old, he was the head of all movie production for Universal Pictures, and under his reign, the studio flourished. So much so, he was about to be bestowed with the greatest honor a young executive can receive in Hollywood: a promotion to vice president of the entire company. What’s more, Carl Laemmle, his father and founder of the studio, was returning to California for the first time in years to personally present the honor to his son. Or so Junior thought. When his father arrives, Junior discovers that instead of being grateful for transforming and catapulting the out-of-date studio into the future, his father is obsessed with Junior’s next production: Frankenstein. Like the year before, Carl is fervently against making another grisly and gothic film, despite Dracula becoming a huge hit—a project which Junior fought for and personally oversaw through production. Also not helping Junior’s cause, though the film is just days away from beginning production, the final choice between Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff to play the role of the Monster, has yet to be made. It’s Alive! is a thrilling and vibrant portrait of 1930s Hollywood centered around the chaotic and exciting days just before the filming of the beloved cult-classic film, Frankenstein. Woven with hopeful passion, emotional vulnerability, staunch determination, and creative fulfillment, readers will be swept along with breathless cinematic pace through events that will not only change the lives of everyone involved, but Hollywood itself.

What’s more, Carl Laemmle, his father and founder of the studio, was returning to California for the first time in years to personally present the honor to his son. Or so Junior thought. When his father arrives, Junior discovers that instead of being grateful for transforming and catapulting the out-of-date studio into the future, his father is obsessed with Junior’s next production: Frankenstein. Like the year before, Carl is fervently against making another grisly and gothic film, despite Dracula becoming a huge hit—a project which Junior fought for and personally oversaw through production. Also not helping Junior’s cause, though the film is just days away from beginning production, the final choice between Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff to play the role of the Monster, has yet to be made. It’s Alive! is a thrilling and vibrant portrait of 1930s Hollywood centered around the chaotic and exciting days just before the filming of the beloved cult-classic film, Frankenstein. Woven with hopeful passion, emotional vulnerability, staunch determination, and creative fulfillment, readers will be swept along with breathless cinematic pace through events that will not only change the lives of everyone involved, but Hollywood itself.

Siete hermanas, siete destinos, un padre con un pasado misterioso. En apariencia, Electra d'Aplièse lo tiene todo para ser feliz. Es bella, rica, famosa y una de las modelos más cotizadas del mundo. Pero debajo de esa perfecta fachada Electra no ha sido capaz de superar la muerte de su padre, el misterioso millonario Pa Salt, y recurre constantemente al alcohol y las drogas. Mientras lucha por salir a flote, un día recibe una carta de una desconocida que asegura ser su abuela... En 1939, Cecily Huntley-Morgan viaja a Kenia desde Nueva York en un intento de recomponer su corazón roto. Tras instalarse con su madrina en las orillas del idílico lago Naivasha, conoce a Bill Forsythe, un hacendado de carácter hosco y estrechos lazos con la orgullosa tribu de los masáis. Pero la guerra se acerca y Cecily se siente cada vez más aislada. Hasta que un encuentro con una mujer en el bosque propicia una promesa que cambiará su vida para siempre. La crítica ha dicho: «La hermana sol es la más deslumbrante, atrevida e inteligente novela de Lucinda Riley hasta la fecha.» Lancashire Evening Post «La hermana sol es extraordinaria, brillante y una lectura maravillosa.

Su habilidad para entrelazar sus tramas combinando ambientes históricos y actuales es excelente.» Historical Novel Society «Lucinda Riley ha escrito una saga familiar muy bien construida, absorbente y emocionante, perfectamente ambientada tanto histórica como culturalmente...

El resultado es un vívido, humano y entrañable retrato en el que el personaje se despoja y trasciende las etiquetas de patriota o traidor. París, 1867. Juan Nepomuceno Almonte, hijo de José María Morelos y Pavón, llega a Francia para solicitar la ayuda de Napoleón III con el fin de sostener el imperio de Maximiliano, sin embargo, no tiene éxito. Unos meses después de la ejecución del emperador, un grupo clandestino de mexicanos y franceses que busca instaurar el Tercer Imperio Mexicano, lo contacta para que apoye sus ambiciones.

Title: [Spanish] - La niña polaca Author: Mónica Rojas Narrator: Karina Castillo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 28 minutes Release date: August 25, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: La novela de Mónica Rojas no solo destierra del olvido la tragedia de la ocupación de Polonia durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, sino que reivindica la importancia de la que será conocida desde entonces como La Pequeña Polonia en México. Agosto de 1939. Mientras los líderes de la Unión Soviética y la Alemania nazi se reúnen en Moscú para repartirse los territorios de Polonia, la joven Ania juega en el campo, ajena a toda barbarie. Sin embargo, todo cambia tras la ocupación de su pueblito Komarno por tropas bolcheviques: ella y su familia serán trasladados al Gulag siberiano, donde trabajarán sin descanso bajo un frío inclemente, arriesgando cada día su integridad física y viviendo bajo el despiadado peso de la desesperanza. Para sobrevivir, Ania deberá atenerse a los recuerdos de Cezlaw, su primer amor; a la bondad de la anciana Olga, quien mantiene viva su curiosidad gracias a sus historias; y a la tierna devoción de sus padres. Por fortuna el destino quiso para Ania la oportunidad de abandonar el trabajo forzado y emigrar. Junto con su familia y otros muchos polacos, y tras una travesía extenuante, se instalarán en la Hacienda de Santa Rosa en Guanajuato, México, donde por fin encontrarán la redención y una nueva patria.

Title: The Secret Book of Flora Lea: A Novel Author: Patti Callahan Henry Narrator: Cynthia Erivo, Patti Callahan Henry Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 24 minutes Release date: May 2, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.63 of Total 27 Ratings of Narrator: 4.64 of Total 11 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: When a woman discovers a rare book with connections to her past, long-held secrets about her missing sister and their childhood in the English countryside during World War II are revealed in this “beguiling blend of hope, mystery, and true familial love” (Sadeqa Johnson, New York Times bestselling author). In the war-torn London of 1939, fourteen-year-old Hazel and five-year-old Flora are evacuated to a rural village to escape the horrors of the Second World War. Living with the kind Bridie Aberdeen and her teenage son, Harry, in a charming stone cottage along the River Thames, Hazel fills their days with walks and games to distract her young sister, including one that she creates for her sister and her sister alone—a fairy tale about a magical land, a secret place they can escape to that is all their own. But the unthinkable happens when young Flora suddenly vanishes while playing near the banks of the river. Shattered, Hazel blames herself for her sister’s disappearance, and she carries that guilt into adulthood as a private burden she feels she deserves. Twenty years later, Hazel is in London, ready to move on from her job at a cozy rare bookstore to a career at Sotheby’s. With a charming boyfriend and her elegantly timeworn Bloomsbury flat, Hazel’s future seems determined. But her tidy life is turned upside down when she unwraps a package containing an illustrated book called Whisperwood and the River of Stars. Hazel never told a soul about the imaginary world she created just for Flora. Could this book hold the secrets to Flora’s disappearance? Could it be a sign that her beloved sister is still alive after all these years? As Hazel embarks on a feverish quest, revisiting long-dormant relationships and bravely opening wounds from her past, her career and future hang in the balance. Spellbinding and atmospheric, “this heartrending, captivating tale of family, first love, and fate will sweep you away” (Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author).

Twenty years later, Hazel is in London, ready to move on from her job at a cozy rare bookstore to a career at Sotheby’s. With a charming boyfriend and her elegantly timeworn Bloomsbury flat, Hazel’s future seems determined. But her tidy life is turned upside down when she unwraps a package containing an illustrated book called Whisperwood and the River of Stars. Hazel never told a soul about the imaginary world she created just for Flora. Could this book hold the secrets to Flora’s disappearance? Could it be a sign that her beloved sister is still alive after all these years? As Hazel embarks on a feverish quest, revisiting long-dormant relationships and bravely opening wounds from her past, her career and future hang in the balance. Spellbinding and atmospheric, “this heartrending, captivating tale of family, first love, and fate will sweep you away” (Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author). https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618171 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618171]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Meet LA darling Evra Scott. The daughter of an Oscar-winning director and a Brazilian bombshell actress, Evra is the city’s reigning style queen. By day, she’s at the helm of Sunset on Sunset, the store beloved by Hollywood’s young and beautiful. By night, she’s on the arm of Kai de la Faire, Hawaii’s hottest export, and the screenwriter of the moment. Enter Theodora Leigh. The twenty-something Paramount assistant looks like a big screen star, but her sights are firmly set behind the scenes, as she fights to become a movie producer in a town where sex and sexism sell. Theodora’s got the talent and instincts, but she’s not willing to wait. Luckily, getting ahead by any means necessary is LA’s mantra. Observing it all is Bea Dupont, a photographer for Rolling Stone and Vogue, who never misses the party, but always keeps to its fringes. A Manhattan blue blood turned West Coast bohemian, Bea holds Evra’s Sunset crowd together. She’s also Kai’s oldest friend, and she’s harbored a not-so-secret flame for him since they met at an elite Swiss boarding school. But in Hollywood, no one stays on top forever. And it’s not long before Theodora’s unrelenting ambition sets in motion a dramatic quest for power in an industry that is as glamorous as it is duplicitous. From Rodeo Drive to the French Riviera, The Sunset Crowd is a tale of survival and reinvention, of faking it until you make it, and the glittering appeal of success and stardom, as it seeks to answer that timeless question—who gets to have the American dream?

Title: A History of Burning Author: Janika Oza Narrator: Kp Upadhyayula, Lipica Shah Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 40 minutes Release date: May 4, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. An immersive, kaleidoscopic debut for fans of Homegoing and Pachinko: one family's search for a better life through four continents, four generations and a century of change At the turn of the twentieth century Pirbhai, a teenage boy, is taken from his village in India and travels perilously across the sea to labour on the East African railroad for the British. There, he is given a ruthless order. Following it will ensure his survival. But it will also torment him and reverberate across his family's future for decades to come. During the waning days of British colonial rule, and as Uganda moves towards independence and military dictatorship, Pirbhai's children and grandchildren come of age in a divided nation. In 1972, when Idi Amin's brutal regime expels the Ugandan Asians, the family has no choice but to flee. In the chaos, they leave something devastating and unexpected behind. As Pirbhai's grandchildren find their way back to each other in exile in Toronto, a letter arrives that will stoke the flames of the fire that haunts the family. It makes each generation question how far they are willing to go, and who they are willing to defy, in order to secure their own place in the world. A History of Burning is an unforgettable tour de force, an intimate family saga of complicity and resistance, about the stories we share, what remains unspoken and the eternal search for home. ©2023 Janika Oza (P)2023 Penguin Audio Janika Oza Thu, 04 May 2023 08:28:02 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617982 thebookvoice.com 13:40:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617982]]> to listen full audiobooks.

The winds shift nervously on the Kansas plain whispering of travelers lost and buried, whispering of witches. Something dark and twisted has taken root at the Bender Inn . . . At first the townspeople of Cherryvale welcome the rising medium Kate Bender and her family. Kate's messages from the Beyond give their tedious dreams hope and her mother's potions cure their little ills-for a price. No one knows about their other business, the shortcut to a better life. And why shouldn't their family prosper? They're careful. It's only from those who are marked, those who travel alone and can easily disappear, that the Benders demand their pound of flesh. But even a gifted seer like Kate can make a misstep. Now as the secrets festering beneath the soil of the family orchard threaten to bring them all to ruin, the Benders must sharpen their craft-or vanish themselves.

Title: Poland, a Green Land: A Novel Author: Aharon Appelfeld Narrator: Gilli Messer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 11 minutes Release date: June 20, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A Tel Aviv shopkeeper visits his parents’ Polish birthplace in an attempt to come to terms with their complex legacy—and is completely unprepared for what he finds there. Yaakov Fine’s practical wife and daughters are baffled by his decision to leave his flourishing dress shop for a ten-day trip to his family’s ancestral village in Poland. Struggling to emerge from a midlife depression, Yaakov is drawn to Szydowce, intrigued by the stories he'd heard as a child from his parents and their friends, who would wax nostalgic about their pastoral, verdant hometown in the decades before 1939. The horrific years that followed were relegated to the nightmares that shattered sleep and were not discussed during waking hours. When he arrives in Krakow, Yaakov enjoys the charming sidewalk cafes and relaxed European atmosphere, so different from the hurly burly of Tel Aviv. And his landlady in Szydowce—beautiful, sensual Magda, with a tragic past of her own—enchants him with her recollections of his family. But when Yaakov attempts to purchase from the townspeople the desecrated tombstones that had been stolen from Szydowce’s plowed-under Jewish cemetery, a very different Poland emerges, one that shatters Yaakov’s idyllic view of the town and its people, and casts into sharp relief the tragic reality of Jewish life in Poland—past, present, and future. In this novel of revelation and reconciliation, Aharon Appelfeld once again mines lived experience to create fiction of powerful, universal resonance.

Yaakov Fine’s practical wife and daughters are baffled by his decision to leave his flourishing dress shop for a ten-day trip to his family’s ancestral village in Poland. Struggling to emerge from a midlife depression, Yaakov is drawn to Szydowce, intrigued by the stories he'd heard as a child from his parents and their friends, who would wax nostalgic about their pastoral, verdant hometown in the decades before 1939. The horrific years that followed were relegated to the nightmares that shattered sleep and were not discussed during waking hours. When he arrives in Krakow, Yaakov enjoys the charming sidewalk cafes and relaxed European atmosphere, so different from the hurly burly of Tel Aviv. And his landlady in Szydowce—beautiful, sensual Magda, with a tragic past of her own—enchants him with her recollections of his family.

There’s £1,300 missing from the bank account he shares with his wife, Efe, and his calls are going straight to voicemail. When he finally reaches someone, he learns that Efe is over four thousand miles away, as their toddler looks around and asks, “Where’s Mummy?” When Efe and Sam met as teens headed for university, it seemed that everyone knew they were meant to be. Efe, newly arrived in the UK from Ghana and sinking under the weight of her parents’ expectations, found comfort in the focused and idealistic Sam. He was stable, working toward a law career, and had an unwavering vision for their future—a vision Efe, now a decade later, finds insufferable. From the outside, they’re the picture-perfect couple everyone imagined, but there are cracks in the frame. Faced with a life-altering decision, Efe and Sam find themselves on opposing sides, forced to confront just how radically different they want their lives to be. Then one day, Efe disappears. Rootless is a heartrending story about sacrifice, family, and ambition, providing an intimate look at what happens after a marriage collapses—and if it can still be saved.

Sarah sympathizes with her captors, and slips into the gap between her two worlds” (TIME). “The story has it all: the bloody hell of war…revenge, corruption, injustice. Even some romance…A vivid tale of frontier adventure and peril.” —Minneapolis Star-Tribune One of our most compelling and sensual writers brings to life a devastating Native American revolt and the woman caught in the middle of the conflict in this novel about a seminal and shameful moment in America’s conquest of the West. In the summer of 1855, Sarah Brinton abandons her husband and child to make the long and difficult journey from Rhode Island to Minnesota Territory, where she plans to reunite with a childhood friend. When she arrives at a small frontier post on the edge of the prairie without family or friends and with no prospect of work or money, she quickly remarries and has two children. Anticipating unease and hardship at the Indian Agency, where her husband Dr. John Brinton is the new resident physician, Sarah instead finds acceptance and kinship among the Sioux women at a nearby reservation. The Sioux tribes, however, are wary of the white settlers and resent the rampant theft of their land. Promised payments by the federal government are never made, and starvation and disease soon begin to decimate their community. Tragically and inevitably, this leads to the Sioux Uprising of 1862. During the conflict, Sarah and her children are abducted by the Sioux, who protect her, but because she sympathizes with her captors, Sarah becomes an outcast to the white settlers. In the end, she is lost to both worlds. Intimate and raw, The Lost Wife is a searing tale of the conquest of the American West.

Title: Cursed Bread: A Novel Author: Sophie Mackintosh Narrator: Genevieve Gaunt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 21 minutes Release date: April 4, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 4 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION NOMINEE • Best Book of the Month: The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Book Riot, CrimeReads • An elegant and hypnotic new novel of obsession that centers on the real unsolved mystery of the 1951 mass poisoning of a French village, by the Booker Prize–nominated author of The Water Cure 'Intoxicating, sumptuous, and savage.”—Alexandra Kleeman, acclaimed author of Something New Under the Sun Still reeling in the aftermath of the deadliest war the world had ever seen, the small town of Pont-Saint-Esprit collectively lost its mind. Some historians believe the mysterious illness and violent hallucinations were caused by spoiled bread; others claim it was the result of covert government testing on the local population. In that town lived a woman named Elodie. She was the baker’s wife: a plain, unremarkable person who yearned to transcend her dull existence. So when a charismatic new couple arrived in town, the forceful ambassador and his sharp-toothed wife, Violet, Elodie was quickly drawn into their orbit. Thus began a dangerous game of cat and mouse--but who was the predator and on whom did they prey? Audacious and mesmerizing, Cursed Bread is a fevered confession, an entry into memory’s hall of mirrors, and an erotic fable of transformation. Sophie Mackintosh spins a darkly gleaming tale of a town gripped by hysteria, envy like poison in the blood, and desire that burns and consumes.

Title: Candide: The Classic Tale Author: Voltaire Narrator: The Cliff, Cyril Taylor-Carr Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 52 minutes Release date: August 6, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Candide is characterized by its tone as well as by its erratic, fantastical, and fast-moving plot. A picaresque novel with a story similar to that of a more serious coming-of-age narrative, it parodies many adventure and romance clichés, the struggles of which are caricatured in a tone that is bitter and matter-of-fact. Still, the events discussed are often based on historical happenings, such as the Seven Years' War and the 1755 Lisbon earthquake. As philosophers of Voltaire's day contended with the problem of evil, so does Candide in this short theological novel, albeit more directly and humorously. Voltaire ridicules religion, theologians, governments, armies, philosophies, and philosophers. Through Candide, he assaults Leibniz and his optimism. Candide has enjoyed both great success and great scandal. Immediately after its secretive publication, the book was widely banned to the public because it contained religious blasphemy, political sedition, and intellectual hostility hidden under a thin veil of naïveté. However, with its sharp wit and insightful portrayal of the human condition, the novel has since inspired many later authors and artists to mimic and adapt it. Today, Candide is considered as Voltaire's magnum opus and is often listed as part of the Western canon. It is among the most frequently taught works of French literature. The British poet and literary critic Martin Seymour-Smith listed Candide as one of the 100 most influential books ever written.

Title: Redburn His First Voyage Author: Herman Melville Narrator: The Ark, Geoffrey Giuliano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 41 minutes Release date: August 3, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Herman Melville was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet of the American Renaissance period. Among his bestknown works are MobyDick (1851); Typee (1846), a romanticized account of his experiences in Polynesia; and Billy Budd, Sailor, a posthumously published novella. Although his reputation was not high at the time of his death, the 1919 centennial of his birth was the starting point of a Melville revival, and MobyDick grew to be considered one of the great American novels. Melville's growing literary ambition showed in MobyDick (1851), which took nearly a year and a half to write, but it did not find an audience, and critics scorned his psychological novel Pierre: or, The Ambiguities (1852). From 1853 to 1856, Melville published short fiction in magazines, including 'Benito Cereno' and 'Bartleby, the Scrivener'. In 1857, he traveled to England, toured the Near East, and published his last work of prose, The ConfidenceMan (1857). He moved to New York in 1863, eventually taking a position as United States customs inspector. From that point, Melville focused his creative powers on poetry. BattlePieces and Aspects of the War (1866) was his poetic reflection on the moral questions of the American Civil War. In 1867, his eldest child Malcolm died at home from a selfinflicted gunshot. Melville's metaphysical epic Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land was published in 1876. In 1886, his other son Stanwix died of apparent tuberculosis, and Melville retired. During his last years, he privately published two volumes of poetry, and left one volume unpublished. The novella Billy Budd was left unfinished at his death, but was published posthumously in 1924. Melville died from cardiovascular disease in 1891.

He moved to New York in 1863, eventually taking a position as United States customs inspector. From that point, Melville focused his creative powers on poetry. BattlePieces and Aspects of the War (1866) was his poetic reflection on the moral questions of the American Civil War. In 1867, his eldest child Malcolm died at home from a selfinflicted gunshot. Melville's metaphysical epic Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land was published in 1876. In 1886, his other son Stanwix died of apparent tuberculosis, and Melville retired. During his last years, he privately published two volumes of poetry, and left one volume unpublished. The novella Billy Budd was left unfinished at his death, but was published posthumously in 1924. Melville died from cardiovascular disease in 1891.

Title: The World in a Man of War Author: Herman Melville Narrator: The Ark, Geoffrey Giuliano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 52 minutes Release date: August 3, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Herman Melville was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet of the American Renaissance period. Among his bestknown works are MobyDick (1851); Typee (1846), a romanticized account of his experiences in Polynesia; and Billy Budd, Sailor, a posthumously published novella. Although his reputation was not high at the time of his death, the 1919 centennial of his birth was the starting point of a Melville revival, and MobyDick grew to be considered one of the great American novels. Melville's growing literary ambition showed in MobyDick (1851), which took nearly a year and a half to write, but it did not find an audience, and critics scorned his psychological novel Pierre: or, The Ambiguities (1852).

Title: A Bakery in Paris: A Novel Author: Aimie K. Runyan Narrator: Caroline Hewitt, Imani Jade Powers Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 6 minutes Release date: August 1, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: From the author of The School for German Brides, this captivating historical novel set in nineteenth-century and post–World War II Paris follows two fierce women of the same family, generations apart, who find that their futures lie in the four walls of a simple bakery in a tiny corner of Montmartre.   1870: The Prussians are at the city gates, intent to starve Paris into submission. Lisette Vigneau—headstrong, willful, and often ignored by her wealthy parents—awaits the outcome of the war from her parents’ grand home in the Place Royale in the very heart of the city. When an excursion throws her into the path of a revolutionary National Guardsman, Théodore Fournier, her destiny is forever changed. She gives up her life of luxury to join in the fight for a Paris of the People. She opens a small bakery with the hopes of being a vital boon to the impoverished neighborhood in its hour of need. When the city falls into famine, and then rebellion, her resolve to give up the comforts of her past life is sorely tested. 1946: Nineteen-year-old Micheline Chartier is coping with the loss of her father and the disappearance of her mother during the war. In their absence, she is charged with the raising of her two younger sisters. At the hand of a well-meaning neighbor, Micheline finds herself enrolled in a prestigious baking academy with her entire life mapped out for her. Feeling trapped and desperately unequal to the task of raising two young girls, she becomes obsessed with finding her mother. Her classmate at the academy, Laurent Tanet, may be the only one capable of helping Micheline move on from the past and begin creating a future for herself.  Both women must grapple with loss, learn to accept love, and face impossible choices armed with little more than their courage and a belief that a bit of flour, yeast, sugar, and love can bring about a revolution of their own.

Twenty thousand kilometres and four months of sailing are what stands between England and the colony of Australia. In his struggles to bring order in the colony, and to protect its settlers from abuse of power, and injustice, Governor Bligh is up against some powerful enemies and mischievous schemers. Three strong-minded governors have failed to complete the task before him ... And England seems to have had enough of the war against France. Rebels and outcasts, they fled halfway across the earth to settle the harsh Australian wastelands. Decades later — ennobled by love and strengthened by tragedy — they had transformed a wilderness into a fertile land. And themselves into The Australians.

Title: [German] - Die ersten Tiger: Zweiter Weltkrieg, Ostfront 1942 - Der schwere Panzer Tiger I greift zum ersten Mal an Author: Tom Zola Narrator: Max Kleemann Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 57 minutes Release date: August 4, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Tom Zola ist zurück! Mit seinem Kurzroman »Die ersten Tiger« liefert er einen packenden Erlebnisbericht vom ersten Fronteinsatz des berüchtigten deutschen Kampfpanzers Tiger I »57 Tonnen pure Kraft, 8,8-cm-Kampfwagenkanone 36, bis zu 110 mm Panzerstahl. Diese Dame verspeist T-34 auf 2.000 Meter zum Frühstück.« Mit diesen Worten stellt Dr. Dieter Schirmann, Ingenieur bei Henschel & Sohn, im Sommer 1942 den schweren deutschen Tiger I den staunenden Panzermännern vor. Der Krieg gegen die Sowjetunion läuft nun schon seit fast einem Jahr; und die russischen T-34 haben die deutsche Panzerwaffe in Schock versetzt. Abhilfe soll der neue Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger schaffen. Das Oberkommando der Wehrmacht befiehlt aufgrund der prekären Kriegslage, die ordentliche Erprobung zu überspringen und den Tiger gleich an die Front zu entsenden. Der Auftrag geht an Major Ulrich Mahler, seines Zeichens gefeierter Kriegsheld und mit allen Wassern gewaschener Panzeroffizier. Ihm werden vier Tiger-Panzer unterstellt, mit denen er im Sommer 1942 an der Ostfront für Furore sorgen soll. Kaum im Einsatzgebiet nahe der Leningrad-Front angekommen, muss Mahler jedoch feststellen, dass die Führung vor Ort vom Panzerkrieg nichts versteht. Der erste Kampfeinsatz des Tiger I droht folglich im Desaster zu enden – bei einem Misserfolg wäre der neue Panzer gescheitert, noch ehe die Serienproduktion begonnen hat. Mahler weiß, was auf dem Spiel steht. Und so fasst er in größter Not einen waghalsigen Entschluss … Fiebern Sie mit, wenn die mächtigen Tiger-Panzer zum ersten Mal gegen russische Stellungen vorgehen, wenn die Ketten mahlen und die 8,8-cm-Kanone unter den Abschüssen erzittert. Mit seinem Kurzroman zeichnet Tom Zola den ersten Kampfeinsatz des vielleicht berühmtesten deutschen Kampfpanzers nach. Die geschilderten Ergebnisse orientieren sich nah am realen ersten Einsatz.

Title: [German] - Die ersten Tiger: Zweiter Weltkrieg, Ostfront 1942 - Der schwere Panzer Tiger I greift zum ersten Mal an Author: Tom Zola Narrator: Max Kleemann Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 57 minutes Release date: August 4, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Tom Zola ist zurück! Mit seinem Kurzroman »Die ersten Tiger« liefert er einen packenden Erlebnisbericht vom ersten Fronteinsatz des berüchtigten deutschen Kampfpanzers Tiger I »57 Tonnen pure Kraft, 8,8-cm-Kampfwagenkanone 36, bis zu 110 mm Panzerstahl. Diese Dame verspeist T-34 auf 2.000 Meter zum Frühstück.« Mit diesen Worten stellt Dr. Dieter Schirmann, Ingenieur bei Henschel & Sohn, im Sommer 1942 den schweren deutschen Tiger I den staunenden Panzermännern vor. Der Krieg gegen die Sowjetunion läuft nun schon seit fast einem Jahr; und die russischen T-34 haben die deutsche Panzerwaffe in Schock versetzt. Abhilfe soll der neue Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger schaffen. Das Oberkommando der Wehrmacht befiehlt aufgrund der prekären Kriegslage, die ordentliche Erprobung zu überspringen und den Tiger gleich an die Front zu entsenden. Der Auftrag geht an Major Ulrich Mahler, seines Zeichens gefeierter Kriegsheld und mit allen Wassern gewaschener Panzeroffizier. Ihm werden vier Tiger-Panzer unterstellt, mit denen er im Sommer 1942 an der Ostfront für Furore sorgen soll. Kaum im Einsatzgebiet nahe der Leningrad-Front angekommen, muss Mahler jedoch feststellen, dass die Führung vor Ort vom Panzerkrieg nichts versteht. Der erste Kampfeinsatz des Tiger I droht folglich im Desaster zu enden – bei einem Misserfolg wäre der neue Panzer gescheitert, noch ehe die Serienproduktion begonnen hat. Mahler weiß, was auf dem Spiel steht. Und so fasst er in größter Not einen waghalsigen Entschluss … Fiebern Sie mit, wenn die mächtigen Tiger-Panzer zum ersten Mal gegen russische Stellungen vorgehen, wenn die Ketten mahlen und die 8,8-cm-Kanone unter den Abschüssen erzittert. Mit seinem Kurzroman zeichnet Tom Zola den ersten Kampfeinsatz des vielleicht berühmtesten deutschen Kampfpanzers nach. Die geschilderten Ergebnisse orientieren sich nah am realen ersten Einsatz.

Aleen Cust has big dreams. And no one―not her family, society, or the law―will stop her. Born in Ireland in 1868 to an aristocratic English family, Aleen knows she is destined to work with animals, even if her family is appalled by the idea of a woman pursuing a veterinary career. Going against their wishes but with the encouragement of the guardian assigned to her upon her father’s death, Aleen attends the New Veterinary College in Edinburgh, enrolling as A. I.

Title: Come Down Somewhere Author: Jennifer L. Wright Narrator: Sarah Zimmerman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 29 minutes Release date: September 6, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: For fans of WWII fiction comes a powerful novel by Jennifer L. Wright about two young women coming of age during the Trinity nuclear bomb test in 1945. Sixteen-year-old Olive Alexander has lived on a ranch in the Jornada del Muerto region of southern New Mexico her entire life. But when World War II begins, the government seizes her family’s land for the construction of a new, top secret Army post. While her mother remains behind, Olive is forced to live in nearby Alamogordo with her grandmother and find a place in a new school. When Jo Hawthorne crosses her path, Olive sees a chance for friendship―until she learns that Jo’s father is the Army sergeant who now occupies her beloved ranch. Already angry about her new reality, Olive pushes Jo away. But as she struggles to make sense of her grandmother’s lapses into the past and increasingly unsettling hints about what’s happening at the ranch, she slowly warms to Jo’s winsome faith and steady attempts at friendship . . . until one devastating day when the sky explodes around them and their lives are torn apart. Seven years later, Jo returns to Alamogordo, still angry and wounded by the betrayals of that fateful day. Determined to put the past behind her once and for all, Jo hunts for answers and begins to realize the truth may be far more complicated than she believed, leading her on a desperate search to find her friend before it’s too late.

It’s impossible to come away unchanged.” —KAWAI STRONG WASHBURN, author of the PEN/Hemingway award-winning Sharks in the Times of Saviors Set in Hilo, Hawai’i, a sweeping saga of tradition, culture, family, history, and connection that unfolds through the lives of three generations of women—a tale of mothers and daughters, dance and destiny. “There’s no running away on an island. Soon enough, you end up where you started.” Hi'i is proud to be a Naupaka, a family renowned for its contributions to hula and her hometown of Hilo, Hawaii, but there’s a lot she doesn’t understand. She’s never met her legendary grandmother and her mother has never revealed the identity of her father. Worse, unspoken divides within her tight-knit community have started to grow, creating fractures whose origins are somehow entangled with her own family history. In hula, Hi'i sees a chance to live up to her name and solidify her place within her family legacy. But in order to win the next Miss Aloha Hula competition, she will have to turn her back on everything she had ever been taught, and maybe even lose the very thing she was fighting for. Told in part in the collective voice of a community fighting for its survival, Hula is a spellbinding debut that offers a rare glimpse into a forgotten kingdom that still exists in the heart of its people.

Title: Hotel Cuba: A Novel Author: Aaron Hamburger Narrator: Marie Hoffman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 50 minutes Release date: May 2, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.75 of Total 4 Ratings of Narrator: 4 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “Deeply moving, compulsively readable, Hotel Cuba chronicles the early twentieth century immigrant experience with a profound understanding and crackling urgency I’ve not previously encountered. I could not put it down and I could not stop thinking about it long after I’d reached its stunning conclusion. In short: You need to read this book. Right now.”—Joanna Rakoff, bestselling author of My Salinger Year “Thick with the humid air of a Havana summer night, rich with mesmerizing detail, Hotel Cuba will grab you and not let you go.”—Dolen Perkins-Valdez, author of Take My Hand, Balm and Wench From the award-winning author of The View from Stalin's Head, a stunning novel about two sheltered Russian Jewish sisters, desperate to get to America to make a new life, who find themselves trapped in the sultry, hedonistic world of 1920s Havana. Fleeing the chaos of World War I and the terror of the Soviet Revolution, practical, sensible Pearl Kahn and her lovestruck, impulsive younger sibling Frieda sail for America to join their sister in New York. But discriminatory new immigration laws bar their entry, and the young women are turned back at Ellis Island. With few options, Pearl and Frieda head for Havana, Cuba, convinced they will find a way to overcome this setback. At first, life in big-city Prohibition-era Havana is overwhelming, like nothing Pearl and Frieda have ever experienced—or could have ever imagined in the rural shtetl where they grew up. As the sisters begin to adjust, their plans for going to America together become complicated. Frieda falls for the not-so-dreamy man of her dreams while Pearl’s life opens up unexpectedly, offering her a taste of freedom and heady romance, and an opportunity to build a future on her own terms. Though to do so, she must confront her past and the shame she has long carried. A heartbreaking, epic family story, Hotel Cuba explores the profound courage of two women displaced from their home who strive to create a new future in an enticing and dangerous world far different from anything they have ever known.

They will show their power. They will not burn. 'Three women's fight for survival in a time of madness' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies Norway, 1662. A dangerous time to be a woman, when even dancing can lead to accusations of witchcraft. After recently widowed Zigri's affair with the local merchant is discovered, she is sent to the fortress at Vardø to be tried as a witch. Zigri's daughter Ingeborg sets off into the wilderness to try to bring her mother back home. Accompanying her on this quest is Maren - herself the daughter of a witch - whose wild nature and unconquerable spirit gives Ingeborg the courage to venture into the unknown, and to risk all she has to save her family.

Title: World Mythology: A Very Short Introduction Author: David A. Leeming Narrator: Andy Ingalls Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 58 minutes Release date: October 27, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The mythologies of the world are collective cultural dreams, and as such should be analyzed first from cultural perspectives. How do myths of the ancient Egyptians or Greeks, for instance, reflect the realities of the Egyptian and Greek cultures? When compared, however, mythologies reveal certain universal themes or motifs that point to larger trans-cultural issues such as the place of the human species in creation or the nature of deity as a concept. World Mythology: A Very Short Introduction is organized around the universal motifs. Creation, the Flood, the Hero Quest, the Trickster/Culture Hero, the Pantheons, the High God, the Great Goddess. Veteran mythology scholar David Leeming examines examples of each motif from a variety of cultures—Greek, Egyptian, Norse, American Indian, African, Polynesian, Jewish, Christian, Hindu—treating them as reflections of the cultures that 'dreamed' them. He compares and analyzes them, exposing their universal significance and creating a 'world mythology.' David A.

Title: [Spanish] - México sediento Author: Francisco Martín Moreno Narrator: Adrian Ogazón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 11 minutes Release date: August 11, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: «El problema de la disponibilidad de agua en la cuenca del valle de México es una verdadera bomba de tiempo para la ciudad más poblada del planeta.» ¿Podemos imaginar que una sequía pudiera hacer estallar en pedazos el pacto federal mexicano porque un estado, por supervivencia, se negara a dar agua al vecino, o a la mismísima capital de la República? Francisco Martín Moreno da la voz de alarma respecto a la posibilidad de una nueva sequía, como las que han azotado al valle de México desde la época prehispánica. Con su prosa vigorosa y su incansable imaginación, nos revela que la sequía fue el gran detonador de la guerra de Independencia, como también lo fue de la Revolución de 1910. Si se aceptara que ésta determinó nuestro pasado, tomaríamos las medidas para evitar daños posteriores y nos adelantaríamos al futuro para impedir que la catástrofe se apodere de nuevo del destino de la nación. Esta novela, repleta de intrigas políticas, erotismo y anticipación ecológica, nos enseña lo que puede ser el México del mañana si no se da un oportuno y firme golpe de timón.

Title: Viking Ventures Author: Ole åsli, Tony Bakkejord Narrator: Nick Denton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 42 minutes Release date: July 18, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: This is the complete Viking Ventures trilogy including 'Viking', 'Outlaw' and 'Free'. History is about to change – in the hands of the unlikeliest of culprits. In 841, Viking ships descend on a village in Northumbria. On board is a terrified Ulv, the youngest of the crew. He is not a Viking, not a warrior, not a fighter. Despised by most of Sigurd Jarl’s hird, he must prove his worth as a raider. Risking his life and honour, he faces a battle with enemies on both sides. Standing on the pier, Marcus watches in horror as the Viking ships appear. This time, he is old enough to fight, side by side with the other men, against the scourge of the North. At least, he hopes he can delay the heathens enough for his sister, Julia, to escape. In a twist of fate, both teenage boys end up hiding in a cellar. From there, their destinies are intertwined as friends and enemies, thrall and master, and brothers in arms. Follow Ulv, Marcus, Julia and the whole band of Viking misfits as they change the course of history. In the epic story of ‘Viking Ventures’, you meet historical figures like Ragnar Lothbrok and Charles the Bald. Witness the occupation of Dublin and the siege of Paris.

History is about to change – in the hands of the unlikeliest of culprits. In 841, Viking ships descend on a village in Northumbria. On board is a terrified Ulv, the youngest of the crew. He is not a Viking, not a warrior, not a fighter. Despised by most of Sigurd Jarl’s hird, he must prove his worth as a raider. Risking his life and honour, he faces a battle with enemies on both sides. Standing on the pier, Marcus watches in horror as the Viking ships appear. This time, he is old enough to fight, side by side with the other men, against the scourge of the North. At least, he hopes he can delay the heathens enough for his sister, Julia, to escape. In a twist of fate, both teenage boys end up hiding in a cellar. From there, their destinies are intertwined as friends and enemies, thrall and master, and brothers in arms. Follow Ulv, Marcus, Julia and the whole band of Viking misfits as they change the course of history. In the epic story of ‘Viking Ventures’, you meet historical figures like Ragnar Lothbrok and Charles the Bald. Witness the occupation of Dublin and the siege of Paris.

Title: Free (The Viking Ventures Trilogy - Book 3) Author: Tony Bakkejord, Ole åsli Narrator: Nick Denton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 51 minutes Release date: July 11, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A wedding turning into a battle, a feast converted to a slaughter, a Viking band on the run. Julia stood barefoot in the mud in front of the doors of the great hall in Dubh Linn. Through the thin veil that covered her face, she could see Princess Ailbi shivering in the cold spring air. It would soon be warm enough. The doors opened slowly inwards by somebody not visible from the outside. Torches fluttered in the gloom inside, and between light and shadows there were figures. Unmoving, waiting. Like a gathering of cats waiting for a sparrow. Ailbi took a hesitant step, then another. She straightened her back and strode into the main hall. As terrified and proud as only a princess can be. Julia followed her. To the left, her Irish companion pulled a foot up from the mud with a squelch. Soon, there were similar noises behind her as ten bridesmaids took their first steps towards the door to Torgils’s great hall. Inside, Julia felt the warmth from the fireplace and the torches. And the cold from the men waiting for them. The enemy. Fear and anticipation sent a shiver through her body. The sudden movement drew many eyes to her. From behind her veil, Julia studied their faces. Closest to her, farthest from the throne, stood half a dozen tall men with broad shoulders, mighty fists, and golden rings and bracelets. They were veteran warriors, probably of Torgils’s hird. The bridesmaids were surrounded. They were bait. The trap was set. 'Free' is the third book in the trilogy 'Viking Ventures'. Follow Ulv, Marcus, Julia and the whole band of Viking misfits as they change the course of history. In the epic story of 'Viking Ventures', you will meet real historical figures like Ragnar Lothbrok and Charles the Bald. You will bear witness to the occupation of Dublin and the siege of Paris.

Title: The Trackers: A Novel Author: Charles Frazier Narrator: Will Patton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 39 minutes Release date: April 11, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.4 of Total 5 Ratings of Narrator: 4 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: From the New York Times bestselling author of Cold Mountain and Varina, a stunning new novel that paints a vivid portrait of life in the Great Depression Hurtling past the downtrodden communities of Depression-era America, painter Val Welch travels westward to the rural town of Dawes, Wyoming. Through a stroke of luck, he’s landed a New Deal assignment to create a mural representing the region for their new Post Office. A wealthy art lover named John Long and his wife Eve have agreed to host Val at their sprawling ranch. Rumors and intrigue surround the couple: Eve left behind an itinerant life riding the rails and singing in a western swing band. Long holds shady political aspirations, but was once a WWI sniper—and his right hand is a mysterious elder cowboy, a vestige of the violent old west. Val quickly finds himself entranced by their lives. One day, Eve flees home with a valuable painting in tow, and Long recruits Val to hit the road with a mission of tracking her down. Journeying from ramshackle Hoovervilles to San Francisco nightclubs to the swamps of Florida, Val's search for Eve narrows, and he soon turns up secrets that could spark formidable changes for all of them. In The Trackers, singular American writer Charles Frazier conjures up the lives of everyday people during an extraordinary period of history that bears uncanny resemblance to our own. With the keen perceptions of humanity and transcendent storytelling that have made him beloved for decades, Frazier has created a powerful and timeless new classic.

Llegan a Nueva York y se instalan en Little Italy, el barrio italiano de la Gran Manzana, donde encuentran trabajo en una fábrica de textiles. Arman allí una nueva vida, compartida con otras mujeres inmigrantes, hasta que un incendio fatal en la fábrica cambiará drásticamente su destino. Dos hermanas huérfanas, que viven en un pequeño poblado en Italia, deciden emigrar a América siguiendo los deseos de su madre. Estamos en los primeros años del siglo XX, cuando la emigración europea al continente americano estaba en pleno apogeo. El plan inicial era viajar a la Argentina, donde las esperaba un tío, pero una confusión con los pasajes de barco hace que terminen llegando a Nueva York. Una vez instaladas en el barrio italiano de la ciudad, Little Italy, Giuseppina consigue trabajo en la cocina de un restaurante y Raffaella en una fábrica de textiles. Pronto traban amistad con tres hermanas, inmigrantes como ellas, y comienzan una nueva vida del otro lado del océano, llena de esperanzas e ilusiones. Pero no todo va a salir como lo imaginaban. La tragedia llama a la puerta y una venganza impensada hace que tengan que huir, esta vez sí con dirección al sur, hacia la Argentina. Las tejedoras de ilusiones es la nueva y esperada novela de Graciela Ramos, que nos ofrece una historia de resiliencia, de amor y de solidaridad en los albores del siglo XX.

But Josette learns of Riel’s hidden agenda — to establish a separate state with his new church at its head — and refuses to help him. Only when the great Gabriel Dumont promises her that he will not let Riel fail does she agree to join the cause. In this raw wilderness on the brink of change, the lives of seven unforgettable characters converge, each one with secrets: Louis Riel and his tortured wife Marguerite; a duplicitous Catholic priest; Gabriel Dumont and his dying wife Madeleine; a Hudson’s Bay Company spy; and the enigmatic Josette Lavoie. As the Dominion Army marches on Batoche, Josette and Gabriel must manage Riel’s escalating religious fanaticism and a growing attraction to each other. Song of Batoche is a timeless story that traces the borderlines of faith and reason, obsession and madness, betrayal and love.

A heartrending story about a young mother’s fight to keep her daughter, and the terrible injustice that tears them apart, by the USA Today bestselling author of The Nature of Fragile Things and The Last Year of the War.   California, 1938—When she loses her parents in an accident, sixteen-year-old Rosanne is taken in by the owners of the vineyard where she has lived her whole life as the vinedresser’s daughter. She moves into Celine and Truman Calvert’s spacious house with a secret, however—Rosie sees colors when she hears sound. She promised her mother she’d never reveal her little-understood ability to anyone, but the weight of her isolation and grief prove too much for her. Driven by her loneliness she not only breaks the vow to her mother, but in a desperate moment lets down her guard and ends up pregnant. Banished by the Calverts, Rosanne believes she is bound for a home for unwed mothers. But she soon finds out she is not going to a home of any kind, but to a place that seeks to forcibly take her baby – and the chance for any future babies – from her. Austria, 1947—After witnessing firsthand Adolf Hitler’s brutal pursuit of hereditary purity—especially with regard to “different children”—Helen Calvert, Truman’s sister, is ready to return to America for good. But when she arrives at her brother’s peaceful vineyard after decades working abroad, she is shocked to learn what really happened nine years earlier to the vinedresser’s daughter, a girl whom Helen had long ago befriended. In her determination to find Rosanne, Helen discovers a shocking American eugenics program—and learns that that while the war had been won in Europe, there are still terrifying battles to be fought at home.

Title: Smoke Wagon Series: #1 of The Morgan Clyde Westerns Author: Brett Cogburn Narrator: Bradford Hastings Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 52 minutes Release date: April 26, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Spur Award winner and bestselling western author Brett Cogburn crafts a post–Civil War railway thriller. Last stop on the train ride to hell. Welcome to Ironhead Station, Indian Territory, where the train tracks end and the real action begins. The hell-on-wheels construction camp is the final destination for hard-drinking sinners, gamblers, and outlaws. And woe to the man who tries to clean it up. Morgan Clyde is a former New York City policeman and Union sharpshooter who lost everything in the Civil War. But he’s still got his guns and his guts. Some folks say he is meaner and tougher than the Devil himself. Which is why the owners of the MK&T Railroad hired Clyde for one hell of a job. They plan to extend the rails through Indian Territory, connecting Missouri and Kansas to Texas … But the ornery citizens of Ironhead Station want to keep things just the way they are. They’ve already killed the first two lawmen who tried to tame their town. Now they’ve put together a welcome wagon to greet Clyde, including one half-mad preacher, one hillbilly assassin, and twenty train-robbing bushwhackers. They’re laying plans to stop the railroad dead in its tracks—along with their new lawman. There’s just two things the folks of Ironhead Station didn’t take into account: you can’t stop the wheels of progress. And you can’t stop a legend like Morgan Clyde.

The Bears Ears area, at the edge of the Navajo Nation, is celebrated for its abundance of early human habitation sites and the discovery of unique fossils which revolutionized the scientific view of how early animals dealt with their changing world. Chee and Manuelito appreciate the area’s scenery and wealth of human and scientific resources, but their visit to this achingly beautiful place is disrupted by a current of unprecedented violence that sweeps them both into danger. Illicit romance, a fossilized jawbone, hints of witchcraft, and a mysterious disappearance during a blizzard add to the peril. It takes all of Manuelito’s and Chee’s experience, skill, and intuition to navigate the threats that arise and see justice served. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Wide Is the Gate followed the 1943 Pulitzer Prize–winning Dragon’s Teeth and introduces Lanny as a secret double agent fighting the Nazis as a supporter of the resistance in Germany. Lanny is living in England with his wife of almost five years, Irma Barnes, the twenty-three-million-dollar heiress. But Lanny is conflicted continuously in his heart and soul for the workers and social justice. He attempts to commit to Irma, to “behave” himself and lead a normal aristocratic life. But foremost he is committed to ending Nazism, Fascism, and the overthrow of the democratically elected Spanish government. Lanny is awakened at the end of Dragon’s Teeth to the oncoming dangers of the Nazis, and involves himself in a double agent role by helping a new friend, Monck.

Many adventures and dangers present themselves as Lanny travels back into Germany as an art expert, eventually dealing directly with Hermann Göring. He uses the proceeds of the confiscated artwork stolen by Göring to help finance the resistance from inside the heart of Naziland.

Title: The Poison Machine Author: Robert J. Lloyd Narrator: Dan Calley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 38 minutes Release date: October 25, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: London, 1679—A year has passed since the attempt to murder King Charles II, but London is still a viper's nest of rumored Catholic conspiracies, and of plots against them in turn. When Harry Hunt—estranged from his mentor Robert Hooke—is summoned to the remote and windswept marshes of Norfolk, he is at first relieved to get away from the place. But in Norfolk, he finds that some Royal workers shoring up a riverbank have made a grim discovery—the skeleton of a dwarf. Harry is able to confirm that the skeleton is that of Captain Jeffrey Hudson, a prominent member of the court once famously given to the Queen in a pie. Except no one knew Hudson was dead, because another man had been impersonating him. The hunt for the impersonator, clearly working as a spy, will take Harry to Paris, another city bedeviled by conspiracies and intrigues, and back, with encounters along the way with a flying man and a cross-dressing swordswoman—and to the uncovering of a plot to kill the Queen and all the Catholic members of her court.

Title: Death on a Deadline Author: Joyce St. Anthony Narrator: Erin Dion Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 46 minutes Release date: November 8, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: As World War II rages in Europe and in the Pacific, the small town of Progress is doing its part for the soldiers in the field with a war bond drive at the annual county fair. Town gossip Ava Dempsey starts a rumor that Clark Gable will be among the participating stars. Instead of Gable, though, the headliner is Freddie Harrison, a B-movie star. When Freddie turns up dead in the dunk tank, Irene Ingram, editor-in-chief of The Progress Herald, starts chasing the real headline. There are plenty of suspects and little evidence. Ava’s sister Angel, who was married to the dead actor, is the most obvious. The couple had argued about his affair with the young starlet Belinda Fox, and Angel was the last person to see Freddie alive. But Irene discovers there’s more than one person who might have wanted Freddie dead. As she draws on her well-honed reporter’s instincts to find the killer, nothing is what it seems in Progress—and now her own deadline could be right around the corner.

As the war grinds on, trapped between two brutal dictatorships, Alexsi betrays both sides in a desperate ploy that succeeds...and fails.

Title: [Spanish] - A orillas del mar. Premio Nobel de Literatura 2021 Author: Abdulrazak Gurnah Narrator: Rafael King, Javier Viñas Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 37 minutes Release date: July 28, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Una conmovedora historia sobre el exilio, el amor y la traición, del Premio Nobel de Literatura 2021. Huyendo de la mítica isla de Zanzíbar, tierra de mercaderes de perfumes y especias acunada por los monzones, Saleh Omar, un comerciante de 65 años, llega al aeropuerto de Gatwick con una caja de caoba llena de incienso y un pasaporte falso. Para comunicarse con él, los servicios sociales recurren a Latif Mahmud, un poeta experto en suajili, profesor y exiliado voluntario que vive apaciblemente en un apartamento de Londres. Cuando los dos hombres se encuentran en una pequeña ciudad junto al mar, una larga historia de amores y traiciones, seducciones y decepción, azarosos desplazamientos y litigios iniciada mucho tiempo atrás empieza a desenmarañarse. La crítica ha dicho... «El modo en que Abdulrazak Gurnah plantea la amistad como una forma de pertenencia es profundo y emocionante.

Huyendo de la mítica isla de Zanzíbar, tierra de mercaderes de perfumes y especias acunada por los monzones, Saleh Omar, un comerciante de 65 años, llega al aeropuerto de Gatwick con una caja de caoba llena de incienso y un pasaporte falso. Para comunicarse con él, los servicios sociales recurren a Latif Mahmud, un poeta experto en suajili, profesor y exiliado voluntario que vive apaciblemente en un apartamento de Londres. Cuando los dos hombres se encuentran en una pequeña ciudad junto al mar, una larga historia de amores y traiciones, seducciones y decepción, azarosos desplazamientos y litigios iniciada mucho tiempo atrás empieza a desenmarañarse.

Title: The Castle Keepers: A Novel Author: J'nell Ciesielski, Rachel Mcmillan, Aimie K. Runyan Narrator: Ann Marie Gideon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 33 minutes Release date: May 2, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “A fascinating story of love’s ability to overcome family curses, scandals, and even war. Told in three parts, this multi-generational tale is wonderfully heartwarming!” —Madeline Martin, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Bookshop in London Leedswick Castle has housed the Alnwick family in the English countryside for generations, despite a family curse determined to destroy their legacy and erase them from history. 1870. After a disastrous dinner at the Astor mansion forces her to flee New York in disgrace, socialite Beatrice Holbrook knows her performance in London must be a triumph. When she catches the eye of Charles Alnwick, one of the town’s most enviably titled bachelors, she prepares to attempt a social coup and become the future Marchioness of Northridge. Then tragedy and scandal strike the Alnwick family, and Beatrice must assume the role of a lifetime: that of her true, brave self. 1917. Artist Elena Hamilton arrives in Northumberland determined to transform a soldier’s wounds into something beautiful. Tobias Alnwick’s parents have commissioned a lifelike mask to help their son return to his former self after battle wounds partially destroyed his face. But Elena doesn’t see a man who needs fixing—she sees a man who needn’t hide. Yet secrets from their past threaten to chase away the peace they’ve found in each other and destroy the future they’re creating. 1945. Alec Alnwick returns home from the war haunted but determined to leave death and destruction behind. With the help of Brigitta Mayr, the brilliant young psychoanalyst whose correspondence was a lifeline during his time on the Western Front, he reconstructs his family’s large estate into a rehabilitation center for similarly wounded soldiers. Alec’s efforts may be the only chance to redeem his family legacy—and break the curse on the Alnwick name—once and for all. Three beloved authors share stories of the Alnwick family through the generations, revealing how love and war can change a place—but only its people can unshackle it from the misdeeds of the past. - Multiple historical timelines following generations of one family - Stand-alone collection of connected stories J'nell Ciesielski, Rachel Mcmillan, Aimie K.

Title: Daughter Dalloway: A Brilliant Spin-off of the Virginia Woolf Classic Author: Emily France Narrator: Hannah Curtis, Sasha Higgins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 48 minutes Release date: March 14, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Perfect for fans of Marie Benedict and Renée Rosen, Daughter Dalloway is both an homage to the Virginia Woolf classic and a brilliant spin-off—the empowering, rebellious coming-of-age story of Mrs. Dalloway’s only child, Elizabeth. London, 1952: Forty-six-year-old Elizabeth Dalloway feels she has failed at most everything in life, especially living up to her mother, the elegant Mrs. Dalloway, an ideal socialite and model of perfection until she disappeared in the summer of 1923—and hasn’t been heard from since. When Elizabeth is handed a medal with a mysterious inscription from her mother to a soldier named Septimus Warren Smith, she’s certain it contains a clue from the past. As she sets out, determined to deliver the medal to its rightful owner, Elizabeth begins to piece together memories of that fateful summer. London, 1923: At seventeen, Elizabeth carouses with the Prince of Wales and sons of American iron barons and decides to join the Bright Young People—a group of bohemians whose antics often land in the tabloids. She is a girl who rebels against the staid social rules of the time, a girl determined to do it all differently than her mother. A girl who doesn’t yet feel like a failure. That summer, Octavia Smith braves the journey from the countryside to London, determined to track down her older brother Septimus who returned from the war but never came home. She falls in with a group of clever city boys who have learned to survive on the streets. When one starts to steal her heart, she must discover whether he is a friend or foe—and whether she can make it in the city on her own. Elizabeth and Octavia are destined to cross paths, and when they do, the truths they unearth will shatter their understanding of the people they love most.

Title: The Library at the Edge of the World: A Novel Series: #1 of Finfarran Peninsula Author: Felicity Hayes-Mccoy Narrator: Marcella Riordan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 11 minutes Release date: April 18, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “Heart-warming . . . reminiscent of Maeve Binchy and Roisin Meaney.” —Irish Examiner In the bestselling tradition of Fannie Flagg and Jenny Colgan comes Felicity Hayes-McCoy’s U.S. debut about a local librarian who must find a way to rebuild her community and her own life in this touching, enchanting novel set on Ireland’s stunning West Coast. As she drives her mobile library van between villages of Ireland’s West Coast, Hanna Casey tries not to think about a lot of things. Like the sophisticated lifestyle she abandoned after finding her English barrister husband in bed with another woman. Or that she’s back in Lissbeg, the rural Irish town she walked away from in her teens, living in the back bedroom of her overbearing mother’s retirement bungalow. Or, worse yet, her nagging fear that, as the local librarian and a prominent figure in the community, her failed marriage and ignominious return have made her a focus of gossip. With her teenage daughter, Jazz, off traveling the world and her relationship with her own mother growing increasingly tense, Hanna is determined to reclaim her independence by restoring a derelict cottage left to her by her great-aunt. But when the threatened closure of the Lissbeg Library puts her personal plans in jeopardy, Hanna finds herself leading a battle to restore the heart and soul of the Finfarran Peninsula’s fragmented community. And she’s about to discover that the neighbors she’d always kept at a distance have come to mean more to her than she ever could have imagined. Told with heart and abundant charm, The Library at the Edge of the World is a joyous story about the meaning of home and the importance of finding a place where you truly belong.

Or that she’s back in Lissbeg, the rural Irish town she walked away from in her teens, living in the back bedroom of her overbearing mother’s retirement bungalow. Or, worse yet, her nagging fear that, as the local librarian and a prominent figure in the community, her failed marriage and ignominious return have made her a focus of gossip. With her teenage daughter, Jazz, off traveling the world and her relationship with her own mother growing increasingly tense, Hanna is determined to reclaim her independence by restoring a derelict cottage left to her by her great-aunt. But when the threatened closure of the Lissbeg Library puts her personal plans in jeopardy, Hanna finds herself leading a battle to restore the heart and soul of the Finfarran Peninsula’s fragmented community. And she’s about to discover that the neighbors she’d always kept at a distance have come to mean more to her than she ever could have imagined. Told with heart and abundant charm, The Library at the Edge of the World is a joyous story about the meaning of home and the importance of finding a place where you truly belong.

Title: [Spanish] - Distintas formas de mirar el agua Author: Julio Llamazares Narrator: Carolina Lapausa, Antonio Alfonso Hernández Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 30 minutes Release date: July 28, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: ¿Puedes regresar a un lugar del que nunca te marchaste? Una novela sobre el destierro, la memoria y la nostalgia de lo perdido. «La gente no sabe muchas veces lo que debajo del agua se oculta ni la historia que se borró para siempre con la demolición del último de los pueblos que aquí existieron. De ahí que algunos exclamen mientras lo contemplan: '¡Qué bonito!'... Y qué triste, añado yo.» En medio de un paisaje hermoso y desolador, la muerte del abuelo reúne a todos los miembros de una familia. Junto al pantano que anegó su hogar hace casi medio siglo y donde reposarán para siempre las cenizas de Domingo, cada uno reflexiona en silencio sobre su relación con él y con los demás, y sobre cómo el destierro marcó la existencia de todos ellos. Desde la abuela a la nieta más pequeña, desde el recuerdo de la aldea que los mayores se vieron obligados a abandonar a las historias y pensamientos de los más jóvenes, esta novela es el relato coral de unas vidas sin vuelta atrás, un caleidoscopio narrativo y teatral al que la superficie del pantano sirve de espejo. No existe una única forma de mirar el agua, pero el sentimiento de desarraigo, de exilio definitivo, ha permeado gota a gota a esta familia, generación tras generación. Tal vez porque ningún lugar duele tanto como aquel al que jamás podrás volver si no es desde el recuerdo o una vez muerto. Pero lo importante es regresar, como Ulises a Ítaca. No importa cómo ni de qué forma. La crítica ha dicho... «Espero que no me ciegue la amistad si les digo que en Distintas formas de mirar el agua está el mejor Llamazares: el de La lluvia amarilla, pero también el de Las lágrimas de San Lorenzo.» Manuel Rodríguez Rivero, Babelia «Llamazares es sobre todo un poeta; de hecho, el ritmo de su escritura en prosa es deudor de esa ambición de asociar las palabras (y la memoria, que es su fuente) con el ritmo; la música es consustancial con su narrativa, y eso le viene de la poesía.» Juan Cruz, El País «Julio Llamazares construye en Distintas formas de mirar el agua una hermosa novela a la altura de los grandes narradores del siglo.» Luis García, Córdoba «Resulta difícil resistirse a este libro en el plano emocional, dada la mucha verdad de los sentimientos que alberga, como hermosa resulta la elegía a los orígenes campesinos o la figura del abuelo, centro del círculo sobre el que gira toda la novela.» ABC Cultural «Una novela cargada de bella y honda polisemia literaria.» Diario de León «Un escritor de su categoría podría redactar los anuncios por palabras de un periódico y seguiría siendo interesante.» Qué Leer Julio Llamazares Thu, 28 Jul 2022 08:28:02 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/612378 thebookvoice.com 3:30:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/612378]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: My Name Is Ona Judge Author: Suzette D.

I was the favored maid of George and Martha Washington, but they deemed me a slave and thought me property, and I hear ten dollars is offered as reward for my capture. Now I must write the truth that I have lived, and tell my story…” Chincoteague, Virginia, present day. Rain soaks Tessa Scott as she runs from her car to the old vine-covered property she has been called to survey. She’s too busy to accept a new job, but doing this favor for the grandmother of her childhood sweetheart delays a painful decision she must make about a future with her controlling boyfriend. But when Tessa finds a tattered journal carefully hidden inside the house’s ancient fireplace, the tragic story of how Ona was ripped from her mother’s arms to live and work in the palatial Mount Vernon, and the heart-shattering betrayal that led her to risk her life and run, has Tessa spellbound. Could discovering this forgotten scandal at the heart of her nation’s history force her to confront her own story? As she races to reach the final page, will anything prepare her for the desperate moment when Ona’s captors find her again? Will it inspire Tessa to take ownership of her own life and set herself free? Suzette D.

Un secreto transmitido de generación en generación. Un misterio a la espera de ser desvelado. Una madre lega en su testamento un misterioso escrito y una sencilla llave de plata al menor de los hermanos. La tradición familiar establece que dichos objetos pasen de madres a hijas, pero ella, al tener únicamente hijos varones, se devana los sesos durante las últimas semanas de su vida para decidir qué hacer con aquellas curiosas menudencias sin valor aparente que habían permanecido en el seno de la familia durante generaciones. Tal vez debería recibirlas Alex, pero siempre ha estado muy unida a Will, y aunque en verdad ama por igual a ambos, ella se aferra al presentimiento de que este último es el destinatario más idóneo. El documento parece tener mucho que decir. Un enigma por descifrar, un legado por desenterrar, un corazón por curar.

Title: Viking (The Viking Ventures Trilogy - Book 1) Author: Tony Bakkejord, Ole åsli Narrator: Nick Denton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 23 minutes Release date: July 12, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.75 of Total 4 Ratings of Narrator: 4.33 of Total 3 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: History is about to change – in the hands of the unlikeliest of culprits. In 841, Viking ships descend on a village in Northumbria. On board is a terrified Ulv, the youngest of the crew. He is not a Viking, not a warrior, not a fighter. Despised by most of Sigurd Jarl’s hird, he must prove his worth as a raider. Risking his life and honour, he faces a battle with enemies on both sides. Standing on the pier, Marcus watches in horror as the Viking ships appear. This time, he is old enough to fight, side by side with the other men, against the scourge of the North. At least, he hopes he can delay the heathens enough for his sister, Julia, to escape. In a twist of fate, both teenage boys end up hiding in a cellar. From there, their destinies are intertwined as friends and enemies, thrall and master, and brothers in arms. Follow Ulv, Marcus, Julia and the whole band of Viking misfits as they change the course of history. In the epic story of ‘Viking Ventures’, you meet historical figures like Ragnar Lothbrok and Charles the Bald. Witness the occupation of Dublin and the siege of Paris. Visit Hedeby and Rouen, and take part in battles, sieges and duels.

Standing on the pier, Marcus watches in horror as the Viking ships appear. This time, he is old enough to fight, side by side with the other men, against the scourge of the North. At least, he hopes he can delay the heathens enough for his sister, Julia, to escape. In a twist of fate, both teenage boys end up hiding in a cellar. From there, their destinies are intertwined as friends and enemies, thrall and master, and brothers in arms. Follow Ulv, Marcus, Julia and the whole band of Viking misfits as they change the course of history. In the epic story of ‘Viking Ventures’, you meet historical figures like Ragnar Lothbrok and Charles the Bald. Witness the occupation of Dublin and the siege of Paris. Visit Hedeby and Rouen, and take part in battles, sieges and duels. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/611672 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/611672]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: A World with No Shore Author: Hélène Gaudy Narrator: Katherine Littrell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 6 minutes Release date: April 12, 2022 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The surprise French bestseller—a brilliant contemporary twist on the historical novel I can’t go with you. Spring 1897: Anna Charlier farewells her fiancé Nils, the explorer, as he sets off to conquer the world. She will endure many years of waiting and the unknown, will marry and move continents, but will never be able to forget. Summer 1930, Svalbard, Norway: a walrus-hunting boat sets sail for White Island, one of the last lands before the North Pole. The melting ice has revealed terrain that is usually inaccessible. As they move across the island, the men discover bodies and the remains of a makeshift camp. It is the solution to a mystery that has hung in the air for thirty-three years: the disappearance in July 1897 of Salomon August Andrée, Knut Frænkel, and Nils Strindberg as they tried to reach the North Pole in a hot air balloon. Among the remains some rolls of negatives are found, and one hundred images are retrieved. Based on these lunar-like black-and-white photographs and the expedition logbook, Hélène Gaudy retraces and reimagines this great adventure that was blown off course, weaving in the painfully beautiful love affair of Nils and Anna. From the conquest of the skies to the exploration of the poles, this haunting and brilliant award-winning novel, set in the ethereal landscape of the Arctic, reflects on the human need to discover, describe, conquer, and ultimately shrink the world. For fans of Anna Funder, Maggie O’Farrell, Eleanor Catton, and W. G. Sebald.

Title: 76 Hours: A Novel of Tarawa Author: Larry Alexander Narrator: John Pirhalla, Brian Nishii Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 48 minutes Release date: March 14, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 4.5 of Total 2 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The gripping historical novel of the invasion of Tarawa by US Marines in World War II, from bestselling author, journalist, and historian Larry Alexander. The island of Tarawa, a tiny spit of sand out in the middle of the Pacific, teemed with five hundred pillboxes filled with artillery pieces and highly motivated Japanese soldiers. Their commanding officer encouraged his troops, saying, “It would take one million men one hundred years” to conquer Tarawa. They were convinced that the Americans would be slaughtered before they ever got ashore. Private Pete “Hardball” Talbot was one of the US Marines tasked with taking the island. A cocky, tough street kid from Philadelphia, Pete joined up to escape his abusive father. In his mind, nothing the Japanese could throw at him could be as bad as what his father dished out. He was angry, and more than willing to take it out on the enemy. But once he climbed over the side and into the landing craft, and once the Japanese artillery and machine guns opened up in defense of the island, Pete knew this was going to be different. It would take all his training, and all his street smarts to stay alive while those around him got blown to bits. Despite Japanese predictions, it took the United States Marines seventy-six hours to take Tarawa. It was a walk in the park … if the park were in the middle of hell itself.

After thirty years as a Cambridge academic, Newton takes up a new post at the Royal Mint in the Tower of London. But the work doesn't stay peaceful: soon he finds himself asking questions within drinking dens of ill-repute, in pursuit of a notorious counterfeiting gang. Can he stop their plans to set off a financial crash that will bring down the Government? In Nemesis, Isaac Newton must contend not only with opponents to his currency plans, but also with a French secret agent who is aiding the theft of England's entire supply of silver. When a wagon of silver is stolen, and his close colleague murdered, Newton must face facts: he's been betrayed. But is he able to protect his country from the same fate? From the writer of McLevy, these are fun, gripping and irresistible tales of thugs and villains, treasure and treachery, and the scientific logic which might just save an entire country...
