Title: [German] - Alle meine Geister (Ungekürzte Lesung) Author: Uwe Timm Narrator: Gert Heidenreich Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 58 minutes Release date: September 7, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In seinem neuen Hörbuch erzählt Uwe Timm von seinen Lehrjahren als Kürschner im Hamburg der Fünfzigerjahre. Von kuriosen Erlebnissen im Beruf und der Welt der Mode, von besonderen Freundschaften und den Büchern, die sein Leben verändert haben. Hamburg 1955 - der noch 14-jährige Uwe wird von seinem Vater, dem Inhaber eines Pelzgeschäfts, in die Kürschnerlehre gegeben. Im Takt der Stechuhren lernt der junge Mann die kreative Präzision, die das heute fast ausgestorbene Handwerk erfordert, schult den Blick für das Material, die Kundinnen, die Tücken und Geheimnisse dieser Kunst. Er lauscht den Geschichten der Kollegen, schließt Freundschaften, bekommt Bücher empfohlen, entdeckt die Stadt und den Jazz. Der Lehrling, der vom Schreiben träumt, liest heimlich im Sortierzimmer Salinger und Camus, begleitet den 'roten Erik' auf die Reeperbahn, erkundet mit dem Kollegen Johnny-Look, reichlich schüchtern noch, die Liebe, wird von Meister Kruse politisch initiiert und streitet sich nun umso intensiver mit dem Vater über die NS-Zeit. Inzwischen ist auf dem Pelzmarkt ein Preiskampf ausgebrochen, das Kürschnergeschäft der Familie floriert nicht mehr, und als der Vater plötzlich an einem Herzinfarkt stirbt, muss der 18-Jährige ein völlig überschuldetes Geschäft sanieren. Die harte Arbeit und die großen Sorgen bringen ihn nicht ab von der Vorstellung eines ganz anderen Lebens. Ein großartiges Hörbuch der Erinnerungen und des Aufbruchs, präzise und poetisch. Ein sprechendes Zeitbild, ein Initiationsroman der Liebe, des Lesens, des Arbeitens und Träumens.

Title: [Belarusian] - У тумане Author: васіль быкаў Narrator: ігар дзянісаў Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 34 minutes Release date: July 26, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Васіль Быкаў пісаў так у мемуарах “Доўгая дарога дадому” пра сваю аповесць “У тумане” (1988), якая стваралася ім у Доме творчасці ў Нідзе: “Сюжэт “Туману” быў гатовы даўно. Ідэя чалавечай безвыходнасьці нязрушна сядзела ў маёй сьвядомасьці і час ад часу дамагалася рэалізацыі. Некаторыя казалі: пэсымізм, фаталізм, розныя іншыя ўпадніцкія ўплывы. Можа, і так. Але колькі ў людзкім жыцьці здараецца канфліктаў – з сабой ці з грамадзтвам, якія разьвязаць немагчыма. Не паддаюцца ніякім разумным высілкам. І ня толькі ў сытуацыі, калі дабро супрацьстаіць злу.

Title: The Wartime Book Club Author: Kate Thompson Narrator: Imogen Church Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 31 minutes Release date: April 9, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Inspired by true events, The Wartime Book Club is an unforgettable story of everyday bravery and resistance, full of romance, drama, and camaraderie and a tribute to the joy of reading and the power of books in our darkest hour. The Isle of Jersey was once a warm and neighborly community, but in 1943, German soldiers patrol the cobbled streets, imposing a harsh rule.   Nazis have ordered Grace La Mottée, the island's only librarian, to destroy books that threaten the new regime. Instead, she hides the stories away in secret. Along with her headstrong best friend, she wants to fight back. So she forms the Wartime Book Club: a lifeline, offering fearful islanders the joy and escapism of reading.   But as the occupation drags on, the women's quiet acts of bravery become more perilous – and more important – than ever before. And when tensions turn to violence, they are forced to face the true, terrible cost of resistance . . .   Based on astonishing real events, The Wartime Book Club is a love letter to the power of books in the darkest of times – as well as a moving page-turner that brings to life the remarkable, untold story of an island at war.

West, the Marquess of Weston, and Sophie, Lady Fitzwilliam Bridewell, have lately been spending a considerable amount of time together. But West and Sophie are not new acquaintances. In fact, years ago, they had once been nearly engaged until West’s almost fatal curricle accident and his meddling father threw them off course. Now recently widowed, Sophie has put aside all thoughts of romance. But when her widowed sister, Alexandra, mentions a fondness for an earl, Sophie realizes that she may be holding her sister back. Alexandra won’t move forward with an engagement until Sophie, too, settles down again, and so Sophie approaches West with a plan. They will announce their engagement and break things off once Alexandra is happily married. It’ll be simple. After all, it’s not like she is going to fall for West a second time, not when Sophie has sworn not to risk her heart again.

Title: The Silence Factory: A Novel Author: Bridget Collins Narrator: Ned Porteous, Bridget Collins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 11 minutes Release date: August 20, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.67 of Total 6 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER ''A delicately woven novel with an utterly original premise, it ensnared me from the very first page.” — Emilia Hart, bestselling author of Weyward From the acclaimed author of the #1 international bestseller The Binding—a captivating story of gothic suspense about a powerful family, the magical and dangerous silk their fortune is built upon, and the exploitative history they are desperately trying to hide. 1820: Sophia Ashmore-Percy reluctantly accompanies her husband James to a remote Greek island, where he searches for rare biological specimens. Once there, however, she sets on her own voyage of discovery—stumbling across the very creature he is looking for, making an unexpected connection with a local woman, and ultimately reconsidering her marriage, life, and own desires. Decades later, audiologist Henry Latimer is sent to the home of industrialist Sir Edward Ashmore-Percy and tasked with curing the man’s young daughter, Philomel, of her deafness. But Henry, eager to escape a troubled past, quickly becomes obsessed with the fascinating nature of Sir Edward’s business: spinning silk with a rare and magical breed of spiders. The extraordinary silk shields sound, offering respite from bustling streets and noisy neighbors. The result is instant tranquility, as wearers experience a soothing calmness. Yet, those within earshot of the outward-facing silk are subjected to eerie murmurs that amplify with proximity. Bystanders suffer the consequences of this unnerving phenomenon, manifesting in physical and mental afflictions ranging from headaches and drowsiness to severe cases of madness. As Henry becomes entangled in the allure of the silk and Sir Edward’s charm, he glimpses a more sinister family history. The closer he ventures into the inner circle of Carthmute House, the more he unravels the horrifying underbelly of the silk business. With Bridget Collins’s signature, stunning prose, The Silence Factory is an equally enthralling and unsettling gothic story about complicity, desire, and corruption—a novel to lose yourself in.

Title: Daughters of Shandong Author: Eve J. Chung Narrator: Yu-Li Alice Shen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 6 minutes Release date: May 7, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.6 of Total 5 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A propulsive, extraordinary novel about a mother and her daughters’ harrowing escape to Taiwan as the Communist revolution sweeps through China, by debut author Eve J. Chung, based on her family story An Instant USA Today Bestseller, a Good Morning America Buzz Pick, and a People Book of the Week! “Throw open the doors of your heart for the lionhearted girls of Chung’s gripping debut . . . they are heroines for the ages.'—People Daughters are the Ang family’s curse. In 1948, civil war ravages the Chinese countryside, but in rural Shandong, the wealthy, landowning Angs are more concerned with their lack of an heir. Hai is the eldest of four girls and spends her days looking after her sisters. Headstrong Di, who is just a year younger, learns to hide in plain sight, and their mother—abused by the family for failing to birth a boy—finds her own small acts of rebellion in the kitchen. As the Communist army closes in on their town, the rest of the prosperous household flees, leaving behind the girls and their mother because they view them as useless mouths to feed. Without an Ang male to punish, the land-seizing cadres choose Hai, as the eldest child, to stand trial for her family’s crimes. She barely survives their brutality. Realizing the worst is yet to come, the women plan their escape. Starving and penniless but resourceful, they forge travel permits and embark on a thousand-mile journey to confront the family that abandoned them. From the countryside to the bustling city of Qingdao, and onward to British Hong Kong and eventually Taiwan, they witness the changing tide of a nation and the plight of multitudes caught in the wake of revolution. But with the loss of their home and the life they’ve known also comes new freedom—to take hold of their fate, to shake free of the bonds of their gender, and to claim their own story. Told in assured, evocative prose, with impeccably drawn characters, Daughters of Shandong is a hopeful, powerful story about the resilience of women in war; the enduring love between mothers, daughters, and sisters; and the sacrifices made to lift up future generations.

When her estranged mother dies, Stella is left with an unusual inheritance: a one-way plane ticket and a note reading “Go to Paris.” Stella is hardly cut out for adventure; a traumatic childhood has kept her confined to the strict routines of her comfort zone. But when her boss encourages her to take time off, Stella resigns herself to honoring her mother’s last wishes. Alone in a foreign city, Stella falls into old habits, living cautiously and frugally. Then she stumbles across a vintage store, where she tries on a fabulous Dior dress.

As Jules introduces Stella to a veritable who’s who of the Paris literary, art, and culinary worlds, she begins to understand what it might mean to live a larger life. As weeks—and many decadent meals—go by, Stella ends up living as a “tumbleweed” at famed bookstore Shakespeare & Company, uncovers a hundred-year-old mystery in a Manet painting, and discovers a passion for food that may be connected to her past. A feast for the senses, this novel is a testament to living deliciously, taking chances, and finding your true home.

Title: Death at Glamis Castle Series: #9 of Victorian Mystery Author: Robin Paige Narrator: Helen Johns Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 9 minutes Release date: October 10, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Lord Charles Sheridan and his American wife, Kate, are on an archaeologist dig, excavating sections of Hadrian's Wall, when they are summoned to Glamis Castle by King Edward. Nestled in the rugged Grampian Mountains, Glamis is the most historic castle in all of Scotland, a place teeming with dark secrets and haunting shadows. While Kate winds her way through the elaborate manor, gaining inspiration for her next Gothic novel, Lord Charles discovers the reason behind their journey. It seems Prince Eddy, heir to the throne until his purported death in 1892, has actually been alive all these years. Deemed unfit to rule, he has been living secretly at Glamis under an assumed name. But now the prince has gone missing—on the very morning the body of one of his servants was found, her throat slashed in a manner eerily reminiscent of the Ripper's. Now, Charles and his clever Kate must find Eddy and clear his name—while keeping his true identity a secret...

Title: [Russian] - Память — это ты Author: альберт бертран бас Narrator: александр гаврилин Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 40 minutes Release date: August 2, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Изучать историю можно всю жизнь, но прожить ее — лишь раз. «Память — это ты» — незабываемое путешествие по истории Испании глазами юного каталонца, который в поисках самого себя становится свидетелем знаменательных событий и изобретений, встречает исторических личностей и загадочных призраков, заводит друзей, влюбляется и просто живет. В литературном дебюте Альберта Бертрана Баса переплетаются реальные события и вымысел, создавая неповторимую литературную панораму в лучших традициях приключенческого романа. «Имя мое — Гомер, и я потерял семью во время войны. В пятнадцать я пешком пересек Пиренеи, отправляясь в изгнание. Я вырос сиротой на улицах Барселоны и касался смерти в темницах 'Уругвая'. Я пил с Хемингуэем, приветствовал Гитлера и занимался любовью в автомобиле Франко. Мне стреляли в спину, и мне стреляли в сердце. Я заставил притихнуть кабаре 'Мельница', меня целовала Прекрасная Дорита. Я сжимал нож Сидящего Быка. Я был там, где умирает ветер, и спал среди утерянных сокровищ. Однажды меня расстреляли. Я знавал гениев и вдохновлял некоторых из них. Я пил допьяна, смеялся до слез, мечтал, воровал и убивал. И я влюблялся. Трижды. В одну и ту же женщину. Вот моя история. Вот моя одиссея». альберт бертран бас Wed, 02 Aug 2023 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/703120 thebookvoice.com 16:40:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/703120]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: This Other Eden Author: Paul Harding Narrator: Edoardo Ballerini Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 9 minutes Release date: August 24, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.5 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 3.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. LONGLISTED FOR THE 2023 BOOKER PRIZE Set at the beginning of the twentieth century and inspired by historical events, This Other Eden tells the story of Apple Island: an enclave off the coast of the United States where waves of castaways - in flight from society and its judgment - have landed and built a home. Benjamin Honey- American, Bantu, Igbo- born enslaved- freed or fled at fifteen- aspiring orchardist, arrived on the island with his Irish wife, Patience, and discovered they could make a life together there. More than a century later, the Honeys' descendants remain, with an eccentric, diverse band of neighbours. Then comes the intrusion of 'civilization': officials determine to 'cleanse' the island, and a missionary schoolteacher selects one light-skinned boy to save. The rest will succumb to the authorities' institutions or cast themselves on the waters in a new Noah's Ark. Full of lyricism and power, Paul Harding's This Other Eden explores the hopes and dreams and resilience of those seen not to fit a world brutally intolerant of difference. 'Masterful . . .

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2023 BOOKER PRIZE Set at the beginning of the twentieth century and inspired by historical events, This Other Eden tells the story of Apple Island: an enclave off the coast of the United States where waves of castaways - in flight from society and its judgment - have landed and built a home. Benjamin Honey- American, Bantu, Igbo- born enslaved- freed or fled at fifteen- aspiring orchardist, arrived on the island with his Irish wife, Patience, and discovered they could make a life together there. More than a century later, the Honeys' descendants remain, with an eccentric, diverse band of neighbours. Then comes the intrusion of 'civilization': officials determine to 'cleanse' the island, and a missionary schoolteacher selects one light-skinned boy to save. The rest will succumb to the authorities' institutions or cast themselves on the waters in a new Noah's Ark. Full of lyricism and power, Paul Harding's This Other Eden explores the hopes and dreams and resilience of those seen not to fit a world brutally intolerant of difference. 'Masterful . . .

Europe, 1940s: Imprisoned in the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria, Spanish fighter and photographer Mateo Baca is ordered to process images of the camp and inmates for a handful of photo books being made for presentation to top Nazi figures. Just five books in total, or so the officials think … Mateo manages to make a secret sixth book and, with the help of a local woman, Lena Lang, it remains hidden until the end of the war. Australia, present day: When thirteen-year-old Hannah Campbell's Yugoslavian grandfather, Nico Antonov, arrives in Australia to visit his family, one of the gifts he brings with him is an intriguing-looking parcel wrapped in calico cloth which Roza, Hannah's mother, quickly hides. Later, Hannah sneaks off in search for the mysterious package. She is horrified to find in it a photo book full of ghastly historical photographs of a terrible place full of people suffering. At first Hannah has little context for what she sees, but over the years as she experiences love, grief and trauma, she understands what these photos came to mean, for herself, her freedom and for those who risked their lives to 'bear witness' to history.? A startling story of clandestine courage and treachery in World War Two, and how we must meet and overcome our pasts to move into our futures.

Title: The Siberia Job Author: Josh Haven Narrator: Rupert Bush Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 40 minutes Release date: August 31, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A thrilling adventure inspired by true events, the impact of which continue to be felt to the present day. After the demise of the Soviet Union, the newly established government privatises its industry by issuing vouchers to all of its citizens, giving them the chance to be shareholders in the country's burgeoning businesses. For those living in abject poverty, the vouchers appear to be little more than pieces of paper. But for Texas businessman John Mills and his Czech companion, Petr Kovac, the chits suggest a lucrative potential. They travel to the furthest, coldest reaches of the country, roving from town to town with suitcases full of cash. The two men quickly learn that the plan has complications - the auctions at which these vouchers are traded for actual shares have been planned at the most remote locations possible to deter outsiders from buying in. And when the Russian mafia and oligarchs catch wind of their successes, the stakes suddenly become deadly... The Siberia Job charts a course through one of the most dramatic periods in recent Russian history, perfect for fans of Martin Cruz Smith, Joseph Kanon and Kathleen Kent. Praise for the author: 'Redefines the conventional action/adventure, chase and escape genre.' Nelson DeMille 'Superb... Smart, fast, twisty and dangerous. Highly recommended.' Lee Child 'A fresh new voice.' Kirkus 'A pleasing romp through James Bond territory.'

It was the single greatest setback of his illustrious career, but it wouldn't be his last mistake or trial by fire. In The Forsaken and the Dead we meet Reeves again. In the 1890s, past his prime, Reeves proceeds through the valleys and shadows of Indian and Oklahoma Territories. Despite his caution and innovations as a lawman and detective, his nation no longer seems a product of his own making—so much like his children and his marriage to Jennie. While a modern world implodes around him and demons from his past continue to haunt his present, he remains resolute in his faith that he can be a steady rider on a pale horse.

Title: The Postcard: A completely gripping and heartbreaking World War 2 historical novel Author: Carly Schabowski Narrator: Tamsin Kennard Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 28 minutes Release date: September 1, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Holding the faded postcard in her trembling hands, Mia begins to read the one story her grandmother could never tell her, revealing a secret that will change her own life forever…   When her beloved grandmother, Ilse, is taken into hospital, Mia drops everything to travel to Germany and care for the woman who raised her. But when her grandmother briefly wakes up and asks for a man called Szymon, Mia is confused. Who is he? And why does her grandmother need to see him so desperately?   Later that night, Mia returns to her grandmother’s apartment to search for clues. She soon discovers a small parcel hidden inside one of Ilse’s suitcases. When she removes the wrapping, she finds a stack of faded postcards neatly bound together, signed with a name that makes her heart stop in her chest: Szymon.   Desperate to find Szymon before it is too late, Mia unearths a story her grandmother never told her: of childhood friendship and heartbreaking young love on the eve of the Second World War, and of a plan to rescue a young man imprisoned by the Nazis. Mia can’t quite believe her grandmother was so brave, and risked so much to save this man’s life… But did she succeed?   As the final pieces of the past come together, Mia realizes that she is about to find out what really happened to her grandmother during the war. But she doesn’t expect to uncover a secret that will change everything…   Based on a true story, this page-turning and emotional wartime novel follows one woman’s brave decision to save the man she loves from the Nazis. An unputdownable and moving story about courage in the face of unimaginable odds, perfect for readers of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Nightingale and The Alice Network.   Praise for Carly Schabowski:   ‘Beautiful and heartbreaking… pulls at the heartstrings… breathtaking in its beauty… Nothing I can say in my review can possibly do the justice this book deserves.

Title: [German] - Die Aufseherin: Nach einer wahren Geschichte Author: Cornelia Lotter Narrator: Janna Ambrosy Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 51 minutes Release date: July 31, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Eigentlich will die junge Pflegerin Lotte nur eine leichtere Arbeit haben, als sie 1942 in der Heil- und Pflegeanstalt Domjüch kündigt. Sie findet sich jedoch als Aufseherin im Frauenkonzentrationslager Ravensbrück wieder. Dort muss sie sich in einen von Grausamkeit und Unmenschlichkeit geprägten Tagesablauf integrieren. Unter den Häftlingen entdeckt sie eine ehemalige Klassenkameradin und versucht, deren hartes Leben zu erleichtern. Doch der Zwiespalt, in den sie sich dadurch begibt, droht sie zu zerreißen. Statt ihrem Kündigungswunsch stattzugegeben, wird sie jedoch nach Lublin ins KZ Majdanek versetzt, wo sie eines der schrecklichsten Massaker in der Zeit der nationalsozialistischen Lager erleben muss. Doch noch im größten Grauen kann die Liebe erblühen. SS-Unterscharführer Ernst Müller wird nach einer Kriegsverletzung nach Majdanek als Aufseher versetzt. Lotte und Ernst heiraten, doch bald schon ist die Frischvermählte wieder allein, weil Ernst zurück an die Front muss. Ein Wiedersehen ist ungewiss. Wegen des Vormarschs der Roten Armee flieht Lotte im April 1944 zusammen mit zehntausenden Häftlingen nach Auschwitz. Wieder holt sie ihre Vergangenheit ein. Wird es ihr gelingen, der jüdischen Cellolehrerin einen Platz im Mädchenorchester zu verschaffen? Lotte begreift allmählich, dass ihre Bemühungen um eine menschliche Behandlung der Häftlinge nicht ausreichen, um sie von der Schuld reinzuwaschen, die auch sie mit ihrem Handeln auf sich geladen hat. Sie befürchtet: Die Abrechnung wird nach dem Ende des Krieges folgen. Das Buch wurde für den Selfpublishing-Buchpreis 2021 nominiert (Longlist) Cornelia Lotter Mon, 31 Jul 2023 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/702709 thebookvoice.com 5:51:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/702709]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Asalto a San Luis Author: Rafael Sánchez Cobo Narrator: Chema Agullo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 21 minutes Release date: August 15, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Año 1780. Para evitar la deshonra familiar por un lío de faldas, Miguel, un joven noble, es enviado a la provincia de Luisiana, en América del Norte. Él se lo tomará como un destierro del que espera regresar pronto a España. Una vez en Nueva Orleans, el gobernador del territorio, Bernardo de Gálvez, amigo de la familia, decide trasladarlo para mantenerlo a salvo ante la proximidad de la guerra contra los ingleses. Su destino será San Luis, una población remota en el interior de la provincia y alejada del frente. Allí, el joven no consigue adaptarse; desprecia la ciudad a pesar del trato de favor que recibe del gobernador de la Alta Luisiana Fernando de Leyba, y decide marcharse. Pero todo cambiará cuando, días antes de irse, reciben la noticia de que una expedición inglesa reforzada con tribus indias se dirige hacia allí… A través de los ojos de los personajes que Miguel va conociendo en aquella tierra indómita, y de sus propias experiencias, en las que más de una vez coqueteará con la muerte, podremos ver cómo se transforma su visión del territorio y la gente que lo habita. Todo ello en el marco de una de las batallas menos conocidas, pero no por eso menos importantes, de la guerra de Independencia americana.

Title: Table for Two: Fictions Author: Amor Towles Narrator: Edoardo Ballerini, J. Smith-Cameron Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 23 minutes Release date: April 2, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.44 of Total 36 Ratings of Narrator: 4.5 of Total 8 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A New York Times Bestseller “This may be Towles’ best book yet. Each tale is as satisfying as a master chef’s main course, filled with drama, wit, erudition and, most of all, heart.” —Los Angeles Times “The book spans the 20th century, bringing characters into tableaus of deceit and desire. Beneath his coifed prose Towles is a master of the shiv, the bait and switch; we see the flash of light before the shock wave strikes, often in the final sentence. . . . Table for Two delivers the kick of a martini served in the Polo Lounge.” – The New York Times Book Review Millions of Amor Towles fans are in for a treat as he shares some of his shorter fiction: six stories based in New York City and a novella set in Golden Age Hollywood. The New York stories, most of which take place around the year 2000, consider the fateful consequences that can spring from brief encounters and the delicate mechanics of compromise that operate at the heart of modern marriages. Told from seven points of view, “Eve in Hollywood” describes how one of Towles’s most beloved characters, the indomitable Evelyn Ross from Rules of Civility, crafts a new future for herself—and others—in a noirish tale that takes us through the movie sets, bungalows, and dive bars of 1930s Los Angeles. Written with his signature wit, humor, and sophistication, Table for Two is another glittering addition to Towles’s canon of stylish and transporting fiction.

For as long as she can remember, Dorothea Graff has lived in service to her mother, Maria Sibyilla Merian, one of the greatest naturalists in Europe. But as she collects insects and colours illustrations for Maria's world-famous publications, Dorothea longs for a life that is truly her own. When Maria becomes entranced by the plant and insect life of Suriname, she is determined to record it for herself, taking Dorothea with her. All the family's savings are ploughed into the dangerous expedition, but greatness is never achieved without sacrifice. The Metamorphosis of the Insects of Suriname will be Maria's masterpiece, but ensuring its legacy – and her own survival – will become her daughter's burden. When offered a chance of happiness, will Dorothea have the courage to take it, and risk everything her mother built? From the jungles of South America to the bustling artists' studios of Amsterdam, The Naturalist of Amsterdam gives voice to the long-ignored women who shaped our understanding of the natural world – both the artists and those who made their work possible.

Title: The Vanishing Point Author: Andrea Hotere Narrator: Victoria Fox Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 0 minutes Release date: October 4, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: London, 1991: Alex Johns, trainee art intern at the Courtauld, believes a hidden secret lies within Diego Velázquez's Las Meninas – one of the most written about paintings of all time. Her own mother died in mysterious circumstances while trying to uncover its secrets and Alex is troubled by memories of her own encounter as a child with the girl in the painting – the Infanta Margarita – who continues to haunt her. Alex must take up her mother's work and find evidence to uncover the truths within the canvas. A treacherous trail through the art world, the church and 17th century Spanish Court via mysterious drawings, letters and cryptic notes has Alex trying to piece together what happened in King Philip's court... But powerful players will do anything to stop these truths coming to light. Madrid, 1656: The Infanta Margarita senses that those around her believe the royal household is cursed. She wonders why her father, the King, is a pale shadow of himself and why the Queen is distressed; what threatens the royal offspring? She struggles to fight for her own destiny as the forces around her seek to marry her off and send her from the home she loves. In the tradition of Tracy Chevalier's Girl With a Pearl Earring and A.S.

It is 1916 and Rasputin has finally been killed by those who have long feared his influence over Tsar Nicholas and Tsarina Alexandra. But for Princess Militza, famed as one of the 'Witches of St Petersburg', and her daughter Nadezhda, life is about to become extremely dangerous. Revolution is bubbling and with it will come the murder of the Romanov imperial family. Now the rest of the court is also on the run, fleeing from the mob. Against this violent and turbulent backdrop, Nadezhda, the witch's daughter, finds in exile and captivity an extraordinary and unlikely love. They say nothing heals like the heart, but as the Red Army marches south and the remnants of the Russian court finds itself trapped in the Crimea, with their backs to the sea, Nadezhda and her beloved Prince Orlov must take the gamble of their lives.

Title: Wolves of Winter: Essex Dogs Trilogy, Book 2 Series: #2 of Essex Dogs Trilogy Author: Dan Jones Narrator: Ben Miles Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 30 minutes Release date: October 12, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The epic, captivating and brutal follow-up to Essex Dogs by Sunday Times bestselling historian, Dan Jones, following the fortunes of ten ordinary soldiers in the early years of the Hundred Years' War. For the Dogs, the war has only just begun. Caught up in the siege of Calais, in the midst of a brutal eleven-month blockade of a small port on the French coast, they are no longer blindly walking into the unknown. But the men still have more questions than answers about what faces them – and why. What are they really fighting for? And why does the king care so much about taking such a small French town? The Dogs aren't paid to ask questions but in their work, they have the means to make people talk. Soon, their journey will reveal who really wants this war to last for a hundred years. And as the battle rages, they hear the first, faint, chesty rattle of a natural disaster that is sweeping towards the Dogs and their world . . . Spanning the siege city built outside Calais' walls, to the pirate ships patrolling the harbour, and into the dark corners of oligarchs' houses, where the deals that shape – and end – lives are made, this captivating and brutal story brings the 1300s effortlessly to life. About money, merchants and the mediaeval 'deep state', this is a must-read for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Conn Iggulden. Praise for the author: 'Oddly joyous – rolling action, fast-paced, a book that draws you in page by page. The way Dan Jones writes enemies reminds me of Cornwell at his best, turning up tension click by click.'

Title: [Portuguese] - O livro do Xadrez Author: Stefan Zweig Narrator: Guilherme Weber Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 33 minutes Release date: July 29, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Viajando de Nova Iorque a Buenos Aires de navio, um grupo de passageiros paga Mirko Czentóvic, campeão mundial de xadrez, para disputar uma partida com eles. O enxadrista não encontra dificuldades para enfrentar seus oponentes amadores, até que surge o misterioso Doutor B, um advogado austríaco de aparência envelhecida que consegue, miraculosamente, calcular lances e estratégias capazes de fazer frente ao arrogante campeão. No meio do mar, os dois travam uma partida feroz, que traz à tona uma história de obsessão e isolamento, marcada pelo nazismo e pela prisão. Stefan Zweig enviou O Livro do Xadrez para seu editor em 1942, poucos dias antes de cometer suicídio em Petrópolis, junto a sua esposa. A novela, a única do autor austríaco a tratar diretamente do tema do nazismo, articula elementos autobiográficos ao enredo. Na leitura de Guilherme Weber, os movimentos do narrador se acendem, e podemos acompanhá-lo se aproximar e afastar dos oponentes, como se estivesse, também ele, envolvido nesse jogo de guerra.

Title: The Trouble With Mrs Montgomery Hurst Author: Katie Lumsden Narrator: Olivia Vinall Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 40 minutes Release date: July 18, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. A single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife... But why would he choose her? Summer 1841. It is marriage season in the county of Wickenshire, and Miss Amelia Ashpoint isn’t sure she can face yet another ball. But now that she has reached the grand age of three-and-twenty, time is (apparently) running out. Her father is anxious to secure her a husband and has set his sights on Mr Montgomery Hurst of Radcliffe Park. Only, Mr Hurst has just announced his engagement to somebody else. To the great consternation of Wickenshire, a community that thrives on gossip, the county’s most eligible bachelor is about to marry not only an unknown stranger – but a widow with three children, odd manners and no ancestry to speak of. Society is appalled and intrigued. Meanwhile, Amelia Ashpoint has no interest in marriage at all. But in this town, it is clear that nobody’s business is their own.

A single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife... But why would he choose her? Summer 1841. It is marriage season in the county of Wickenshire, and Miss Amelia Ashpoint isn’t sure she can face yet another ball. But now that she has reached the grand age of three-and-twenty, time is (apparently) running out. Her father is anxious to secure her a husband and has set his sights on Mr Montgomery Hurst of Radcliffe Park. Only, Mr Hurst has just announced his engagement to somebody else. To the great consternation of Wickenshire, a community that thrives on gossip, the county’s most eligible bachelor is about to marry not only an unknown stranger – but a widow with three children, odd manners and no ancestry to speak of. Society is appalled and intrigued. Meanwhile, Amelia Ashpoint has no interest in marriage at all. But in this town, it is clear that nobody’s business is their own.

I had thought I knew exactly what I wanted and what I didn't. Before the summer was over, all that and much more would change.   Annabel Hayes—born, baptized, and orphaned in the sleepy conservative town of Dayton, Tennessee—is thrilled to find herself falling quickly and deeply in love with George Craig, a sophisticated attorney newly arrived from Knoxville. But before the end of their first year of marriage, their lives are beset by losses. The strain on their relationship is only intensified when John T.

He has power over her. When two enemies strike a dangerous bargain, will they end a war . . . or ignite one? “A thrilling tale of magic and murder, intrigue and betrayal.”—Cassandra Clare, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Sword Catcher Heroes die, cowards live. Daughter of a conquered world, Ruying hates the invaders who descended from the heavens long before she was born and defeated the magic of her people with technologies unlike anything her world had ever seen. Blessed by Death, born with the ability to pull the life right out of mortal bodies, Ruying shouldn’t have to fear these foreign invaders, but she does. Especially because she wants to keep herself and her family safe. When Ruying’s Gift is discovered by an enemy prince, he offers her an impossible deal: If she becomes his private assassin and eliminates his political rivals—whose deaths he swears would be for the good of both their worlds and would protect her people from further brutalization—her family will never starve or suffer harm again. But to accept this bargain, she must use the powers she has always feared, powers that will shave years off her own existence.

Cora Dove and her sisters’ questionable legitimacy has been the lifelong subject of New York’s gossipmongers and a continual stain on their father’s reputation. So when the girls each receive a generous, guilt-induced dowry from their dying grandmother, the sly Mr. Hathaway vows to release their funds only if Cora and her sisters can procure suitable husbands—far from New York. For Cora, England is a fresh start. She has no delusions of love, but a husband who will respect her independence? That’s an earl worth fighting for. Enter: Leopold Brendon, Earl of Devonworth, a no-nonsense member of Parliament whose plan to pass a Public Health bill that would provide clean water to the working class requires the backing of a wealthy wife.  He just never expected to crave Cora’s touch or yearn to hear her thoughts on his campaign—or to discover that his seemingly perfect bride protects so many secrets... But secrets have a way of bubbling to the surface, and Devonworth has a few of his own. With their pasts laid bare and Cora’s budding passion for women’s rights taking a dangerous turn, they’ll learn the true cost of losing their heart to a stranger—and that love is worth any price.

Title: The Garden: A Novel Author: Clare Beams Narrator: Carlotta Brentan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 12 minutes Release date: April 9, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR FROM KIRKUS AND VANITY FAIR 'Genius.'—The New York Times Book Review • “A teeming gothic.”—Vanity Fair • “Few novels of literary fiction are written as well as The Garden.'—The LA Times An eerie, masterful novel about pregnancy as a haunted house and the ways the female body has always been policed and manipulated, from the award-winning author of The Illness Lesson (“A masterpiece” – Elizabeth Gilbert) In 1948, Irene Willard, who’s had five previous miscarriages in a quest to give her beloved husband the child he desperately desires, is now pregnant again. She comes to an isolated house-cum-hospital in the Berkshires, run by a husband-and-wife team of doctors who are pioneering a cure for her condition. Warily, she enlists herself in the efforts of the Doctors Hall to “rectify the maternal environment,” both physical and psychological. In the meantime, she also discovers a long-forgotten walled garden on the spacious grounds, a place imbued with its own powers and pulls. As the doctors’ plans begin to crumble, Irene and her fellow patients make a desperate bid to harness the power of the garden for themselves—and face the unthinkable risks associated with such incalculable rewards.

Title: The Titanic Survivors Book Club: A Novel Author: Timothy Schaffert Narrator: Max Meyers Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 29 minutes Release date: April 2, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the author of The Perfume Thief, a remarkable tale about the life-changing power of books and second chances, following the Titanic librarian who opens a bookshop in Paris where he meets a secret society of survivors. 'Deeply moving and rich with vivid detail . . . Timothy Schaffert is an exquisite storyteller.'—Lara Prescott, New York Times bestselling author of The Secrets We Kept For weeks after the sinking of the Titanic, Yorick spots his own name among the list of those lost at sea. As an apprentice librarian for the White Star Line, his job was to curate the ship’s second-class library. But the day the Titanic set sail he was left stranded at the dock. After the ship’s sinking, Yorick takes this twist of fate as a sign to follow his lifelong dream of owning a bookshop in Paris. Soon after, he receives an invitation to a secret society of survivors where he encounters other ticket holders who didn’t board the ship. Haunted by their good fortune, they decide to form a book society, where they can grapple with their own anxieties through heated discussions of The Awakening or The Picture of Dorian Gray. Of this ragtag group, Yorick finds himself particularly drawn to the glamorous Zinnia and the mysterious Haze, and a tangled triangle of love and friendship forms among them. Yet with the Great War on the horizon and the unexpected death of one of their own, the surviving book club members are left wondering what fate might have in store. Elegant and elegiac, The Titanic Survivors Book Club is a dazzling ode to love, chance, and the transformative power of books to bring people together.

Title: Surgeons' Hall: Jem Flockhart, Book 4 Series: #4 of Jem Flockhart Mysteries Author: E S Thomson Narrator: Rachel Atkins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 41 minutes Release date: August 24, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: What secret grips Corvus Hall? Visiting the Great Exhibition to view the wax anatomical models of the famous but reclusive Dr Silas Strangeway, Jem Flockhart and Will Quartermain find a severed hand, perfectly dissected and laid out amongst the exhibits. Assuming it to be a prank by medical students they return it to Dr Strangeway, who works at Corvus Hall, a private anatomy school run by Dr Alexander Crowe - once one of Edinburgh's most revered anatomists. Jem's persistence reveals that a body does indeed lie in the school's mortuary, minus its right hand. The body has no provenance. More macabre still, its face has been dissected making identification impossible. All is not as it should be at Corvus Hall. Dr Crowe's daughter, Lilith, visits the mortuary in the dead of night. Her twin sisters, Sorrow and Silence - one blind and one deaf - exert a malign influence over the students. Organs, freshly dissected, appear in the anatomical museum. Fear grips lecturers and students, even as something unseen binds them in a bloody pact of silence. 'Gothic. Gory. Glorious . . . E. S. Thompson's Jem Flockhart books are the best I've read in years. Jem is just my kind of heroine: scarred, smart, complex, and unapologetically queer'. - Kirsty Logan, author of The Gloaming E S Thomson Thu, 24 Aug 2023 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/702124 thebookvoice.com 10:41:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/702124]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Only fourteen, Stella Infuriati is the youngest member of her town's resistance network during World War II.

Title: A Plague on Both Your Houses: A Novel in the Shadow of the Russian Mafia Author: Robert Littell Narrator: Ramiz Monsef Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 39 minutes Release date: February 6, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A brand-new novel from New York Times bestselling author Robert Littell, A Plague on Both Your Houses is a thrilling tale of love and war. On Christmas Day, 1991, Mikhail Gorbachev delivered a ten-minute televised speech announcing his resignation as Soviet president. Moments later, with little pomp and less circumstance, the red flag was lowered from its floodlit perch atop the Kremlin, and the Soviet Union ceased to exist. Into the vacuum—before a new democracy had time to put down roots—surged the Russian mafia, supplying what the new state could not: krysha, or “roof”—protection for the privately owned businesses sprouting across the country. Rivalries turned bloody as Moscow’s Jewish mafia battled the Ossete vory v zakone (literally “thieves-in-law”) for control of the city. Caught up in the mayhem, Yulia, only daughter of the Jewish mafia godfather, and Roman, only son of the Ossete mafia godfather, are obliged to navigate the minefield of a star-crossed love affair as they attempt to escape a destiny that appears preordained. A Plague on Both Your Houses is the fictional story of one bloody episode in Moscow’s Great Turf War, when clans fought brutally in the streets and the future of the Russian nation was anything but assured.

Title: The Road through Rushbury Series: #1 of Seasons of Change Author: Martha Keyes Narrator: Lucy Morgans Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 6 minutes Release date: August 17, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: All she needs is a little bit of change. She'll have to fight him for it. Georgiana Paige is on the shelf after eight full Seasons in London and not a single offer of marriage. When the opportunity to act as companion to her spinster aunt presents itself, she jumps at the chance to escape the Marriage Mart and embark on a new adventure. Upon her eventful arrival in the tiny Yorkshire village, though, she finds herself confronted with a man who both piques her interest and provokes her pride. A lowly country vicar, Samuel Derrick would do anything to keep his coarse but idyllic parish the way it is. When change arrives there in the form of multiple new tenants straight from London, he vows to fight against their meddling. He is unprepared, though, for Georgiana Paige and the way she forces herself into the inner workings of the parish. His past experience tells him to keep the woman at arm's length, but his heart—and her determination to stay involved—won't allow for it. As the village fights against the industrialization and poverty sweeping the North, Samuel and Georgiana find themselves working to pull the village together, even as those around them seemed determined to pull it apart. But how can two people who have lived such disparate lives bring anything together when they are fighting against their own desires for change and love?

Title: [Spanish] - Oleum. El aceite de los dioses Author: Jesús Maeso De La Torre Narrator: Benjamín Figueres Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 56 minutes Release date: July 25, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «Extraordinaria, como el divino aceite de los dioses que da título a esta novela, es la espléndida obra de Jesús Maeso». José Calvo Poyato Siglo I d. C. Los sacerdotes de la estirpe de los Eleazar han sido durante generaciones los encargados de proveer el aceite sagrado para el gran Templo de Jerusalén. Ezra ben Fazael Eleazar es un joven escriba, culto en leyes y versado en la elaboración de aceite, perfumes y filtros, y está orgulloso de su estirpe y de la vida que lleva. Hasta que, traicionado por los saduceos dirigidos por Josef ben Caifás, es asaltado en el camino de Jericó y vendido como esclavo. Convertido en Jasón de Séforis, desde Cesarea Marítima, capital de la Judea romana, llegará a Roma donde será comprado por la esposa del senador romano Marco Anneo Séneca. Sus amos, conocedores de sus conocimientos como olearius, le enviarán a su Corduba natal para administrar el inmenso latifundio de la Bética que los ha hecho millonarios. Allí Jasón tiene dos misiones: la pública, que es reorganizar la maltrecha producción de aceite, y la secreta, descubrir las causas de la desaparición de una parte no desdeñable del preciado líquido, que lleva un tiempo sin llegar a Roma… Si supera con éxito estos retos, podrá ser manumitido y alcanzar de nuevo la preciada libertad. Oleum llevará al lector desde la Jerusalén de Poncio Pilatos y el gran Templo donde fariseos y saduceos se enfrentan a muerte, a los grandes olivares de la Bética pasando por Corinto, la fastuosa Roma imperial e incluso la fascinante Alejandría, en una aventura donde, en medio de una trama de asesinatos, esclavitud y hedonismo, personajes como Herodes Agripa y la bella princesa Salomé, Pablo de Tarso y el mismo Jesús de Galilea acompañan en sus desventuras al joven Ezra. «Vuelve la gran novela histórica en este magnífico retablo que nos traslada de la Judea romana a Hispania en una acción trepidante». Juan Eslava Galán «Uno de los grandes de la novela histórica de nuestro país». Qué Leer «Un escritor extremadamente hábil en el manejo de datos y dibujo de personajes». El País «Comanche es un sorprendente western sobre aquellos españoles que defendieron América del Norte de las tropas británicas y francesas». Canal Sur «Una novela magnífica, como todas las suyas, en la que nos describe la vida en las grandes llanuras, los rituales y creencias indígenas, la forma de cazar y de vivir de los aguerridos comanches y la forma de defender la frontera de los no menos aguerridos españoles». El Periódico de Aragón sobre Comanche «Fluida, muy visual, con un lenguaje casi cinematográfico, descriptiva, amena y equilibrada, exenta de paja y bien construida, como corresponde a, quizás, el mejor escritor de novela histórica de España actual».

Title: [Spanish] - La Babilonia, 1580 Author: Susana Martín Gijón Narrator: Paula Iwasaki Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 30 minutes Release date: August 29, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: En el esplendor de Sevilla acecha el terror. Elogiada por Carmen Mola y Alicia Giménez Bartlett, vuelve Susana Martín Gijón, renovando el género negro con un thriller monumental y un secreto que pudo cambiar la Historia «Susana Martín Gijón ha dado un salto. Destaco el gran trabajo de investigación, el estilo pulido, el elenco de personajes y el ritmo inteligente». Lorenzo Silva Año del Señor de 1580. Sevilla vive su momento de máximo esplendor como capital del comercio entre el Nuevo y el Viejo Mundo. La Flota de Indias de Su Majestad está a punto de zarpar cuando la piel arrancada del rostro de una mujer y su cabellera pelirroja aparecen ajustadas como un disfraz macabro al mascarón de proa de la Soberbia, el buque de guerra que abre el convoy. Próxima al barrio portuario del Arenal, en una zona cercada por altos muros, se encuentra La Babilonia, el prostíbulo más cotizado de la Mancebía y donde ejerce Damiana. A pocos metros de allí está el convento de las carmelitas descalzas, donde vive en clausura sor Catalina. Ambas fueron amigas en la infancia y se verán unidas de nuevo a fin de averiguar quién cometió tan brutal asesinato y por qué. Para hacerlo pondrán en peligro sus propias vidas, pero también el secreto mejor guardado de la Corona. La crítica ha dicho: «Una de las grandes escritoras de novela negra española dentro del panorama actual». Andrés González-Barba, ABC «Una de las escritoras más prestigiosas de nuestro país […] que bebe de la obra de Cervantes y Umberto Eco, y que a su vez conecta con el género negro más actual.

[...] Intriga, aventura y emoción. Un thriller histórico impecablemente montado». Gregorio León, Onda Regional de Murcia «Es una veterana del género negro, pero Susana Martín Gijón ha querido ir un paso más allá». Elena López, Telva «Una lectura a la que no le falta ni uno solo de esos elementos tan necesarios para conseguir enganchar al lector: [...] un combo que convierte a La Babilonia, 1580 en una lectura que no te puedes perder». Marisa G., Lecturápolis «Prosa ágil. La afortunada combinación del género negro con el histórico y el de aventuras [...] hacen de La Babilonia, 1580 una entrega plena de atractivos». Manuel Pecellín, Hoy «Respira hondo, lee y.... que Dios te pille confesado. Lo mejor de la novela negra y la histórica se unen en la pluma de Susana Martín Gijón». Luis Zueco «A Martín Gijón podríamos emparentarla con los autores de la novela negra mediterránea, los Camilleri, Márkaris [...]; con el eco aún cercano de Vázquez Montalbán». Javier Morales, Público «Agatha Christie tiene quien le guarde el trono». Laura Blanco, Diario de Sevilla «Incómoda, trepidante, perversa, comprometida: [así es] la literatura de Martín Gijón, que crea novelas policíacas ágiles y con una importante carga de denuncia social».

Title: Trial and Tribulation: A Novel of World War II (Breaking Point Series, Book 4) Author: John Rhodes Narrator: Evie Butcher Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 59 minutes Release date: August 10, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: It is 1943. In the skies above war-torn Europe a savage battle continues as Allied bomber crews rain down fire and destruction on Hitler’s cities and Luftwaffe fighters tear the bombers to pieces. Faced with the destruction, Churchill asks, “Are we barbarians?” Back in England, after the Siege of Malta and continents away from her estranged husband, fighter pilot Johnnie Shaux, strategic military analyst Eleanor Shaux is ordered to develop plans for the systematic destruction of Hitler’s wartime economy. To do so, she must navigate the quicksand of Allied politics and face the relentless male chauvinism of the bureaucratic and military establishments on both sides of the Atlantic—not to mention battling with the qualms of her own conscience. Meanwhile, decorated air combat hero Johnnie Shaux is at work developing ways to make Allied bombing more effective. He’s a survivor in a war in which very few survive, where casualty rates are sixty percent, and the only rule is “kill or be killed.” But he is finding it harder to view enemy soldiers as worthy of killing. When Eleanor discovers that Johnnie is back in England and is flying one last horribly dangerous mission—a mission she recommended—she rushes to await him. Will he survive? If he dies, can she live with her complicity in developing the mission he flew? In the fourth book of the award-winning Breaking Point series, John Rhodes weaves the fictional story of fighter pilot Johnnie Shaux and military strategist Eleanor Shaux into the heartbreaking, inspiring historical fabric of World War II.

Title: Lost Birds: A Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito Novel Series: #9 of A Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito Novel Author: Anne Hillerman Narrator: Jessica Matten Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 48 minutes Release date: April 23, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.6 of Total 5 Ratings of Narrator: 2.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Narrated by Jessica Matten, star of the AMC series DARK WINDS, based on the Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito novels “Anne Hillerman is a star.”—J. A. Jance, New York Times bestselling author From New York Times bestselling author Anne Hillerman, a thrilling and moving chapter in the Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito series involving several emotionally complex cases that will test the detectives in different ways. Joe Leaphorn may be long retired from the Navajo Tribal Police, but his detective skills are still sharp, honed by his work as a private detective. His experience will be essential to solve a compelling new case: finding the birth parents of a woman who was raised by a bilagáana family but believes she is Diné based on one solid clue, an old photograph with a classic Navajo child’s blanket. Leaphorn discovers that his client’s adoption was questionable, and her adoptive family not what they seem. His quest for answers takes him to an old trading post and leads him to a deadly cache of long-buried family secrets. As that case grows more complicated, Leaphorn receives an unexpected call from a person he met decades earlier. Cecil Bowleg’s desperation is clear in his voice, but just as he begins to explain, the call is cut off by an explosion and Cecil disappears. True to his nature, Leaphorn is determined to find the truth even as the situation grows dangerous. Investigation of the explosion falls in part to Officer Bernadette Manuelito, who discovers an unexpected link to Cecil’s missing wife. Bernie also is involved in a troubling investigation of her own: an elderly weaver whose prize-winning sheep have been ruthlessly killed by feral dogs. Exploring the emotionally complex issues of adoption of Indigenous children by non-native parents, Anne Hillerman delivers another thought-provoking, gripping mystery that brings to life the vivid terrain of the American Southwest, its people, and the lore and traditions that make it distinct.

Jance, New York Times bestselling author From New York Times bestselling author Anne Hillerman, a thrilling and moving chapter in the Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito series involving several emotionally complex cases that will test the detectives in different ways. Joe Leaphorn may be long retired from the Navajo Tribal Police, but his detective skills are still sharp, honed by his work as a private detective. His experience will be essential to solve a compelling new case: finding the birth parents of a woman who was raised by a bilagáana family but believes she is Diné based on one solid clue, an old photograph with a classic Navajo child’s blanket. Leaphorn discovers that his client’s adoption was questionable, and her adoptive family not what they seem. His quest for answers takes him to an old trading post and leads him to a deadly cache of long-buried family secrets. As that case grows more complicated, Leaphorn receives an unexpected call from a person he met decades earlier. Cecil Bowleg’s desperation is clear in his voice, but just as he begins to explain, the call is cut off by an explosion and Cecil disappears. True to his nature, Leaphorn is determined to find the truth even as the situation grows dangerous. Investigation of the explosion falls in part to Officer Bernadette Manuelito, who discovers an unexpected link to Cecil’s missing wife. Bernie also is involved in a troubling investigation of her own: an elderly weaver whose prize-winning sheep have been ruthlessly killed by feral dogs. Exploring the emotionally complex issues of adoption of Indigenous children by non-native parents, Anne Hillerman delivers another thought-provoking, gripping mystery that brings to life the vivid terrain of the American Southwest, its people, and the lore and traditions that make it distinct.

Title: A Woman in Time: A Novel Author: Bobi Conn Narrator: Shannon Mcmanus Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 9 minutes Release date: August 30, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A woman challenges the constraints of life in Prohibition-era Appalachia in this sweeping and richly rewarding novel about endurance, survival, and redemption. The McKenzie women, empowered with a formidable history rooted in the foothills of Appalachia, have passed down their folk-healing wisdom through generations. Rosalee, the last living headstrong daughter in Granny McKenzie’s line, soaked up everything she could about the secrets of the forest before a series of tragedies left her alone, without the protection of the women who came before her. The close-knit ties of Rosalee’s childhood are long gone. Now, at her eastern Kentucky farm, she bears a marriage with a volatile bootlegger. She struggles with the demands of motherhood. And her independence is relegated to its “proper place”: under the thumb of men. Her optimism dimming, Rosalee finds solace in the Kentucky woods, a space that holds secret powers of protection from a life Rosalee can no longer control. To the graves of her female ancestors, beside the waters of an enchanting spring, Rosalee returns time and again to consider her future—and discovers a mysterious connection to her past. As Rosalee wrestles with her isolation, with being a wife in an increasingly dangerous marriage, and with being a woman of her time, she must draw on her strength and resilience to survive—and to protect—on her own terms.

Hamou Badi is born in a mountain village with the magical signs of the zouhry on his hands. In Morocco, the zouhry is a figure of legend, a child of both humans and djinns, capable of finding all manner of treasure: lost objects, hidden water. But instead, Hamou finds a body. This unsolved murder instils in Hamou a deep desire for order and justice: he trains as an officer of the law, working for the French in Casablanca. But the city is trapped in the turmoil of the nationalist uprising, and soon he will be forced to choose between all he knows and all he loves...

Der farbenprächtige Historienroman 'Das Weib des Henkers' von Bestseller-Autorin Heidrun HurstStraßburg im Jahr 1350: eine Stadt, zerrissen zwischen leuchtender Hoffnung und dunklem Aberglauben ... Stein um Stein wächst mit dem Bau des Münsters das höchste Bauwerk der Welt empor - die einen sind voller Ehrfurcht, die anderen verfluchen es als Frevel.

Title: Seastar Author: Pamela Jekel Narrator: Gill Mills Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 33 minutes Release date: July 14, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: SEASTAR is a swashbuckling historical novel that chronicles the adventures of red-haired, green-eyed beautiful Anne Bonny, the Pirate Queen. The saga passionately brings to life Anne's rebellious Southern girlhood, her sensual awakening in the arms of a buccaneer, and the courageous mastery of her own ship and crew. Pamela Jekel's sparkling tale transports you to the exotic Charles Town of the precolonial South; to teeming Port Royal, Jamaica, and to the infamous pirate island of New Providence for duels, plundered treasures, and torrid love scenes on palm-fringed cays. America's only female pirate, Anne Bonny was a legend in her own time; her style of living and loving was extraordinary, capturing the imagination of all who knew or heard of her. She was so notorious that her story has become as famous as those of rogues like Blackbeard, Stede Bonnet, and Calico Jack, who ruled the Caribbean Sea during America's most adventurous and colorful age. Anne was one of them, untamed and as unpredictable as the pirates she loved. A sailor, a fighter, a renegade, and a thief, Anne Bonny was a woman beyond compare. The New York Times bestselling author Pamela Jekel brings us '...the rip-roaring real-life adventures of Anne Bonny, pirate queen of the Caribbean. She dresses like a man, fights like a tiger, and lives in constant danger!' Booklist. 'A romantic heroine with guts and integrity', Publishers Weekly. A Literary Guild and Doubleday Book Club Selection, originally published in hardcover and trade fiction by Crown Publishers and paperback by Zebra Books, printed in eight foreign languages, including Braille, Large Print Editions, and now, Kindle, Seastar was a national bestseller, a Waldenbooks bestseller, and is Pamela Jekel's first novel.

Title: [Spanish] - El impío Author: Andrés Spokoiny Narrator: Jaime Collepardo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 19 hours 55 minutes Release date: July 27, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «Solo él, excomulgado por religiosos y científicos, podía flotar sobre un mundo en transición y entender su magnífica complejidad. Hay cosas que únicamente ven quienes viven en el punto ciego de Dios». Se dice que sin él la historia del mundo hubiese sido distinta. Juan de Prado, médico judeoespañol del siglo XVII, es considerado el padre olvidado de la modernidad. Tuvo en su contra dos condiciones: ser de origen judío y fiel creyente de la razón y la ciencia. En una época en que la Inquisición perseguía fervientemente no solo otras doctrinas religiosas, sino también todas aquellas corrientes de pensamiento que no fueran dogmáticas, el universo filosófico de Juan de Prado se consideraba el de un hereje. Tras muchas desventuras en su natal España y otros países europeos, se asentó en Ámsterdam, donde tuvo oportunidad de conocer al gran Baruch Spinoza. Su influencia en el filósofo fue tal que se le atribuye el origen del racionalismo y la heterodoxia religiosa spinozista. Basada en una profunda y rigurosa investigación, El impío es una novela cargada de aventuras, pero también de las grandes preguntas que atañen al ser humano: ¿qué es la fe? ¿Puede el hombre regirse tan solo mediante la razón? ¿Cómo encontrar un sentido de la existencia?l Andrés Spokoiny Thu, 27 Jul 2023 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/699756 thebookvoice.com 19:55:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/699756]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Soldier of Crusade Series: #2 of Crusades Trilogy Author: Jack Ludlow Narrator: David Thorpe Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 17 minutes Release date: August 1, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 1096. The Pope has called for a crusade to free Jerusalem, and half the warriors of Europe have responded. Among them is the Norman, Count Bohemund, one-time enemy of Byzantium. In company with his warrior nephew, Tancred of Lecce, Bohemund must once more cross the Adriatic to the lands of the Byzantine Empire. His first task, pushing back the infidel Turks, calls for an uneasy alliance with old enemy Emperor Alexius. But can the Crusaders trust the wily Emperor? With old tensions arising, and the violent battles of the People's Crusade bringing destruction upon middle Europe, the strength of this reluctant truce and the de Hauteville dynasty itself are truly put to the test. Bohemund is faced once again with the opportunity to gain power, land, and riches for himself, but do the risks of doing so outweigh the rewards?

Title: Batshit Seven Author: Sheung-King Narrator: Derek Kwan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 57 minutes Release date: February 20, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From Governor General's Award-nominated author Sheung-King comes a novel about a millennial living through the Hong Kong protests, as he struggles to make sense of modern life and the parts of himself that just won’t gel. Glen Wu (aka Glue) couldn’t care less about his job. He’s returned to Hong Kong, the city he grew up in, and he’s teaching ESL, just to placate his parents. But he shows up hungover to class, barely stays awake, and prefers to spend his time smoking up until dawn breaks.   As he watches the city he loves fall—the protests, the brutal arrests—life continues around him. So he drinks more, picks more fights with his drug dealer friend, thinks loftier thoughts about the post-colonial condition and Frantz Fanon. The very little he does care about: his sister, who deals with Hong Kong’s demise by getting engaged to a rich immigration consultant; his on-and-off-again relationship with a woman who steals things from him; and memories of someone he once met in Canada....   When the government tightens its grip, language starts to lose all meaning for Glue, and he finds himself pulled into an unsettling venture, ultimately culminating in an act of violence.   Inventive and utterly irresistible, Sheung-King’s ingenious novel encapsulates the anxieties and apathies of the millennial experience. Batshit Seven is an ode to a beloved city, an indictment of the cycles of imperialism, and a reminder of the beautiful things left under the hype of commodified living.

Title: Bad Hombres Series: #6 of Slash and Pecos Author: William W. Johnstone, J.A. Johnstone Narrator: John Mclain Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 34 minutes Release date: September 26, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Slash and Pecos come face-to-face with the baddest hombre they've ever known: a kill-crazy mad man who's paving the road to hell—with bloodlust. He blew into town like a tornado—a mysterious stranger with money to burn and a sadistic streak as wide as the Rio Grande. He says his name is Benson and he's come to invest in the town's future. First, he showers the banks and local businesses with cash. Then, he hires a pair of drunks to fight and get arrested so he can check out the local lawmen. After that, he warms up to a lady of the evening—with deadly results. That's just the beginning. By the time Slash and Pecos return to town after a quick-and-dirty cargo run, Benson has enlisted half the outlaws in the territory for his own private army. The local lawmen are quickly slaughtered and the US marshals are no match. With looters amok and killers festering on every corner, a person would have to be stupid or crazy to try to take the town back . . . Luckily, Slash and Pecos are a little of both. They've been around long enough to see the worst in men—and they know that the best way to stop a very bad hombre . . . is to be even badder. William W. Johnstone, J.A.

Title: [Spanish] - La Corona De Bronce Author: Stefano Vignaroli Narrator: Andre Sosa Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 45 minutes Release date: July 13, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Año 2018: del emblema del Palazzo della Signoria de Jesi desaparece la corona de bronce que desde siempre había estado encima del león rampante, simbolizando la realeza de la ciudad. Un nuevo enigma que resolver para la estudiosa Lucia Balleani que, finalmente después de encontrar el amor en el joven arqueólogo Andrea Franciolini, deberá descubrir junto con él algunas partes desconocidas de la vida de su antepasada Lucia Baldeschi. Así que retrocedemos medio milenio, junto con nuestros dos héroes, para descubrir cómo se vivía entre callejones, plazas y palacios de una espléndida ciudad marquesana, famosa en el mundo, entonces como ahora, por ser la cuna del emperador Federico II. “Pero a ninguno de los dos, alzando la mirada a la parte de arriba del portal y parándose en loa hornacina del león rampante, pudo escapar una peculiaridad, que hizo salir una exclamación de sus bocas, casi al unísono, casi como si fuesen una sola persona: ¡La corona!”Bernardino, el impresor, yace en condiciones desesperadas en una habitación del hospital Santa Lucia. El Cardenal Baldeschi ha muerto de repente y ha dejado vacante el gobierno de la ciudad. ¿Será, finalmente, la joven Lucia Baldeschi la que tomará las riendas del gobierno para evitar que Jesi caiga en las manos de los enemigos que, desde siempre, presionan contra sus puertas? Bien, no se puede dejar el gobierno en manos de cuatro nobles corruptos o, peor, confiarlo al legado pontificio enviado por el Papa. Pero Lucia es una mujer y no es fácil sumir roles de poder, tradicionalmente otorgados a los hombres. Y Andrea, su amor, ¿dónde estará, después de haber escapado del patíbulo y haber desaparecido junto con el Mancino? ¿Volverá a la escena para ayudar a su amada? ¿O controvertidos acontecimientos lo conducirán hacia otras playas? Y recordemos también la historia paralela, la de la estudiosa Lucia Balleani, nuestra contemporánea, que quizás ha encontrado finalmente el amor de su vida, que la llevará de la mano para descubrir junto con el lector nuevos y arcanos secretos. Amor y muerte, esoterismo y razón, bien y mal. Sólo son algunos de los ingredientes que dan ritmo a esta nueva investigación, centrada en la misteriosa desaparición de la corona de bronce, antaño puesta sobre el león rampante del principal palacio jesino, el de la Signoria. Una vez más el pasado se entrelaza con el presente a través de las vivencias paralelas de los protagonistas de nuestros días y de sus homónimos antepasados. La atractiva y orgullosa regente de la república Aesina, Lucia Baldeschi se ve dividida entre sus obligaciones por razón de Estado y el amor por el fugitivo caballero, el valiente condottiero Andrea Franciolini. Entre historia y leyenda, la acción se extiende desde los severos edificios y los oscuros pasadizos secretos de una Jesi subterránea, hasta los espacios abiertos del campo de su Condado, poblados por pastores y monjes de día y animados por ritos mágicos durante los claros de luna. Luego, están las intrigas de palacio, las disputas entre señores y las batallas; aquellas entre los ejércitos y contra los piratas, desde Urbino a Senigallia, hasta algunas entre las más sugestivas gargantas del Appennino. Ambientes y características propias de una época, el Cinquecento1, caracterizado por luces y sombras, dividido entre el culto a la razón y la práctica del esoterismo y del que los personajes de la novela son un fiel reflejo. En el modo de comportarse, así como en las virtudes y en los defectos. Siguiendo sus pasos, entre sensacionales descubrimientos y brillantes intuiciones, los combativos amantes, Lucia y Andrea, de la Jesi del siglo XXI, alcanzarán la verdad bajo el signo de un amor sin tiempo.

Ready to set France ablaze, she parachutes into occupied territory and begins work drilling maquisards in guerrilla warfare, determined to thwart the Nazis at every turn – whatever the cost – and avenge the death of her beloved brother.   Soon both sisters are fighting for their survival – unsure if they’ll live to see each other again.

Nothing – not the bombs, the curfews or the Nazi officers sidling up to her in nightclubs – can stop her from indulging in the temptations of Parisian society as she accompanies their father to glamorous parties.  But rumours are flying through the streets of occupied Paris about their father’s murky business interests, and soon Sophie learns the shocking truth of what’s really happening to their Jewish friends and neighbours. And then tragedy strikes: their beloved brother is arrested for his involvement in the resistance. Devastated and unable to save him, the family is torn apart – and the girls’ lives are changed forever. Broken-hearted, the sisters must each find their own way to fight back. As they too are drawn to the resistance, will Sophie learn to break the rules – risking her own life to save as many innocent children as she can? And Adèle faces her toughest challenge yet when she’s recruited as a special agent for the British. Can she overcome her stubborn nature and use her charms to avenge her brother’s death? One false step and the twins could lose everything they’re fighting for – and each other. A heartbreaking page-turner based on real-life events, this is a devastating story of lives torn apart by war – and of finding the courage to do what is right, even at the darkest of times.

But the death of his eldest son, Henry, has plunged the nation into mourning, as the rumours rise the prince was poisoned.   Andrew Logan’s heard the rumours, but he’s paid them little heed. As one of the King’s Messengers he has enough secrets to guard, including his own. In these perilous times, when the merest suggestion of witchcraft can see someone tortured and hanged, men like Andrew must hide well the fact they were born with the Sight.   He’ll need all his gifts, though, when the king sends Andrew north to find and arrest Sir David Murray, once Prince Henry’s trusted courtier, and bring him a prisoner to London to stand trial before the dreaded Star Chamber.   A story of treachery, betrayal and love…   Praise for The Vanished Days: ‘Fascinating and immersive… I love a novel that deals with the many ways in which people keep their secrets’ DIANA GABALDON ‘A hugely engrossing book and a complete world created’ IAN RANKIN ‘The Vanished Days is an absolute tour de force of historical storytelling, tender and dramatic, gripping and authentic. Kearsley manages effortlessly to balance the epic sweep of the drama with telling moments of gentle characterization, all delivered in pitch-perfect style. I thoroughly enjoyed it: a perfect escape in these dark days’ JANE JOHNSON, author of The Salt Road and The Tenth Gift   ‘An engrossing and deeply romantic novel of Scotland’s Jacobite rebellion’ RACHEL HORE ‘This novel tells of a tender love story set amid the Jacobite rebellion. For readers unfamiliar with the twists and turns of this period of Scottish history, author Kearsley provides a helpful map, along with rich details of the protagonists. Courage in this era lies not in acts of heroic daring, but in steadfast pursuit of truth and justice.

Meirionydd, 1783. Henry Talbot has been dismissed from his post at a prestigious London hospital. The only job he can find is as a physician in the backwaters of Wales where he can't speak the language, belief in myth and magic is rife, and the villagers treat him with bewildering suspicion. When Henry discovers his predecessor died under mysterious circumstances, he is determined to find answers. Linette Tresilian, the unconventional mistress of Plas Helyg, lives a lonely life. Her father is long dead, her mother haunted by demons which keep her locked away in her room, and her cousin treats her with cool disdain - she has had no choice but to become fiercely self-reliant. Linette has always suspected something is not quite right in the village, but it is only through Henry's investigations that the truth about those closest to her will come to light...a truth that will bind hers and Henry's destinies together in ways neither thought possible.

Gabriel Narrator: Gabriele Blum Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 29 minutes Release date: August 18, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Berlin, 1927: Während Marlene nach dem Tod ihres Vaters die Kanzlei übernimmt, kämpfen ihre Mitstreiterinnen weiter für Veränderung. So auch Sophie Maytrott, Abgeordnete der Zentrumspartei, gefangen in einer Ehe mit einem reichen, aber ungeliebten Mann. Mit seinem Geld setzt sie sich für die Kirchen und das Sozialwesen ein, da sie selbst als Kind an Polio erkrankte und von katholischen Nonnen gesundgepflegt wurde. Im feierwütigen Berlin erlebt Sophie die Folgen der allgegenwärtigen Prostitution. Besonders die Kinder von 'gefallenen Frauen', die Geschäfte der Engelmacher und die hohe Selbstmordrate wecken ihren Willen, etwas zu verändern. Unterwegs in den Elendsbezirken trifft sie ihre erste Liebe wieder: einen Priester, seinerzeit Kaplan in dem katholischen Kloster. Der gemeinsame Kampf für die Rechte der Schwächsten bringt die beiden einander nah - doch damit geraten auch Sophies Ehe, ihre gesellschaftliche Position und ihre Reputation als Politikerin in Gefahr.

Gabriel Narrator: Gabriele Blum Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 29 minutes Release date: August 18, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Berlin, 1927: Während Marlene nach dem Tod ihres Vaters die Kanzlei übernimmt, kämpfen ihre Mitstreiterinnen weiter für Veränderung. So auch Sophie Maytrott, Abgeordnete der Zentrumspartei, gefangen in einer Ehe mit einem reichen, aber ungeliebten Mann. Mit seinem Geld setzt sie sich für die Kirchen und das Sozialwesen ein, da sie selbst als Kind an Polio erkrankte und von katholischen Nonnen gesundgepflegt wurde. Im feierwütigen Berlin erlebt Sophie die Folgen der allgegenwärtigen Prostitution. Besonders die Kinder von 'gefallenen Frauen', die Geschäfte der Engelmacher und die hohe Selbstmordrate wecken ihren Willen, etwas zu verändern. Unterwegs in den Elendsbezirken trifft sie ihre erste Liebe wieder: einen Priester, seinerzeit Kaplan in dem katholischen Kloster. Der gemeinsame Kampf für die Rechte der Schwächsten bringt die beiden einander nah - doch damit geraten auch Sophies Ehe, ihre gesellschaftliche Position und ihre Reputation als Politikerin in Gefahr. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/698398 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/698398]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Limits: A novel Author: Nell Freudenberger Narrator: Rebecca Lowman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 51 minutes Release date: April 9, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Narrator: 3 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The most thrilling work yet from the best-selling, prize-winning author of The Newlyweds and Lost and Wanted, a stunning new novel set in French Polynesia and New York City about three characters who undergo massive transformations over the course of a single year “A big-hearted, tightly-plotted novel that bravely takes on our times by looking at the timeless stuff of human intimacy. The Limits is an immersive and powerful book.” –Rumaan Alam, author of Leave the World Behind From Mo’orea, a tiny volcanic island off the coast of Tahiti, a French biologist obsessed with saving Polynesia’s imperiled coral reefs sends her teenage daughter to live with her ex-husband in New York. By the time fifteen-year-old Pia arrives at her father Stephen’s luxury apartment in Manhattan and meets his new, younger wife, Kate, she has been shuttled between her parents’ disparate lives—her father’s consuming work as a surgeon at an overwhelmed New York hospital, her mother’s relentless drive against a ticking ecological clock—for most of her life. Fluent in French, intellectually precocious, moving between cultures with seeming ease, Pia arrives in New York poised for a rebellion, just as COVID sends her and her stepmother together into near total isolation.  A New York City schoolteacher, Kate struggles to connect with a teenager whose capacity for destruction seems exceeded only by her privilege. Even as Kate fails to parent Pia—and questions her own ability to become a mother—one of her sixteen-year-old students is already caring for a toddler full time. Athyna’s love for her nephew, Marcus, is a burden that becomes heavier as she struggles to finish her senior year online. Juggling her manifold responsibilities, Athyna finds herself more and more anxious every time she leaves the house. Just as her fear of what is waiting for her outside her Staten Island community feels insupportable, an incident at home makes her desperate to leave. When their lives collide, Pia and Athyna spiral toward parallel but inescapably different tragedies. Moving from a South Pacific “paradise,” where rage still simmers against the colonial government and its devastating nuclear tests, to the extreme inequalities of twenty-first century New York City, The Limits is an unforgettably moving novel about nation, race, class, and family. Heart-wrenching and humane, a profound work from one of America’s most prodigiously gifted novelists.

Title: [Danish] - Guldgraverne Series: #13 of Australierne Author: Vivian Stuart Narrator: Jesper Bøllehuus Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 10 minutes Release date: August 3, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Den trettende bog i den spændende og dramatiske beretning om Australiens kolonisering – et land skabt af blod, passion og drømme. I 1850'erne er Australien en vildmark, der kun kan tæmmes af stolte mænd og passionerede kvinder som Broomes og Tempests. Det er også et land med en hemmelighed. En hemmelighed, der tiltrækker en ny slags pioner: den guldsøgende. Opdagelsen af guld fører til, at Australien bliver et mekka for mænd som den eventyrlystne og nysgerrige Luke Murphy og for mænd som Jasper Morgan, hvis grådighed overskygger enhver rationel beslutning. Jagten på rigdom og hævn får fatale konsekvenser for indbyggerne, hvis drømme kan sammenbringe nationen eller splitte den ad.

Title: [Russian] - На небе никого Author: ксения букша Narrator: александр феклистов, юлия яблонская, григорий перель, наталия казначеева Format: Abridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 59 minutes Release date: June 22, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «Книга о людях на войне. В первую очередь о людях, и только потом о войне». Война затрагивает все живое. Последствия Второй мировой — это ужасный шрам на теле всего мира, вечное напоминание о катастрофическом прошлом и фантомная боль, отдающая в сердце. Но на пересечении прозаического повествования и исторических сводок образуется новая возможность говорить на темы, обсуждать которые тяжело, но необходимо. 33 истории, составляющие сборник «На небе никого», позволяют взглянуть на войну глазами ее жертв: военных, гражданских, оккупированных, эвакуированных — мужчин и женщин всех возрастов и национальностей. Из реальных воспоминаний, свидетельств, дневников и наблюдений складывается уникальное повествование, формирующее трагический, но правдивый и реалистичный образ военного времени. Да, персонажи Ксении Букши ненастоящие. Но они участники настоящих ситуаций, живущие настоящие жизни и говорящие настоящими голосами. ксения букша Thu, 22 Jun 2023 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/698253 thebookvoice.com 5:59:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/698253]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Blunder: A Novel Author: Mutt-Lon Narrator: Sara Powell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 33 minutes Release date: July 12, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From a bold voice in African fiction comes a satirical and unputdownable reimagining of an overlooked episode in Cameroon’s colonial past. Cameroon, 1929. As colonial powers fight for influence in Africa, French military surgeon Eugène Jamot is dispatched to Cameroon to lead the fight against sleeping sickness there. But despite his humanitarian intentions, the worst comes to pass: seven hundred local villagers are left blind as a result of medical malpractice by a doctor under Jamot’s watch. Damienne Bourdin, a young white woman, ventures to Cameroon to assist in the treatment effort. Reeling from the loss of her child, she’s desperate to redeem herself and save her reputation. But the tides of rebellion are churning in Cameroon, and soon after Damienne’s arrival, she is enlisted in a wild plot to staunch the damage caused by the blunder and forestall tribal warfare. Together with Ndongo, a Pygmy guide, she must cross the country on foot in search of Edoa, a Cameroonian princess and nurse who has gone missing since the medical blunder was discovered. As Damienne races through the Cameroonian forest on a farcical adventure that unsettles her sense of France’s “civilizing mission,” she begins to question her initial sense of who needed saving and who would save the day.

Title: The Sicilian Inheritance: A Novel Author: Jo Piazza Narrator: Carlotta Brentan, Rachel F. Hirsch Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 53 minutes Release date: April 2, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.5 of Total 8 Ratings of Narrator: 4.5 of Total 6 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: NATIONAL BESTSELLER One of the NY Post's Best Beach Reads, an US Weekly pick for 'mystery novels to read on the beach”, a Woman's World 'captivating beach read you won't be able to put down this summer' ('a riveting saga'), an Eater food-filled beach read for your summer vacation ('an appealing mix of romantic escapism, whodunit intrigue, and feminist introspection.') From bestselling author and award-winning journalist Jo Piazza, comes 'A Journey to the Boot of Italy, With Murder, Romance and Ricotta” (The New York Times) about a disputed inheritance and a family secret that some will kill to protect . . . Sara Marsala barely knows who she is anymore after the failure of her business and marriage. On top of that, her beloved great-aunt Rosie passes away, leaving Sara bereft with grief. But Aunt Rosie’s death also opens an escape from her life and a window into the past by way of a plane ticket to Sicily, a deed to a possibly valuable plot of land, and a bombshell family secret. Rosie believes Sara’s great-grandmother Serafina, the family matriarch who was left behind while her husband worked in America, didn’t die of illness as family lore has it . . . she was murdered. Thus begins a twist-filled adventure that takes Sara all over the picturesque Italian countryside as she races to solve a mystery and learn the story of Serafina—a feisty and headstrong young woman in the early 1900s thrust into motherhood in her teens, who fought for a better life not just for herself but for all the women of her small village. Unsurprisingly the more she challenges the status quo, the more she finds herself in danger. As Sara discovers more about Serafina, she also realizes she is coming head-to-head with the same menacing forces that took down her great-grandmother. At once an immersive multigenerational mystery and an ode to the undaunted heroism of everyday women, The Sicilian Inheritance is an atmospheric, page-turning delight.

Title: The Unearthed Author: Lenny Bartulin Narrator: Lewis Fitz-Gerald Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 57 minutes Release date: August 1, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The discovery of decades-old human bones in the Tasmanian wilderness reveals tragic connections between the disparate lives of post-war migrants and local workers in a haunting new novel from the author of Fortune. There are animals in the camouflage of undergrowth; they forage this final, fading night hour. They hear the grunting men and lift their heads, listen, then bound away: the scrub, the bushes shake and wave, signalling their invisible trajectories. After decades-old human bones are discovered in the Tasmanian wilderness, Antonia Kovács returns home with questions for her father, a retired police inspector in Queenstown. Meanwhile, Tom Pilar receives news of an inheritance, from a man he barely remembers, one of his father's friends from the early days, newly arrived in the island and looking for work. Set amidst the harsh terrain of the timber and ore industries of the west coast, The Unearthed is a haunting novel about the past and its quiet but tenacious grip on the present. It reveals the tragic connections between the disparate lives of post-war migrants and local workers, and the fallibility of memory, the illusion of truths and the repercussions on real lives.

But when Isabella first arrived in Boston in 1861, she was twenty years old, newly married to a wealthy trader, and unsure of herself. Puzzled by the frosty reception she received from stuffy blue bloods, she strove to fit in. After two devastating tragedies and rejection from upper-society, Isabella discovered her spirit and cast off expectations. Freed by travel, Isabella explores the world of art, ideas, and letters, meeting such kindred spirits as Henry James and Oscar Wilde. From London and Paris, to Egypt and Asia, she develops a keen eye for paintings and objects, and meets feminists ready to transform nineteenth century thinking in the twentieth century. Isabella becomes an eccentric trailblazer, painted by John Singer Sargent in a portrait of daring décolletage, and fond of such stunts as walking a pair of lions in the Boston Public Garden. The Lioness of Boston is a portrait of what society expected a woman's life to be, shattered by a courageous soul who rebelled and was determined to live on her own terms.

Title: Hidden Cargo: A Novel Author: Robin Lloyd Narrator: Hector Carrillo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 7 minutes Release date: October 17, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Five months after the end of the Civil War, Acting Navy Lieutenant Everett Townsend is awaiting discharge in Key West. The end of the war has left him uncertain about his future and full of regret about the end of his relationship with Emma, the Cuban American daughter of a Havana boarding house owner. His Spanish grandmother—a slave owner who runs a prosperous sugar plantation in the Cuban countryside—is dreaming that Everett will return and take over the family business, a prospect that sickens him. Returning from a routine supply mission from Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas, he and his men are caught in a hurricane and witness a shipwreck in the Marquesas Keys. When they investigate, they discover a locked cargo hold with the dead bodies of Black freedmen. When Townsend reports this unsettling incident to his distracted Naval commander in Key West, he's encouraged to drop the matter. But he can't shake his suspicions that the poor souls from the cargo hold were destined for re-enslavement in the sugar fields of Spanish Cuba. The murder of an American sailor in a Cuban port provides Townsend with a reason to return to Cuba and continue his investigation. A rescue of a Navy veteran leads to more clues and helps convince Townsend to become a government informant operating in the interior of Cuba.

Title: The Swan's Nest: A Novel Author: Laura McNeal Narrator: Nicola Delgado Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 15 minutes Release date: March 12, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A tender and engrossing historical novel about the unlikely love affair between two great 19th-century poets, Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett. On a bleak January day in 1845, a poet who had been confined to her room for four years by recurrent illness received a letter from a writer she secretly idolized but had never seen. “I love your verses with all my heart, dear Miss Barrett,” Robert Browning wrote, “and I love you too.”   Elizabeth Barrett was ecstatic. She was famous for her poetry but completely cut off from the kind of international travel that Browning used to fuel his obscure, unsuccessful, innovative poems, one of which was written from a murderer’s point of view. They began an affectionate correspondence, but Elizabeth kept delaying a visit. What would happen when he saw her in person? What was Robert really like? Could she persuade her father and brothers that he was honorable, even though she had never met his family? And what would happen if she gave in to Robert’s wild proposal that they go to Italy and see if the sun could cure her?   McNeal brilliantly tells the story of how Robert and Elizabeth fell in love with each other’s words and shocked her conservative, close-knit family and the literary world. Sensitively and lyrically written, as rich as the lovers' own poetry, The Swan's Nest will sweep up readers in the triumphant story of two people forced to choose between a safe, stable life and the love they felt for each other.

Title: Song of the Huntress Author: Lucy Holland Narrator: Lucy Holland, Kristin Atherton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 18 hours 47 minutes Release date: March 19, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The acclaimed author of Sistersong transforms the story of Herla and the Wild Hunt into a rich, feminist fantasy in this stunning tale of two great warriors, a war-torn land, and an ancient magic that is slowly awakening. Britain, 60AD. Hoping to save her lover, her land, and her people from the Romans, Herla makes a desperate pact with the king of the Otherworld. But years pass unheeded in his realm, and she escapes to find everyone she loved long dead. Cursed to wield his blade, she becomes Lord of the Hunt. And for centuries, she rides, leading her immortal warriors and reaping wanderers’ souls. Until the night she meets a woman on a bloody battlefield—a Saxon queen with ice-blue eyes. Queen Æthelburg of Wessex is a proven fighter. But when she leads her forces to disaster in battle, her husband’s court turns against her. Yet King Ine needs Æthel more than ever. Something dark and dangerous is at work in the Wessex court. His own brother seeks to usurp him. And their only hope is the magic in Ine’s bloodline that’s lain dormant since ancient days. The moment she and Æthel meet, Herla knows it’s no coincidence. The dead kings are waking. The Otherworld seeks to rise, to bring the people of Britain under its dominion. And as Herla and Æthel grow closer, Herla must find her humanity—and a way to break the curse—before it’s too late.

Alden Narrator: Elisabeth Rodgers Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 20 minutes Release date: March 12, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Fans of Kate Quinn and Kristina McMorris will love this gripping historical novel based on the true story of the woman who used her codebreaking skills to bring down Prohibition gangsters and WWII Nazis, and who ultimately helped found the present-day CIA. Grace Smith has never been one to conform to society’s expectations. She flees small-town Indiana to seek adventure—and finds more than she bargained for when she’s hired by an eccentric millionaire to learn codebreaking. Soon she’s using those skills to help head the government’s fledgling cryptanalysis unit. During Prohibition, Grace takes up the fight against rumrunners—not to mention Al Capone himself.

With wry wit and sheer grit, she forges her own path as a codebreaker, wife, mother. She’s spent a lifetime going up against powerful men and winning.

Grace Smith has never been one to conform to society’s expectations. She flees small-town Indiana to seek adventure—and finds more than she bargained for when she’s hired by an eccentric millionaire to learn codebreaking. Soon she’s using those skills to help head the government’s fledgling cryptanalysis unit. During Prohibition, Grace takes up the fight against rumrunners—not to mention Al Capone himself. And as the country careens from one Great War to another, it’s Grace who must crack the secrets of foreign governments, catch spies, and derail saboteurs . . . before it’s too late. With wry wit and sheer grit, she forges her own path as a codebreaker, wife, mother. She’s spent a lifetime going up against powerful men and winning. But as war rages and the stakes grow impossibly high, Grace faces a truly impossible choice: her family or her country? https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/697373 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/697373]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - La travesía final Author: José Calvo Poyato Narrator: Juan Carlos Albarracín Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 41 minutes Release date: July 5, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «La aventura de Juan Sebastián Elcano después de la primera vuelta al mundo» Elcano recibía, en 1522, el derecho a usar un escudo de armas con el lema «Primus circumdedisti me». Carlos I se lo otorgaba tras culminar la primera circunnavegación a la tierra. Esa gesta, que generó no pocas tensiones con Portugal, lo convirtió en uno de los marinos más respetados del reino. Recompensado también con una generosa pensión, no iba, sin embargo, a quedarse en tierra tan fácilmente. Era un marino de raza y todos sus esfuerzos se encaminaron al apresto de una nueva expedición que, navegando por la ruta abierta hasta las islas de las Especias, las incorporase a los dominios del rey de España. Elcano soñó con ser su capitán general y lo conseguirá… pero, ¿a qué precio? Una nueva novela donde se dan la mano acontecimientos y personajes históricos de una época clave de nuestra historia en la que discurre la vida de Elcano después de haber dado la primera vuelta al mundo. Unos años en los que Carlos I acarició el proyecto de incorporar las islas de las Especias al imperio español y en los que llegó a fundarse, en La Coruña, la Casa de la Contratación de la Especiería. Fue aquel un tiempo en que menudearon los desencuentros con los portugueses y también los acuerdos para cerrar matrimonios reales, y hubo además fuertes tensiones en la corte y guerra contra la Francia de Francisco I, que acabará preso en Madrid. Elcano será testigo de todos estos acontecimientos y protagonista de otros, como las Juntas de Badajoz-Elvas, donde la cartografía, uno de los grandes secretos de Estado, será de gran importancia. «A Calvo Poyato lo avalan las dotes del historiador bien pertrechado (…) y sobre estos cimientos firmes ha levantado (…) una obra que reconstruye con trazos vívidos aquella proeza y, sobre todo, a los personajes que la protagonizaron». Juan Manuel de Prada, XL Semanal «Arrebata desde la primera página y nos hace vivir un episodio apasionante de nuestra historia. Calvo Poyato se revalida como maestro de la novela histórica». JUAN ESLAVA GALÁN «Después de La Ruta Infinita, Calvo Poyato nos vuelve a llevar, de la mano de Juan Sebastián Elcano, a un viaje extraordinario en uno de los momentos más atractivos de nuestra historia».

Title: The Tower: A Novel Author: Flora Carr Narrator: Kristin Atherton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 3 minutes Release date: March 5, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A New Yorker Best Book of the Year • A bold, feminist debut novel, reimagining Mary, Queen of Scots’s darkest hour, when she was held hostage in a remote Scottish castle with a handful of loyal women while plotting a daring escape to reclaim her country and her freedom. 'Such a vivid, visceral read, you feel you’re locked in the tower alongside the characters, acting out a royal family drama. I am moved and impressed.' --Tracy Chevalier, New York Times bestselling author of Girl with a Pearl Earring Scotland, 1567. A pregnant Mary, Queen of Scots is dragged out of her palace by rebel lords and imprisoned in the isolated Lochleven Castle, an ancient fortress surrounded by a vast lake. Her infant son and heir, James, has been captured by her enemies.  Accompanying Mary are two inconspicuous serving women: observant, ambitious Jane and romantic, quick-tempered Cuckoo, who endeavor to keep their mercurial mistress company while sharing the space of a claustrophobic room over the course of their eleven-month forced stay. Their hosts want them dead. They'll settle for Mary's abdication. After Mary reluctantly surrenders her throne, her closest friend, the reserved, devoted Lady Seton, is permitted to join the captive women. Against the odds, as they hatch a perilous getaway plan, the four women form a bond that transcends class and religion, and for Jane and Seton, becomes something even deeper. At the center of it all is Mary--calculating, charming, brave, and unbowed. Flora Carr's thrilling, feverish debut is a celebration of resilience, a meditation on the meaning of power, and a testament to the unshakeable strength of female friendship, starring one of history's most charismatic leaders.

While many narrative set pieces of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn remain in place (floods and storms, stumbling across both unexpected death and unexpected treasure in the myriad stopping points along the river’s banks, encountering the scam artists posing as the Duke and Dauphin…), Jim’s agency, intelligence and compassion are shown in a radically new light. Brimming with the electrifying humor and lacerating observations that have made Everett a “literary icon” (Oprah Daily), and one of the most decorated writers of our lifetime, James is destined to be a cornerstone of twenty-first century American literature.

Title: Becoming Madam Secretary Author: Stephanie Dray Narrator: Cassandra Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 57 minutes Release date: March 12, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.38 of Total 8 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 3 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: She took on titans, battled generals, and changed the world as we know it… New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Dray returns with a captivating and dramatic new novel about an American heroine Frances Perkins. Raised on tales of her revolutionary ancestors, Frances Perkins arrives in New York City at the turn of the century, armed with her trusty parasol and an unyielding determination to make a difference. When she’s not working with children in the crowded tenements in Hell’s Kitchen, Frances throws herself into the social scene in Greenwich Village, befriending an eclectic group of politicians, artists, and activists, including the millionaire socialite Mary Harriman Rumsey, the flirtatious budding author Sinclair Lewis, and the brilliant but troubled reformer Paul Wilson, with whom she falls deeply in love. But when Frances meets a young lawyer named Franklin Delano Roosevelt at a tea dance, sparks fly in all the wrong directions. She thinks he’s a rich, arrogant dilettante who gets by on a handsome face and a famous name. He thinks she’s a priggish bluestocking and insufferable do-gooder. Neither knows it yet, but over the next twenty years, they will form a historic partnership that will carry them both to the White House. Frances is destined to rise in a political world dominated by men, facing down the Great Depression as FDR’s most trusted lieutenant—even as she struggles to balance the demands of a public career with marriage and motherhood. And when vicious political attacks mount and personal tragedies threaten to derail her ambitions, she must decide what she’s willing to do—and what she’s willing to sacrifice—to save a nation.

Morris Narrator: Ell Potter, Angus King Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 56 minutes Release date: March 12, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A USA Today Bestseller! A propulsive and piercing debut, set ten years before the events of Shakespeare’s historic play, about the ambition, power, and fate that define one of literature’s most notorious figures: Lady Macbeth. Scotland, the 11th Century. Born in a noble household and granddaughter of a forgotten Scottish king, a young girl carries the guilt of her mother’s death and the weight of an unknowable prophecy. When she is married, at fifteen, to the Mormaer of Moray, she experiences firsthand the violence of a sadistic husband and a kingdom constantly at war. To survive with her young son in a superstitious realm, she must rely on her own cunning and wit, especially when her husband’s downfall inadvertently sets them free. Suspicious of the dark devices that may have led to his father’s death, her son watches as his mother falls in love with the enigmatic thane Macbeth. Now a woman of stature, Lady Macbeth confronts a world of masculine power and secures the protection of her family. But the coronation of King Duncan and the political maneuvering of her cousin Macduff set her on a tragic course, one where her own success might mean embracing the very curse that haunts her and risking the child she loves.

Hill Narrator: Hope Newhouse, Stacy Gonzalez, Amy Landon, Gabra Zackman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 44 minutes Release date: March 19, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In Victorian-era Louisville, the Home for Friendless Women is run by benevolent benefactors with one mission: to reform the fallen women who live there into pious mothers and wives through religious lessons and hard work. For Ruth, a college student who’s expelled after a campus sexual assault, the Home is a purgatory to endure before she can get her life back. For Belle, a queer sex worker who exchanged her bed at a brothel for one in the Home, it’s a safe place to rest her feet until she can track down her missing lover. And for Minnie, the daughter of the religious couple who founded the charity, the Home is her mother’s idea of a cautionary tale. But as Minnie prepares for the Home’s silver anniversary party, she finds herself questioning the true cost of good intentions—and grappling with a terrible secret that has the power to unravel the Home entirely.

'For the sake of knowing, of understanding, Wandering Stars blew my heart into a thousand pieces and put it all back together again.

A generation later, Star’s son, Charles, is sent to the school, where he is brutalized by the man who was once his father’s jailer.

Title: [Spanish] - La jaula de los onas Author: Carlos Gamerro Narrator: Mario De Candia Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 15 minutes Release date: July 13, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: La increíble aventura de Kalapakte, un indígena selk'nam (ona) secuestrado junto con su familia y exhibido en la Exposición Universal de París en 1889, quien tras años de peregrinaciones por la variada geografía de Europa, América del Norte y del Sur logra regresar por sus propios medios a su Tierra del Fuego natal. Esta nueva novela significa la incorporación al sello Alfaguara de Carlos Gamerro, uno de los escritores más importantes de la lengua castellana en la actualidad. Con extremado rigor, frecuentes momentos de humor y un variadísimo repertorio de recursos narrativos y estilísticos, Gamerro nos ofrece una novela monumental, hiperbólica, que revive el avasallamiento de las culturas americanas por la cultura europea, revela el racismo constitutivo de todas las formas de saber del siglo XIX y buena parte del XX, y reverbera con el choque de las culturas supuestamente 'bárbaras' de América y las supuestamente 'civilizadas' de Europa. La crítica ha dicho: «Las Islas, con la capacidad explosiva de su narración, se asegura lo que las otras novelas no tienen: un lugar entre la mejor narrativa argentina de estos años.» Sergio Olguín, La Nación «Toda la historia del país profetiza Malvinas (Lugones y la salmodia nacionalista, el peronismo, el Proceso), lo que vendrá es consecuencia de Malvinas: la trama de intrigas de una democracia dudosa, el sistema de terror del capitalismo salvaje.» Paola Cortés Rocca, Tres puntos, sobre Las Islas «El poder de invención de Gamerro hace que el lector siga leyendo, ansioso por saber qué es lo que viene a continuación.» Nick Caistor, The Guardian, sobre Las islas «Las islas no es una novela complaciente, sino que ofrece mal gusto a conciencia, usando la fuerza negativa de los tabús, de la escatología, de lo profano y de la representación de la violencia.» Martín Schifino, Independent «Su inteligente y cómica novela sobre un empresario convencional argentino, atrapado en la política de la guerrilla, es implacablemente optimista en su sátira mordaz.» Kirkus Reviews, sobre Las islas «Gamerro tiene una facilidad enorme para plantar ese detalle perfecto que define un ámbito, o para cambiar el registro de las voces sin caer nunca en un estereotipo; pero lo más importante de estos cuentos es que están impregnados de nostalgia, espontaneidad y una rara belleza, mucho más conmovedoras que cualquier virtuosismo.» Mariana Enríquez, 'Radar Libros' sobre El libro de los afectos raros «La literatura de Gamerro se asienta sobre tres pilares fundamentales: tramas magistralmente urdidas, personajes que sin resignar profundidad rozan todo el tiempo lo pop y una mirada entre crítica y humorística sobre la realidad nacional.» Federico Falco, Diario Perfil Carlos Gamerro Thu, 13 Jul 2023 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/697137 thebookvoice.com 15:15:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/697137]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Oceans and the Stars: A Sea Story, A War Story, A Love Story; The Seven Battles and Mutiny of Athena, Patrol Coastal Ship 15 Author: Mark Helprin Narrator: Traber Burns Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 36 minutes Release date: October 3, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.6 of Total 10 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Mark Helprin, New York Times bestselling author of Winter’s Tale and A Soldier of the Great War, returns with a fast-paced, beautifully written novel about the majesty of the sea; a life dedicated to duty, honor, and country; and the gift of falling in love. A Navy captain near the end of a decorated career, Stephen Rensselaer is disciplined, intelligent, and determined always to do what’s right. In defending the development of a new variant of warship, he makes an enemy of the president of the United States, who assigns him to command the doomed line’s only prototype­––Athena, Patrol Coastal 15­­––with the intent to humiliate a man who should have been an admiral. Rather than resign, Rensselaer takes the new assignment in stride, and while supervising Athena’s fitting out in New Orleans, encounters a brilliant lawyer, Katy Farrar, with whom he falls in last-chance love. Soon thereafter, he is deployed on a mission that subjects his integrity, morality, and skill to the ultimate test and which ensures that Athena will live forever in the annals of the Navy. As in the Odyssey, Katy is the force that keeps him alive and the beacon that lights the way home through seven battles, mutiny, and court martial. In classic literary form, an enthralling new novel that extolls the virtues of living by the laws of conscience, decency, and sacrifice, The Oceans and the Stars is nothing short of a masterpiece.

Title: The British Booksellers Author: Kristy Cambron Narrator: Barrie Kreinik Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 18 minutes Release date: April 9, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Inspired by real accounts of the Forgotten Blitz bombings, The British Booksellers highlights the courage of those whose lives were forever changed by war—and the stories that bind us in the fight for what matters most. A tenant farmer’s son had no business daring to dream of a future with an earl’s daughter, but that couldn’t keep Amos Darby from his secret friendship with Charlotte Terrington…until the reality of the Great War sobered youthful dreams. Now decades later, he bears the brutal scars of battles fought in the trenches and their futures that were stolen away. His return home doesn’t come with tender reunions, but with the hollow fulfillment of opening a bookshop on his own and retreating as a recluse within its walls. When the future Earl of Harcourt chose Charlotte to be his wife, she knew she was destined for a loveless match. Though her heart had chosen another long ago, she pledges her future even as her husband goes to war. Twenty-five years later, Charlotte remains a war widow who divides her days between her late husband’s declining estate and operating a quaint Coventry bookshop—Eden Books, lovingly named after her grown daughter. And Amos is nothing more than the rival bookseller across the lane. As war with Hitler looms, Eden is determined to preserve her father’s legacy. So when an American solicitor arrives threatening a lawsuit that could destroy everything they’ve worked so hard to preserve, mother and daughter prepare to fight back. But with devastation wrought by the Luftwaffe’s local blitz terrorizing the skies, battling bookshops—and lost loves, Amos and Charlotte—must put aside their differences and fight together to help Coventry survive. From deep in the trenches of the Great War to the storied English countryside and the devastating Coventry Blitz of World War II, The British Booksellers explores the unbreakable bonds that unite us through love, loss, and the enduring solace that can be found between the pages of a book. - Split timeline: WWI and WWII - Stand-alone novel - Book length: 118,000 words - Includes discussion questions for book clubs Kristy Cambron Tue, 09 Apr 2024 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/696733 thebookvoice.com 11:18:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/696733]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Berlin Letters: A Cold War Novel Author: Katherine Reay Narrator: Ann Marie Gideon, P. J. Ochlan, Saskia Maarleveld Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 48 minutes Release date: March 5, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 'Fans of codebreakers, spies, and Cold War dramas will be entrapped by Reay's tale of courage, love, and honor set against the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall.' - Booklist Starred Review Bestselling author Katherine Reay returns with an unforgettable tale of the Cold War and a CIA code breaker who risks everything to free her father from an East German prison. From the time she was a young girl, Luisa Voekler has loved solving puzzles and cracking codes. Brilliant and logical, she's expected to quickly climb the career ladder at the CIA. But while her coworkers have moved on to thrilling Cold War assignments--especially in the exhilarating era of the late 1980s--Luisa's work remains stuck in the past decoding messages from World War II. Journalist Haris Voekler grew up a proud East Berliner. But as his eyes open to the realities of postwar East Germany, he realizes that the Soviet promises of a better future are not coming to fruition. After the Berlin Wall goes up, Haris finds himself separated from his young daughter and all alone after his wife dies. There's only one way to reach his family--by sending coded letters to his father-in-law who lives on the other side of the Iron Curtain. When Luisa Voekler discovers a secret cache of letters written by the father she has long presumed dead, she learns the truth about her grandfather's work, her father's identity, and why she has never progressed in her career. With little more than a rudimentary plan and hope, she journeys to Berlin and risks everything to free her father and get him out of East Berlin alive. As Luisa and Haris take turns telling their stories, events speed toward one of the twentieth century's most dramatic moments--the fall of the Berlin Wall and that night's promise of freedom, truth, and reconciliation for those who lived, for twenty-eight years, behind the bleak shadow of the Iron Curtain's most iconic symbol. - A Cold War novel that takes readers to the heart of Berlin to witness both the early and final days of the Berlin Wall - Stand-alone novel - Book length: approximately 107,000 words Katherine Reay Tue, 05 Mar 2024 02:49:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/696712 thebookvoice.com 11:48:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/696712]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Meet the queen of Happy Land. Transformative and breathtakingly honest, The American Queen is based on actual events that occurred between 1865 - 1889 and shares the unsung history of a Black woman who built a kingdom in Appalachia as a refuge for the courageous people who dared to dream of a different way of life. Over the twenty-four years she was enslaved on the Montgomery Plantation, Louella learned to feel one thing: hate. Hate for the man who sold her mother. Hate for the overseer who left her daddy to hang from a noose. Hate so powerful there's no room in her heart for love, not even for the honorable Reverend William, whom she likes and respects enough to marry. But when William finally listens to Louella's pleas and leads the formerly enslaved people off the plantation, Louella begins to replace her hate with hope. Hope that they will find a place where they can live free from fear. Hope that despite her many unanswered prayers, she can learn to trust for new miracles. Soon, William and Louella become the appointed king and queen of their self-proclaimed Kingdom of the Happy Land. And though they are still surrounded by opposition, they continue to share a message of joy and goodness--and fight for the freedom and dignity of all. The American Queen weaves together themes of love, hate, hope, trust, and resilience in the face of great turmoil. With every turn of the page, you will be transported to a pivotal period in American history, where oppressed people become extraordinary heroes.

Title: The Midwife's Child Author: Amanda Lees Narrator: Amanda Lees Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 7 minutes Release date: October 3, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Auschwitz, January 1945. Forced on a terrifying death march from the notorious concentration camp, midwife and former secret agent Maggie must find the strength to protect the tiny baby girl her dying friend left in her care. Only weeks old, little Leah is in terrible danger—from the Nazis, from the freezing weather, from starvation. So when a company of soldiers led by brave Captain Jamie Maclean rescues the marching women, Maggie’s relief knows no bounds. But it soon turns to astonishment when Jamie vows to help Maggie reunite Leah with her father—he has fallen in love with Maggie and will do everything in his power to assist her. Maggie can’t yet trust her own budding feelings. But she accepts Jamie’s help and slowly starts to dream of a life together—until Maggie gets the news every survivor dreads. The most fearsome Nazi of all, Dr. Mengele, the terror of Auschwitz, has escaped—and she may be the only person strong enough to track him down. Looking at baby Leah’s trusting eyes, Maggie’s heart is torn. But she has to find Mengele and bring him to justice. Can she succeed on the most terrifying mission of her life when so many others have failed? And if she does, will she find her way back home to the ones she loves, or will the heartbreak of everything she has suffered destroy any chance of happiness forever?

In the fall of 1863, the Union Army is in control of the Mississippi River and much of Louisiana, including New Orleans and Baton Rouge. The retreating Confederate army is being replaced by Red Legs, irregulars commanded by a maniacal figure, and enslaved men and women are beginning to glimpse freedom. When Hannah Laveau, an enslaved woman working on the Lufkin plantation, is accused of murder, she goes on the run with Florence Milton, an abolitionist schoolteacher, dodging the local constable and the slavecatchers that prowl the bayous. Wade Lufkin, haunted by what he observed-and did-as a surgeon on the battlefield, has returned to his uncle's plantation to convalesce, where he becomes enraptured by Hannah.

Title: A Great Country: A Novel Author: Shilpi Somaya Gowda Narrator: Vikas Adam Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 9 minutes Release date: March 26, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Named an ELLE BEST BOOK OF 2024 Named a BEST or MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR by Readers’ Digest, Elle Magazine, CondeNast Traveler, Publishers’ Weekly, Indigo, ZibbyMag, Goodreads, BookBub & more  “A deeply moving, layered portrait of the hopes, dreams and fears a family carries as ‘other’ in the face of the modern American Dream.'' -- Ashley Audrain, New York Times bestselling author of The Push and The Whispers Pacific Hills, California: Gated communities, ocean views, well-tended lawns, serene pools, and now the new home of the Shah family. For the Shah parents, who came to America twenty years earlier with little more than an education and their new marriage, this move represents the culmination of years of hard work and dreaming. For their children, born and raised in America, success is not so simple. For the most part, these differences among the five members of the Shah family are minor irritants, arguments between parents and children, older and younger siblings. But one Saturday night, the twelve-year-old son is arrested. The fallout from that event will shake each family member’s perception of themselves as individuals, as community members, as Americans, and will lead each to consider: how do we define success? At what cost comes ambition? And what is our role and responsibility in the cultural mosaic of modern America? For readers of The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett and Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid, A Great Country explores themes of immigration, generational conflict, social class and privilege as it reconsiders the myth of the model minority and questions the price of the American dream.

But one Saturday night, the twelve-year-old son is arrested. The fallout from that event will shake each family member’s perception of themselves as individuals, as community members, as Americans, and will lead each to consider: how do we define success? At what cost comes ambition? And what is our role and responsibility in the cultural mosaic of modern America? For readers of The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett and Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid, A Great Country explores themes of immigration, generational conflict, social class and privilege as it reconsiders the myth of the model minority and questions the price of the American dream. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/696205 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/696205]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Duchess: The Scandalous Ladies of London Series: #2 of The Scandalous Ladies of London Author: Sophie Jordan Narrator: Mary Jane Wells Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 37 minutes Release date: March 26, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The thrilling second book in New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan’s amazing new high concept series, The Scandalous Ladies of London, which chronicles the lives of a group of affluent ladies reigning over glittering, Regency-era London, vying for position in the hierarchy of the ton. They are the young wives, widows, and daughters of London’s wealthiest families. The drama is big, the money runs deep, and the shade is real. Life is different in the ton. “I liked my husband well enough … but I like him even better dead.” It’s been a year since her wretched cad of a husband died and Valencia, the Dowager Duchess of Dedham, is finally her own woman. Flitting from party to party, freedom is sweet and life should be perfect. Until the new duke surfaces.  Nothing like the haughty noblemen who populate the ton, Rhain, the newly minted Duke of Dedham, is a big brawny Welshman with an accent that makes Valencia’s knees go weak as he boldly moves into her home with his six wild unwed sisters. The rude and humorless usurper thinks her vain and spoiled. But with a pittance to her name, Valencia needs his support to remain in London and enjoy all the pleasures her new position as a merry widow has to offer.  So a bargain is struck. Valencia will usher his sisters into Good Society and see them happily betrothed. In return, he’ll give her the financial security and independence she craves. But the more time they spend beneath the same roof, the more she realizes it's not safety she wants but the dangerously seductive Rhain. Valencia has vowed never to risk marriage again. And yet how can she resist the tempting man when he might be the greatest adventure of her life?

Afraid he may be a sniper from the war she fled, Nadia starts seeing threats everywhere, alongside unsettling visions of her lost girlfriend, Sanja. As her volatile connection with Iggy unravels, Nadia is forced to face the ethically shaky choices she made to escape the war, her survivor guilt, and her disavowed queer sexuality.

Title: War of Hearts Author: Tania Farrelly Narrator: Tania Farrelly Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 19 minutes Release date: September 19, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 1917: America's declaration of war against Germany gives Grace Winter, a keen-eyed New York Times investigative reporter, a much sought after opportunity to make her mark on the Western Front, albeit in ways she had never expected. But by 1918 the gruesome reality of trench warfare has set in, and an invisible new enemy - The Spanish Flu - is killing allied soldiers in their droves. Father Jude is no ordinary priest. He's proven himself as fearless on the battlefield as any soldier, and as compassionate as any man of the cloth. He is willing to put himself in the line of fire to save the souls of young men on both sides of the barbed wire. But things get complicated when he renders assistance to the sharp-witted war correspondent, Grace. As their mission to filter secrets back through enemy lines become increasingly perilous, so too does their attraction. And when Grace catches the priest taking an obsessive interest in a tiny silver music box gifted to her by an unknown soldier, she suspects the good Father may be keeping a devastating secret. Grace must trust her instincts and make an impossible choice, between the life of one man and the lives of many men. Set against the backdrop of World War One and spanning three continents, this is a heart-stopping story of forbidden love and courage that explores the nature of faith, the quest for redemption and the true meaning of grace.
