Captains Courageous audiobook

Captains Courageous

Young Harvey Cheyne is rich, spoiled, prejudiced, and totally lacking in the real experiences of life. When the fifteen-year-old is accidentally washed overboard a great ocean liner headed for Europe, he is picked up by a fisherman and brought aboard the fishing schooner We're Here.


Harvey's stories of privilege and wealth mean nothing aboard this hard-working vessel, and the boy receives many lessons in self-reliance, values, and hard-bitten reality - "things every man must know, blind, drunk, or asleep" - in the words of Long Jack. Harvey, Long Jack, Tom Platt, Manuel, and many more great characters come alive in this rich retelling of life aboard the We're Here.

Brad Lansky and the Alien Engineer audiobook

Brad Lansky and the Alien Engineer

After their return from Planet X, Brad and Alex have a tough time trying to get their ship to pass its maintenance review. The alien’s viral onslaughts have left the Full Advantage riddled with software mutations and there are suspicions of even more invasive alterations. Dieter, whom they’d rescued from the moon-swamp at Planet X, is alive but struggling to shake off his infection.

Even though their mission had been highly successful by many standards, no sentient press agents on Earth have shown the slightest interest at their return. Surely their findings were newsworthy?!

Things take a turn for the worse when Dieter’s condition deteriorates. Just then one of the most powerful A.I.’s in the world requests their immediate presence and offers compelling arguments for a risky mission to an unchartered system twenty thousand light years away. Could this A.I.’s theory about the origin of the alien they found at Planet X be right? If so, can they trust a fragment of this A.I. aboard the Full Advantage to have their well-being at heart, and for that matter, can they still rely on their own ship to bring them back safely?

And as if this mission didn’t have enough unknowns, Brad couldn’t deny the wishes of a dying man and has allowed Dieter to come along!

Blood Is the Sky audiobook

Blood Is the Sky


When a fire is done, what's left is only half-destroyed. It is charred and brittle. It is obscene. There is nothing so ugly in all the world as what a fire leaves behind, covered in ashes and smoke and a smell you'll think about every day for the rest of your life.

Reluctant investigator Alex McKnight finds himself drawn by friendship into a long drive north. The brother of Alex's longtime Ojibwa friend Vinnie LeBlanc works as a hunting guide, serving the rich clients from downstate. It seems that Vinnie's brother and his most recent group of hunters have vanished in northern Ontario, and Vinnie is scared enough to ask Alex to help him find them.

Their arrival sets in motion a heart-pounding string of events that leaves Alex and his friend miles from civilization, stranded in the heart of the Canadian wilderness with no food, no weapons -and no way out. And there's someone out there who definitely does not want them to make it back alive.

At once elegant and enormously suspenseful, Steve Hamilton's Blood Is the Sky heralds his arrival as one of the premier crime writers working today.

Thinking Beyond Stage One audiobook

Applied Economics: Thinking Beyond Stage One

"The great achievement of Sowell's book is its simplicity. His writing is easy and lucid,
an admirable trait considering the topic at hand.As a basic primer for the economically perplexed,
this volume serves very well."Publishers Weekly

"Thomas Sowell is one of the wonders of the American intellectual world."Peter Brimelow, author
of Alien Nation

This book is geared to the average citizen with little or no economics background who would like the
tools to think critically about economic issues. Many of today's economic issues are obscured by
their inherent complexity and the often confusing and conflicting views coming from political talking
heads. Sowell, a leading conservative economist and senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, seeks to
alleviate this confusion.

He begins by elucidating the differences between politicians, who are often compelled by political
considerations to act for the short term, and economists, who are more concerned with long-term
ramifications. Sowell then focuses on the application of economics to major contemporary real-world
problemshousing, medical care, discrimination, and the economic development of nations.

Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, and the recipient of many awards and prizes. His previous books for Blackstone Audiobooks include: Ethnic America, Civil Rights: Rhetoric or Reality, A Personal Odyssey, The Economics and Politics of Race, Black Rednecks and White Liberals, and many others.

Doctor Who - The Enemy of the World

'They hate the person that they think you are - passionately and completely.'

No sooner have the Doctor, Jamie and Victoria landed on a sun-kissed Australian beach than they are being shot at by murderous fanatics! A dramatic helicopter rescue places them in the hands of Astrid Ferher and Giles Kent, two people intent on bringing about the downfall of the world's most dangerous man - who happens to look exactly like the Doctor.

This is Earth in the near future, and Salamander's Sun-Catcher technology has been hailed as the answer to all the world's food problems. Yet is there more to his prediction of natural disasters than meets the eye? Could it be that the death and destruction which he appears to foretell is in fact of his own creation? Jamie and Victoria infiltrate Salamander's Hungarian palace to gain proof of his misdeeds, whilst the Doctor must impersonate the dictator in order to stay alive. In doing so he witnesses the might of his brutish regime, and discovers the terrible secret which lurks beneath the Kanowa research centre.

One of the time travellers' most dangerous adventures ever takes place against a backdrop of volcanos and earthquakes, deadly high-speed chases, assassination attempts and spectacular explosions. Ultimately it will lead them to a climactic confrontation between the Doctor and his murderous double...
