    Die Woodlanders
    Als die junge Grace Melbury nach der Schulausbildung heimkehrt aufs Land, ist sie für ihre einstige Liebe, den einfachen Waldarbeiter Giles Winterborne, eine Nummer zu groß. Zudem fühlt sich Grace zu dem feinen Dr. Edred Fitzpiers hingezogen - darin nach Kräften von ihrem Vater unterstützt. Giles beginnt um sie zu kämpfen. Thomas Hardys Roman von 1887, vielgerühmt in seiner englischen Heimat, ist für die deutschen Leser noch zu entdecken. Er schildert eine scheinbar wohlgeordnete kleine Welt, die zwischen leidenschaftlichem Begehren und sozialen Schranken in Aufruhr gerät.

    The Curse of the Ancient Emerald: Hardy Boys Adventures, Book 9 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 173min
    Three nights. Three riddles. Three robberies. First, a priceless painting disappears from the Bayport Historical Museum; then, two ancient samurai swords vanish from a private collection. A string of robberies has hit Bayport, and all signs point to the Phantom, a recently released ex-con who last struck more than 20 years ago. There's only one problem: The Phantom has vanished into thin air, and not even Frank and Joe Hardy can track him down. Then the boys begin receiving threatening notes in the mail, each one containing a strange riddle. And it looks like the Phantom's next target could be the valuable Emerald of Astara, the 2,500-year-old crown jewel of the historical museum. Can the Hardys crack the Phantom's code before he strikes again? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tim Gregory.

    Lights! Camera! Sabotage? It does not take much to convince Frank and Joe to be extras in the new zombie movie that's filming in Bayport.

    Lame Brains and Lunatics , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 557min
    Silent Film Comedy was a fortuitous combination of art and technology, where the physical comedy skills and artistry passed down from the Commediadell'Arte, English music hall, and American vaudeville were captured for posterity by the newly created motion picture camera. While the Chaplins, Keatons, and Laurel & Hardys are still remembered and celebrated, this book profiles unsung practitioners such as Billie Ritchie, Marcel Perez, LigeConley, and George Rowe, with special focus on the neglected comediennesAlice Howell, Gale Henry, Fay Tincher, and Josie Sadler. Popular icons onthe order of Mack Sennett, Marie Dressler, Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, and W.C.Fields are re-examined, plus detailed histories of silent comedy teams andkid's comedies are offered. The book also includes selected filmographiesand is lavishly illustrated with more than 225 rarely-seen photographs andadvertising images. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Donny Baarns.

    The Woodlanders , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 983min
    This novel was described as one of Hardys' best and indeed one of the better novels of the latter part of the 19th century. With its publication the author entered into a period of controversy which was to follow him for the rest of his life. Grace Melbury, the timber merchant's daughter, comes back to Little Hintock after some years at finishing school. She was the childhood sweetheart of Giles Winterborne, a compassionate, caring man who works in the village. Melbury senior has promised himself that Grace and Giles will be married to recompense for him taking Giles' father's betrothed many years before. However, Grace is a different woman now, a sophisticated creature, and the suave, knowledgeable local doctor Fitzpiers takes an interest in her. Melbury goes back on his word.... But has Grace changed all that much? And is the doctor the honest professional man he pretends to be? The story is not without flashes of humour, with a rich background of detail and the humanity that characterised Hardy's work, which leads him to question the injustice of the marriage laws in this tale. ungekürzt.

And Frank can't wait to go to all the museums he's researched. On their very first day in the city, the brothers are woken up early in the morning by fireworks. But these are no ordinary fireworks. They are a part of elaborate cover for the heist of a priceless artifact. What's worse, the theft seems to have been orchestrated by Joe's favorite street artist, an unidentified outlaw and activist that goes only by the name Le Stylo. Everyone seems sure that it's him, but the Hardys are suspicious. From everything they know about Le Stylo, the crime is out of character. Sure, he makes a habit of provoking the authorities, but he's an activist; not a thief. Could the artist known for his mystique have been framed? Frank and Joe are determined to find out. A race to find the real thief has Frank and Joe following clues that lead them all over Paris, where they hobnob with rich art patrons, travel in a car that can only be described as a small Batmobile, and explore the extensive Catacombs under the city. Deep in the world of artistic deception, the boys have to wonder, are they in over their heads? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tim Gregory.
