Here Goes Nothing
A firecracker of a novel by the Booker-shortlisted author of A Fraction of the Whole - a scathingly funny and affecting tale of life, death, love and the questionable existence of God. Angus Mooney is not happy - he's been murdered, cut off in the prime of his life. He feels humiliated - he's never even believed in an afterlife. (How wrong he'd been). He's confused - death has provided more questions than answers. And he desperately misses his audacious and fiery wife, Gracie, who's expecting their first child. The only upside is that Angus has found a way to see what his murderer is up to, and how Gracie is faring. The downside: Gracie and his murderer are getting uncomfortably close, and a worldwide pandemic means the afterlife is about to get very crowded . . .

An eccentric, trigger-happy captain and a level-headed commander vie for control of the starship Gemini, but are forced to mix their two very divided crews when they encounter a space barge full of militarized waste.They say it takes two to tango, but when facing this planet-destroying vessel and the rumor of an ancient, hidden foe in the Umbra, it takes the military might of Captain Skip Sutridge and the scientific genius of Commander Maggie Antwa to be in with a fighting chance.Some say the stars are infinite, but the potential to defy cosmic threats is greater still when divisions are set aside for a greater good. That's a lesson that isn't easily learned by these space-faring twins, but it's not a lesson that will go to waste. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Johnn Jones.

For King and Company: Percival Merewether Series, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 875min
They called themselves the Bombay Buccaneers - and under that flamboyant name they blazed a trail of daring and adventure from the Gulf of Oman to the waters of Macao. For courage, loyalty, and renown few of the Buccaneers could match their Captain, Percival Merewether, a brilliant seaman who was already the hero of a score of fabled sea-faring campaigns. Newly in command of the 36-gun frigate Pitt, Merewether is about to set sail again - this time on a voyage that would plunge him and his crew into new and ever more hazardous trials: a mutiny, a fierce-fought sea battle with the French, and a stormy encounter with the most ferocious pirate ever to hoist a flag: Madame Chin, scourge of the China Seas. ungekürzt.

A Chef's Table: August 10, 2006, Hörbuch, Digital, 49min
It's hard to believe that it has been nearly a year since Hurricane Katrina made landfall on the coasts of Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana. On today's show, we'll see how the region is faring. The reviews have been mixed: some will say they are well on the road to normalcy; others indicate help has been sorely lacking. And you can't talk about the effect of Katrina without looking at the heart of New Orleans and its food culture. We'll hear from Executive Chef Tory McPhail about the re-opening of Commander's Palace. Then, get an update on Louisiana's fishing industry and hear from a volunteer working to rebuild a small restaurant in the Crescent City. Plus, an intimate look at Avery Island, the home of Tabasco, and family recipes from New Orleans. [Broadcast Date: August 10, 2006] Language: English. Narrator: Jim Coleman.
