    Immovable object - Meet irresistible force When Alastair Stone investigates a tale of odd events at an abandoned Midwestern paper mill, he figures it's just another hoax. After all, he's seen hundreds of them in his career. He soon discovers this one isn't a hoax, though - and neither is the backwoods hunter who's suddenly developed healing abilities in Pennsylvania. The only thing the two have in common are the strange, possibly extradimensional rifts spontaneously appearing nearby. As Stone digs deeper, he finds forces aligned against him - including some of his most trusted and powerful friends. Why are they warning him away from the rifts? And more importantly, why do they refuse to give him a reason? But when Verity disappears during their investigation, Stone knows he has to get to the bottom of this supernatural mystery - no matter how many enemies he has to make in the process. And when he finally does learn the truth, it comes with the horrifying revelation that he might already have made a terrible mistake. Don't miss the rest of the series: Stone and a Hard PlaceThe ForgottenThe ThresholdThe SourceCore of StoneBlood and StoneHeart of StoneFlesh and StoneThe Infernal HeartThe Other SidePath of StoneNecessary SacrificesGame of StoneSteel and StoneStone and ClawThe Seventh Stoneand three standalone tales: Turn to StoneShadows and StoneDevil's Bargain ungekürzt.

    One star-chained evening in a Manhattan bathroom, Carl Schirmer spontaneously combusts! His body transforms into light, mysteriously snatched from his banal life by an alien intelligence 130 billion years in the future. There, all spacetime is collapsing into a cosmic black hole, the Big Crunch – and a bold, cosmic destiny awaits Carl. Rebuilt from the remnants of his light by extraterrestrials for a cryptic purpose, he awakens in time’s last world, the strangest of all – the Werld. At the edge of infinity, Carl discovers the Foke, nomadic humans who travel among the floating islands of the Werld. The Foke teach him how to live - and love - at the end of time, and he loses his heart to his plucky guide, the beautiful Evoë. Their life together in this blissful kingdom that knows no aging or disease brings them to rapture - until Evoë falls prey to the zōtl, a spidery intelligence who hunt the Foke and eat the chemical by-products of their pain. In order to save his beloved from a gruesome death, Carl must return to Earth - 130 billion years earlier - where he is shocked to discover that the Earth he’s come back to is not the one he left. Can he meet the harsh demands of his task before the zōtl find him and begin ravishing the Earth? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Gilmore.

    In her first novel since The God of War, critically acclaimed author Marisa Silver takes Dorothea Lange’s "Migrant Mother" photograph as inspiration for a breathtaking reinvention - a story of two women, one famous and one forgotten, and of the remarkable legacy of their singular encounter. In 1936, a young mother resting by the side of a road in Central California is spontaneously photographed by a woman documenting the migrant laborers who have taken to America’s farms in search of work - little personal information is exchanged and neither has any way of knowing that their chance encounter has produced the most iconic image of the Great Depression. Three vibrant characters anchor the narrative of Mary Coin: Mary, the migrant mother herself, who emerges as a woman with deep reserves of courage and nerve, with private passions and carefully guarded secrets. Vera Dare, the photographer wrestling with creative ambition who makes the choice to leave her children in order to pursue her work. And Walker Dodge, a present-day professor of cultural history, who discovers a family mystery embedded in the picture. In luminous, exquisitely observed prose, Silver creates an extraordinary tale from a brief moment in history, and reminds us that though a great photograph can capture the essence of a moment, it only scratches the surface of a life. ungekürzt.

    A rollicking feminist tale set in 1950s America where thousands of women have spontaneously transformed into dragons, exploding notions of a woman's place in the world and expanding minds about accepting others for who they really are. • The first adult novel by the Newbery award-winning author of The Girl Who Drank the Moon Alex Green is a young girl in a world much like ours, except for its most seminal event: the Mass Dragoning of 1955, when hundreds of thousands of ordinary wives and mothers sprouted wings, scales, and talons; left a trail of fiery destruction in their path; and took to the skies. Was it their choice? What will become of those left behind? Why did Alex's beloved aunt Marla transform but her mother did not? Alex doesn't know. It's taboo to speak of. Forced into silence, Alex nevertheless must face the consequences of this astonishing event: a mother more protective than ever; an absentee father; the upsetting insistence that her aunt never even existed; and watching her beloved cousin Bea become dangerously obsessed with the forbidden. In this timely and timeless speculative novel, award-winning author Kelly Barnhill boldly explores rage, memory, and the tyranny of forced limitations. When Women Were Dragons exposes a world that wants to keep women small-their lives and their prospects-and examines what happens when they rise en masse and take up the space they deserve.

    Adrianna was finally starting to feel settled again. She hadn’t realized how adrift she’d been until she packed up and moved with her daughter back to England. Her marriage to Gerard had ended as spontaneously as it had started. Things between them had been patchy for a long time, ever since Crystal was born and he was left to be her main career while Adrianna worked on Zero. But her daughter was her world and the day Gerard left was the day Adrianna realized she might lose it.But here she was, with full custody of her little girl and a new home, a new life back in England. They had been here close to six months now, and while the wounds from her latest divorce were still fresh, she felt - for the most part- happy. Which was why she’d found herself actually saying yes when Vivian asked her, and not for the first time, to take a night off from motherhood and go out. She knocked on Vivian’s door, Crystal’s small hand held tightly in her own, and felt her stomach twist. Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea. She hadn’t had a night out to herself in years; she was bound to make a fool of herself. But it was too late to back out now, and to prove her point the door swung open, revealing Lincoln, Vivian’s husband. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Samantha Archer.

His mother has died and it was her last wish that he travel to their favorite spot in the mountains to have a tryst with God and attempt to rekindle the Christian faith that he seems to have lost. The tryst becomes a turning point in Treeves' life and after much prayer and Bible readings, he resolves to become a preacher.   But to whom should he preach? Without his knowledge, his wily rich uncle engineers an offer from a New York church and it is there that he meets Patty. She is using an assumed name and denies that she's Patty Merrill. But she can't help being influenced by John's preaching and, just as he is determined to devote his life to the downtrodden, she also begins to see the light.    Part love story, part social commentary of 1920s America, The Tryst is a testament to the power of faith. ungekürzt.
