Ten Birds That Changed the World (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BWGDR441 | 2023 | 12 hours and 2 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 284 MB
Author: Stephen Moss
Narrator: Stephen Moss
For the whole of human history, we have lived alongside birds. We have hunted and domesticated them for food; venerated them in our mythologies, religions, and rituals; exploited them for their natural resources; and been inspired by them for our music, art, and poetry. In Ten Birds That Changed the World, naturalist and author Stephen Moss tells the gripping story of this long and intimate relationship through key species from all seven of the world's continents. From Odin's faithful raven companions to Darwin's finches, and from the wild turkey of the Americas to the emperor penguin as potent symbol of the climate crisis, this is a fascinating, eye-opening, and endlessly engaging work of natural history.

English | ASIN: B0BQNWQRGV | 2023 | 7 hours and 25 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 214 MB
Author: Travis Langley
Narrator: Elise Arsenault, Julienne Irons
Monsters of the Upside Down, beware! Travis Langley returns with a group of expert contributors to explore these and other questions to shine a light on true human nature through the Netflix series and cultural phenomenon Stranger Things. When do feelings of grief, guilt, depression, fear, and isolation tear us down, and how do we transform them into hope, inspiration, forgiveness, acceptance, and motivation to do what's right? Growing up is hard enough without metaphors for the dangers that lurk in life's shadows springing to life in the form of monsters, villains, conspiracies, and enemy soldiers. Stranger Things Psychology: Life Upside Down descends into the dark side of adolescence to find the light on the other side of the ultimate coming-of-age story.

The world waits for no one. While Boxxy is off chasing shinies and delving dungeons abroad, Azurvale's shadows churn, fester, and ferment into a potent cocktail of trouble. Secret organizations maneuver behind the scenes, patiently advancing their nefarious Descriptions. Government agencies lay in wait, ready to pounce at the first sign of trouble. Powerful adventurers gear up and train for the next challenge, uncertain as to what form it might take. In the midst of all this, a humble scholar arrives from a distant land wholly ignorant to the mountain-sized powder keg waiting for him. Explosives primed and the fuse set, the only thing missing is a spark to set things off, and who better to serve that role than a fiery redhead making her triumphant return?

Sink: A Memoir (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0B831C47L | 2023 | 6 hours and 18 minutes | MP3@64 kbps | 174 MB
Author: Joseph Earl Thomas
Narrator: Joseph Earl Thomas
"A brilliant and brilliantly different" (Kiese Laymon), wrenching and redemptive coming-of-age memoir about the difficulty of growing up in a hazardous home and the glory of finding salvation in geek culture. Stranded within an ever-shifting family's desperate but volatile attempts to love, saddled with a mercurial mother mired in crack addiction, and demeaned daily for his perceived weakness, Joseph Earl Thomas grew up feeling he was under constant threat. Roaches fell from the ceiling, colonizing bowls of noodles and cereal boxes. Fists and palms pounded down at school and at home, leaving welts that ached long after they disappeared. An inescapable hunger gnawed at his frequently empty stomach, and requests for food were often met with indifference if not open hostility. Deemed too unlike the other boys to ever gain the acceptance he so desperately desired, he began to escape into fantasy and virtual worlds, wells of happiness in a childhood assailed on all sides.

English | ASIN: B0BV33T1MD | 2023 | 12 hours and 14 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 364 MB
Author: Ian Gardner
Narrator: Ian Porter
A hard-hitting history of the U.S. airborne unit who made a name for themselves in the unforgiving jungles of South Vietnam. This is the dramatic history of a band of brothers who served together in Vietnam and who against the odds lived up to the reputation of their World War II forefathers. Brigadier General Salve Matheson's idea was to create an 800-strong battalion of airborne volunteers in the same legendary "Currahee" spirit that had defined the volunteers of 1942. The man he chose to lead them was John Geraci, who would mold this young brotherhood into a highly cohesive and motivated force. In December 1967, the battalion was sent into the Central Highlands of Lam Dong Province.

Master Conflict Without Being a Bitch: Get Results Without Losing Your Cool (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0BVJTP6RY | 2023 | 3 hours and 32 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 196 MB
Author: Dr. Judy Morley
Narrator: Suzie Althens
Do you avoid conflict at all costs? If so, you are completely normal, but that doesn't make you an effective friend, partner, or from a business perspective, a good leader. Leadership matters most when there is no agreement about how to move forward. And while conflict is a necessary component of peaceful, successful organizations, the most successful leaders know how to navigate conflict without drama and confrontation. That's because healthy conflict isn't intense or threatening. It can be as benign as a small difference of opinion, but it's necessary for evolution since without conflict, nothing grows. This book is about YOU.
