Summary:

'Welcome to One Wizard! How may I help you?'

Being an intern at a wizarding firm sounds magical on the page, but in practice mostly means getting yelled at by senior mages-and angry clients who've been turned into platypuses. So when Journeyman Wen receives a frantic call from a young man who's awoken to a talisman on his bedroom wall and no memory of how it got there, they jump at the chance to escape call center duty and actually help someone for once.

But the case ends up being more complicated than Wen could ever have anticipated. Their client has been possessed by a demon prince from Hell, and he's not interested in leaving . . .

Title: Stand in the Fire: Three American Soldiers and Their Wars, 1900-1950

Author: William Crawford Woods

Narrator: Derek Dysart

Format: Unabridged

Length: 12:23:00

Language: English

Release date: 12-05-23

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, World, Military

Summary:

From the first shot fired by his grandfather on a jungle trail in 1903 to the day his father captured plans for the Chinese invasion of South Korea, William Crawford Woods's family has fought in nearly every American war of the twentieth century. Drawing on his family's letters, journals, official records, and other artifacts found in his grandmother's attic, Woods has revived their stories-accounts of his grandfather, who served in the Philippine War and World War I; of his uncle, who rose from a West Point cadet to staff command in the 11th Airborne and died in action in the Battle of Manila in World War II; and of his own father, who transformed himself from a sedentary lawyer into a soldier and a spy. To lighten the dramatic and emotional load of his family's service, Woods occasionally calls on memories of his own time in the army, which he calls 'brief, bloodless, and largely comic.'

Woods fortifies this work of nonfiction with his skills as a novelist, crafting dramatic scenes and engaging dialog, offering far more than operational battlefield stories. He has skillfully created a memoir about the construction of memory forged in military service and American masculinity. Stand in the Fire is a powerful exploration of the love between fathers and sons and an attempt to honor family valor.

Title: White Mischief: The Murder of Lord Erroll

Author: James Fox

Narrator: Dennis Kleinman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11:04:03

Language: English

Release date: 12-05-23

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, True Crime, Mystery, Thriller & Horror, Africa

Summary:

The riveting true story of decadence, deception, and murder among British aristocrats in colonial Kenya

In 1941, with London burning in the Blitz, a group of hedonistic English nobles partied shamelessly in Kenya. Far removed from falling bombs, the wealthy elites of 'Happy Valley' indulged in morphine, alcohol, and unrestricted sex, often with their friends' spouses. But the party turned sinister in the early hours of a January morning for Josslyn Hay, Lord Erroll, who had been enjoying the favors of the beautiful young wife of a middle-aged neighbor. Hay was found dead, a bullet in his brain. The murder shocked the close-knit community of wealthy expatriates in Nairobi and shined a harsh light on their louche lifestyle.

Three decades later, author James Fox researched the slaying of Lord Erroll, an unsolved crime still sheathed in a thick cloud of rumor and innuendo. What he discovered was both unsettling and luridly compelling. White Mischief is a spellbinding true-crime classic, a tale of privileged excess and the wages of sin, and an account of one writer's determined effort to crack a cold and craven killing.

Contains mature themes.

Title: Naughty Neil: A Hidden Species Novella

Author: Louisa Masters

Narrator: Joel Leslie

Format: Unabridged

Length: 01:33:25

Language: English

Release date: 12-05-23

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Fiction & Literature, LGBTQ+

Summary:

I'm just an ordinary guy . . . who feeds on sexual energy.

I never knew my dad. Mom said he was a nice enough guy, fun for a night, but she never did get his name. I didn't miss him, and my life is good.

Then a government agent shows up at my door and announces that I'm not really human. Dear old Dad was actually an incubus, a being that needs sexual energy to survive, and apparently that means I am too. Gotta be a scam, right?

Or so I think . . . until Agent Cutie changes into a canine (not a werewolf) in my living room and then eats half a dozen Christmas cookies while making orgasm sounds. Turns out, other species do exist.

On the plus side, being a stripper means that all my incubus needs are being met without me even trying. And now that I know the situation in my pants is normal for an incubus, I don't feel self-conscious . . . so a fling with Agent Mark is definitely on the table.

Between being sexy Santa at work, supplying a team of hellhounds with Christmas cookies, and learning what stamina in the bedroom really is, I'm discovering that my old life was kind of empty. Maybe I'm not such an ordinary guy after all.

Title: Into Siberia: George Kennan's Epic Journey Through the Brutal, Frozen Heart of Russia

Author: Gregory J. Wallance

Narrator: Daniel Henning

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:04:42

Language: English

Release date: 12-05-23

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Biography & Memoir, History & Culture, Russia, Travel Tips

Summary:

In the late nineteenth century, close diplomatic relations existed between the United States and Russia. All that changed when George Kennan went to Siberia in 1885 to investigate the exile system and his eyes were opened to the brutality Russia was wielding to suppress dissent.

Over ten months Kennan traveled eight thousand miles, mostly in horse-drawn carriages, sleighs, or on horseback. He endured suffocating sandstorms in the summer and blizzards in the winter. His interviews with convicts and political exiles revealed how Russia ran on the fuel of inflicted pain and fear. Prisoners in the mines were chained day and night to their wheelbarrows as punishment. Babies in exile parties froze to death in their mothers' arms. Kennan came to call the exiles' experience in Siberia a 'perfect hell of misery.'

After returning to the United States, Kennan set out to generate public outrage over the plight of the exiles, writing the renowned Siberia and the Exile System. He then went on a nine-year lecture tour to describe the suffering of the Siberian exiles, intensifying the newly emerging diplomatic conflicts between the two countries which last to this day.

Summary:

In coastal Maine, a woman's scandalous past comes back to haunt her-and tempt her-in this Americana romance from the New York Times bestselling author.

In a picturesque fishing village off the coast of Maine, twenty-six-year-old attorney Gina Gaynes has a thriving career and a bright future. The last man she wants to see is Rhyder Owens, a virile member of the yachting set, back in town to shake up her life again. She's fought hard to forget what happened between them nine years ago. It hadn't been love, it was raw desire. It wasn't a marriage, it was a scandal. It ended not in bittersweet goodbyes, but with blackmail.

Now Rhyder is back to reclaim what he never should have let go. But Gina is not the girl he once knew, one given to impulsive fantasies. She's no longer under the rule of a family who put them both through hell. She's an independent, sophisticated woman who can't be swayed by a bronze sculpture made of flesh and blood. And yet, locked in his embrace, her heart skips a beat. It's making Gina wonder, maybe even hope, that the man who once seemed so wrong for her, could actually be the love of her life.
