Title: Shout It Out Loud: The Story of Kiss's Destroyer and the Making of an American Icon

Author: James Campion

Narrator: Stephen Borne

Format: Unabridged

Length: 16:07:55

Language: English

Release date: 01-26-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music

Summary:

How does an underground oddity become a cultural phenomenon?

For over forty years, the rock band Kiss has galvanized the entertainment world with an unparalleled blitz of bravado, theatricality, and shameless merchandizing, garnering generations of loyally rabid fans. But if not for a few crucial months in late 1975 and early 1976, Kiss may have ended up nothing more than a footnote.

Shout It Out Loud is a serious examination of the circumstance and serendipity that fused the creation of the band's seminal work, Destroyer-including the band's arduous ascent to the unexpected smash hit, Alive!, the ensuing lawsuits between its management and its label, the pursuit of the hot, young producer, a grueling musical 'boot camp', the wildly creative studio abandon, the origins behind an iconic cover, the era's most outlandish tour, and the unlikely string of hit singles.

Extensive research from the period and insights into each song are enhanced by hundreds of archived materials and dozens of interviews surrounding the mid-'70s-era Kiss and its zeitgeist. New interviews with major principals in the making of an outrageously imaginative rock classic animate this engaging tale.

Summary:

Somebody in Washington is updating Shakespeare. The first thing he wants to do is kill all the lobbyists. Knocking off three of them in consecutive weeks, he's off to a fast start. On the lapel of each victim, the killer leaves a pin that, arguably, resembles Porky Pig.

The Metro police are on the case when Putnam Shady steps forward and identifies the third victim as a friend. Authority averse, Putnam gives the cops only bare bones information-but he tells Margaret 'Sweetie' Sweeney that he thinks he will be the next victim.

The reason, he explains, is quite simple. There are two plans afoot to seize control of the federal government. At the center of one plan is the speaker of the House of Representatives. The group behind the other plan consisted of Putnam and his three dead colleagues.

Sweetie vows to protect Putnam. She enlists Jim McGill, the president's henchman, to find out who is behind the murders. But then McGill's whole world is turned upside down. His son, Kenny, is diagnosed with leukemia.

Summary:

Cleaning up the academy just got . . . personal.

Up to now, my life has been kind of a fairy tale-the down-on-her-luck janitor turned war mage, tapped to help four super-hot college wizards win a magic competition, while they become my very own Prince Charmings.

Except now, as our final and deadliest challenge looms, I'm supposed to bond with the last mage of the group, Rafe. And he's nothing like I expect.

With the barest smile, he seduces me. With the softest touch, he electrifies me. From our very first kiss, he opens me to a haunting, forsaken power that binds me to him, body and soul.

Even worse, I know-know-that Rafe is hiding a terrible secret. One that threatens to shatter him into a million pieces . . . or shatter me instead. But I haven't come this far to lose this gorgeous, tortured wizard to his twisted magic. I haven't come this far to lose any of them.

So Bring. It. On.

Summary:

Unswerving:

Angus Force is determined to hunt down the serial killer he'd once shot dead-or so he thought. But an anonymous source reports that Lassiter is alive. Force hasn't slept since, knowing it's only a matter of time before 'the Surgeon' strikes again. And soon, a body is found, bearing Lassiter's same maniacal MO. It's just the beginning of a murderous trail blazing through DC and Virginia, right to Force's backyard . . .

Unstoppable:

Nari Zhang is the shrink for the ragtag Deep Ops Unit, though she isn't Force's

shrink-which is a very good thing. Because once they're thrown together on the case, their attraction is explosive and irresistible. They'll just have to fight that much harder to keep the heat between them from flaming out of control. But things are about to become far more challenging, and deadly, than they could have imagined . . .

Unhinged:

Once the killer catches a glimpse of Nari, she becomes his new obsession. She is now the focus point-for both Force and Lassiter-in a dangerous dance for survival . . .

Title: Power of Forgiveness

Author: Eva Mozes Kor

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:46:09

Language: English

Release date: 01-26-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Biography & Memoir, World, History & Culture, General, Women

Summary:

Eva Mozes Kor experienced the horrors of the Nazi regime first hand in Auschwitz, but what is even more remarkable is how she has come to terms with this. Forgive and Heal are the words of advice that she has passed on at every opportunity. She was just ten years old when she was sent to Auschwitz. While her parents and two older sisters were murdered there, she and her sister Miriam were subjected to medical experiments at the hands of Dr. Joseph Mengele.

Later on, when Miriam fell ill due to the long-term effects of the experiments she had endured, Eva embarks on a search for their torturers. But what she discovered was the remedy for her troubled soul; she was able to forgive them. This kind of forgiveness is not an act of self-denial. It actively releases people from trauma, allowing them to escape from the grip of their former tormentors, cast off the role of victim, and begin the struggle against forgetting in earnest.

Summary:

American heiress August Crenshaw has aspirations. But unlike her peers, it isn't some stuffy British Lord she wants wrapped around her finger-it's Crenshaw Iron Works, the family business.

But August won't go peacefully to her fate. She decides to show Rothschild that she's no typical London wallflower. Little does she realize that every stunt she pulls to make him call off the wedding only makes him like her even more.

Title: Let's Talk: How English Conversation Works

Author: David Crystal

Narrator: Paul Woodson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:07:36

Language: English

Release date: 01-26-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Language Instruction, Language Arts

Summary:

Banter, chit-chat, gossip, natter, tete-a-tete: these are just a few of the terms for the varied ways in which we interact with one another through conversation. David Crystal explores the factors that motivate so many different kinds of talk and reveals the rules we use unconsciously, even in the most routine exchanges of everyday conversation.

We tend to think of conversation as something spontaneous, instinctive, habitual. It has been described as an art, as a game, sometimes even as a battle. Whichever metaphor we use, most people are unaware of what the rules are, how they work, and how we can bend and break them when circumstances warrant it.
