Title: The Warwolf: A Peasant Chronicle of the Thirty Years War

Author: Hermann Löns

Narrator: Paul Bellantoni

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 44 minutes

Release date: August 27, 2024

Genres: Historical

Publisher's Summary:

The Thirty Years War, fought between 1618 and 1648, was a ruthless struggle for political and religious control of central Europe. Engulfing most of present-day Germany, the war claimed at least ten million lives. The lengthy conflict was particularly hard on the general population, as thousands of undisciplined mercenaries serving Sweden, Spain, France, the Netherlands, and various German principalities, robbed, murdered, and pillaged communities; disease spread out of control and starvation became commonplace. In The Warwolf, Hermann Löns's acclaimed historical novel, the tragedy and horrors of war in general, and these times in particular are revealed. The Warwolf, based on the author's careful research, traces the life of Harm Wulf, a land-owning peasant farmer of the northern German heath who realizes after witnessing the murder of neighbors and family at the hands of marauding troops that he has a choice between compromising his morals or succumbing to inevitable torture and death. Despite his desire for peace, Wulf decides to band with his fellow farmers and live like 'wolves,' fiercely protecting their isolated communities from all intruders. Löns's brilliant portrayal of the two sides faced by any person in a moral crisis—in Harm Wulf's case, whether to kill or be killed—continues to resonate.

A rosary in one hand. A dagger in the other. Sister Magdalena never heard of the Catherinite nuns until the day she faced her own death sentence. Rome, 1562. It’s the era of the Index of Banned Books and the Roman Inquisition. Kings still burn heretics. The worst threats come from within the Church itself. Only seventeen, Magdalena killed a priest who tried to rape her within the walls of her convent. His powerful family will see her executed, and then they’ll destroy her mother and young sister. Instead, the pope makes an offer. To save her life and protect her family, Magdalena can disappear into a secret religious order, one with a demanding physical regimen to go along with the prayers. She’ll pray the psalms and learn to climb walls. She’ll sharpen her mind and fine-tune her body. Perfected, she’ll infiltrate the Council of Trent. Magdalena’s order slips through cathedrals and palaces at the council, the Pope’s silent operatives. They act as bodyguards for the cardinals. They gather intelligence. If they find heresy, the penalty is death. But when one of the pope’s own men is named a heretic, Magdalena must decide how far she’ll go to protect her church.

Title: Liv's Secrets

Author: Janet Levine

Narrator: Jerzy Jung

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 14 hours 9 minutes

Release date: August 24, 2024

Genres: Historical

Publisher's Summary:

Liv's Secrets is a passionate saga of a fictional South African Jewish family, the Weiszs, immigrants from Eastern Europe. One among a great wave of Jewish immigrants in the latter part of the 19th century, washing up mainly in America, but a wavelet of Lithuanian Jews on South Africa's shores. Historical figures interact with the fictional cast amid the background of South Africa's racial turmoil and apartheid's authoritarian iron fist. Not least of the characters is South Africa itself. Landscape of astonishing beauty and nature's abundant flora and fauna. Decades pass, generations of Weisz family members play out the drama-romance, first loves, lust, betrayal, true love, despair and elation, cruelty and evil, hope and fulfilment. In the background the chilling reality of World Wars and escalating racial tensions within South Africa that culminate in the bloody Sharpeville Massacre, March 1960, and its aftermath. From 1960, the saga pivots on the third generation, embodied by Liv Weisz. Five years earlier, a recent divorcee, passionate and headstrong, she heeds the call to become part of the resistance to the authoritarian White apartheid government. And pays an unimaginable price with resounding consequences for many characters, as the country itself undergoes seismic, racially evoked challenges.

Title: [Russian] - Сыновья: Трилогия об Иосифе Флавии

Author: Лион Фейхтвангер

Narrator: Игорь Тарадайкин

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 21 hours 12 minutes

Release date: August 22, 2024

Genres: Historical

Publisher's Summary:

В 1932 году выдающийся немецкий писатель Лион Фейхтвангер опубликовал роман «Иудейская война», в 1935 году последовал роман «Сыновья», в 1945-м — «Настанет день». Вместе они составили трилогию, посвященную жизни римского историка и военачальника иудейского происхождения Иосифа Флавия. Священник первой чреды Иерусалимского храма, патриот и участник иудейского восстания, Иосиф бен Маттафий оказывается перед мучительным выбором: смириться с пленением или принять смерть, перейти на сторону римлян и предать веру отцов или погибнуть. Однако будущий создатель исторического трактата «Иудейская война» выбирает собственный путь, на котором он бесконечно одинок: живя в Риме и пользуясь покровительством Флавиев, он становится самым преданным проповедником уникальной роли еврейского народа в истории человечества… В творчестве Фейхтвангера — немца еврейского происхождения, вынужденного покинуть Германию с приходом к власти нацистов, темы изгнания из родной страны и места еврейского народа в мире обретают особое, глубоко личное звучание.
