The Lasting Impact of Kurt Cobain by Charles R. Cross Read by Lloyd James

There is a book that is shrouded in mystery. Some even say it’s a myth. Within its pages is a play—one that brings madness and despair to all who read it. It is the play of the King in Yellow, and it will haunt you for the rest of your days. The King in Yellow is a collection of stories interwoven loosely by the elements of the play, including the central figure himself.

Take a seat in the court of ancient Athens as Socrates goes on trial for his life. Hear the philosopher face his accusers with his trademark wit, his cutting logic, and the courage of his ideals. Consider his arguments on virtue, justice, politics, civic duty, love of life, and hope in death, and make your own judgment.

In Here We Are Now, Charles R. Cross examines the legacy of Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain and takes on the question, Why does Kurt Cobain still matter so much, twenty years after his death? Cross explores the impact Cobain has had on music, fashion, film, and culture and attempts to explain his lasting and looming legacy.

Remnants of Tomorrow

Wren must battle the forces that want to enslave her, and the foolish whims of her own heart, to free her world and finally find where she belongs.

Adam Hamilton, one of the country’s leading pastors and Christian authors, shows readers how to understand and interpret the Bible.

Near the start of the nineteenth century a group of Protestant ministers started a special school for “heathen youth” of all races. For some years the school prospered. But eventually it descended into bitter controversy as American racial attitudes intensified.

Wren is in the last place she ever wanted to be: back inside the dome, a prisoner of her father, the Master General Enforcer. After a harrowing escape attempt and finding Levi trapped in a cell, Wren’s world is further turned upside down by what could be Pace’s ultimate betrayal.

Christian denominations continue to experience deep divisions over universal social issues. The underlying debate isn’t about the particular social issue but about the “authority of the Bible.” Adam Hamilton here addresses the key questions that plague the church and cultural debate.

A finely tuned detective novel featuring the delightful Lord Peter Wimsey

A full-cast dramatization specially recorded for BBC Audiobooks, starring Ian Carmichael as Lord Peter Wimsey

Alone against the might of the Federation, an army of androids—and Project Avalon …

The Duke of Denver stands accused of the foul murder of his sister’s fiancé, shot dead in Yorkshire. The Duke’s brother, Lord Peter Wimsey, attempts to prove Denver’s innocence, but why is the Duke refusing to cooperate? Trying to reveal the truth, Wimsey uncovers a web of lies and deceit within the family.

When Harriet Vane attends her Oxford reunion, the prim academic setting is haunted by a rash of bizarre pranks, some of which threaten murder. When an undergraduate at her wit’s end attempts to drown herself, Harriet decided it’s time to ask Lord Peter Wimsey for help.

From the arid wastes of Amersat to the oceans of acid of Aristos, Roj Blake and his crew on board the Liberator wage a deadly war against the forces of galactic oppression—but the Federation’s Supreme Commander Servalan is determined to capture the Liberator and defeat the freedom fighters.

San Francisco Detective Lindsay Boxer is loving her life as a new mother. With an attentive husband, a job she loves, and best friends who can talk about anything, things couldn’t be better. Then the FBI sends Lindsay a photo of a killer from her past, and her happy world is shattered. The picture captures a beautiful woman at a stoplight. But all Lindsay sees is the psychopath behind those seductive eyes: Mackie Morales, the most deranged and dangerous mind the Women’s Murder Club has ever encountered. In this pulse-racing, emotionally charged novel by James Patterson, the Women’s Murder Club must find a killer—before she finds them first.

The New York Times bestselling author of Blackberry Winter imagines the inspiration for Goodnight Moon

I can’t believe how good Patterson is, whether he’s doing a Washington police yarn or traveling a different road with a female narrator. He is always on the mark. I have never begun a Patterson book and been able to put it down.

Goodnight Moon is an adored childhood classic, but its real origins are lost to history. In Goodnight June, Sarah Jio offers a suspenseful and heartfelt take on how the “great green room” might have come to be. June Andersen is professionally successful, but her personal life is marred by unhappiness. Unexpectedly, she is called to settle her great-aunt Ruby’s estate and determine the fate of Bluebird Books, the children’s bookstore Ruby founded in the 1940s. Amid the store’s papers, June stumbles upon letters between her great-aunt and the late Margaret Wise Brown—and steps into the pages of American literature.

Thirty-three years later, Marcus Goldman, a successful young novelist, visits Somerset to see his mentor, Harry Quebert, one of America’s most respected writers, and to find a cure for his writer’s block. But Marcus’ plans are upended when Harry is implicated in the cold-case murder of Nola Kellergan—whom he had an affair with. As the media convicts Harry, Marcus launches his own investigation, following a trail of clues through his mentor’s books, the backwoods and isolated beaches of New Hampshire, and the hidden history of Somerset’s citizens.

After escaping the corrupt back rooms of Washington, DC, Mike Ford is again playing a dangerous game—this time the stakes are even higher. Mike’s brother is in over his head in a powerful conspiracy to steal a secret worth billions of dollars from the little-known but unbelievably influential trading desk at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. In an effort to help, Mike soon finds himself trapped by the dangerous men in charge—and forced to call on all the skills of his criminal past in order to escape. In this sharp, pulse-pounding sequel to The 500, Mike Ford again stars as the cunning and courageous ex–con man with a big heart, and Matthew Quirk confirms that he is one of the most exciting thriller writers at work today.

At once laugh-out-loud funny and indelibly profound, To Rise Again at a Decent Hour examines the eternal questions of the meaning of life, love, and truth. It is the story of Paul O’Rourke, who watches in horror as an online impersonator steals his identity.

Nadia Hashimi’s literary debut is a searing tale of powerlessness, fate, and the freedom to control one’s own fate that combines the cultural flavor and emotional resonance of the works of Khaled Hosseini, Jhumpa Lahiri, and Lisa See.

Jack McNulty is a “temporary gentleman”—an Irishman whose commission in the British army in WWII was never permanent. Sitting in his lodgings in Accra, Ghana, in 1957, he’s writing the story of his life with desperate urgency. He cannot take one step further without examining all of the extraordinary events that he has seen. A lifetime of war and world travel—as a soldier in WWII, an engineer, a UN observer—has brought him to this point. But the memory that weighs heaviest on his heart is that of the beautiful Mai Kirwan and their tempestuous marriage. Mai was once the great beauty of Sligo, a magnetic yet unstable woman who, after sharing a life with Jack, gradually slipped from his grasp.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Ella and Micha series comes a gripping story of passion, pain, and the courage to love.

What political panics—from the Salem witch trials to the Tea Party—can tell us about our modern society

On the surface, Lila Summers is flawless—but a dark past is threatening to bubble over her perfect façade. Ethan set the rules a long time ago: he and Lila are just friends. But Ethan can’t deny they have a deeper connection than he’s used to. If he’s not careful, he could be in serious danger of becoming attached—and he’s learned that only leads to heartbreak.

American Panic traces the history and consequences of American political panics through the years. By highlighting the similarities between American political panics from the Salem witch hunt to present-day vehemence over issues such as Latino immigration and gay marriage, Stein closely examines just what causes us as a nation to overreact in the face of widespread change.

Cass is a high roller in the city, and his reign in the heroin trade has lasted for years. People on the street call his gorgeous estate the “White House” because of his power and political connections, and it is off-limits to local hoods. But all this changes the night he meets an opportunistic beauty queen who meticulously orchestrates a robbery, which goes smoothly—until the tables turn.

Lady Calpurnia Hartwell has always followed the rules, rules that have left her unmarried—and unsatisfied. So she’s vowed to break the rules and live the life of pleasure she’s been missing. But Callie will need a willing partner—and the Marquess of Ralston knows everything about rule-breaking.

Each soul’s journey through life on Earth is an adventure. The greater picture of the billions of lives and their stories is a cosmic phenomenon we can never fully comprehend. But with our God-given intuition and creative power, we can imagine. And in our lives, we learn that there is inner guidance available to us if we merely tune in.

Deadman’s Road

The Love by Numbers Series, Book 2 by Sarah MacLean Read by Mary Jane Wells

From New York Times bestselling author Sarah MacLean comes a witty and deliciously sensual romance novel, perfect for fans of Julia Quinn, Julie Garwood, and Lisa Kleypas.

In Ten Ways to Be Adored When Landing a Lord—the unforgettable follow-up to MacLean’s Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake—a highborn but penniless young woman needs to enchant “London’s Lord to Land” without the much-sought-after gentleman realizing he’s being enchanted! (bayn) 11.75 hours • 10 CDs • Fiction / Romance / Historical

Someone is assassinating the financial industry’s most powerful players—in cold blood and in broad daylight.

The Wild West has never seen the likes of the Reverend Jebediah Mercer, a hard man wielding a burning Bible in the battle between God and the devil, in an endless struggle he’s not sure he cares who wins. Laced with fast-paced action, nonstop humor, and spine-tingling horror, the five stories of Deadman’s Road are your ride to hell, replete with werewolves and the undead.

On a bright Saturday morning, a Wall Street investment banker is shot dead while jogging in Central Park. Hours later, one of New York City’s savviest hedge-fund managers is gunned down outside a restaurant. Are these killings a coordinated terrorist attack or just a coincidence? Investigative journalist Ellen Dorsey has a hunch they’re neither.

“Around Dodge City and in the territory out West there’s just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers and that’s with a US marshal and the smell of … Gunsmoke!”

Radio Westerns were strictly for kids until 1952 when Gunsmoke hit the airwaves with its tales of Marshal Matt Dillon. The stories were grim, the deaths brutal, and life on the plains harsh. But audiences loved it, making it the number one Western on the radio. (8822) 6 hours • 5 CDs • 1 MP3 CD • Fiction / Westerns

Will a decade-old murder be Tom’s and Rachel’s undoing or will it free them to look into the future?

A weekend getaway in the Rockies goes downhill fast when a body turns up.

It is 1913, and the world is teetering on the brink of war. Jack McColl, a Scottish car salesman with an uncanny ear for languages, has always hoped to become a spy. As his sales calls take him around the world, he moonlights collecting intelligence for His Majesty’s Navy. But with a geopolitical catastrophe brewing, Jack soon comes to realize what his aspiration might cost him.

Tom Bridger has moved into his late father’s job as a county sheriff ’s deputy. Now the bones of a Melungeon woman who disappeared ten years ago have surfaced, and all evidence points to murder. Meanwhile, as Tom probes deeper, Rachel Goddard inadvertently puts her life in danger when she befriends the niece of the dead woman.

Lucky Smith and Chief Constable Paul Keller are having a weekend getaway in the Rocky Mountains when trouble arises— trouble involving Paul’s estranged son, Matt, and a dead body.

The critically acclaimed and New York Times bestselling master of suspense delivers her first stand-alone novel, a thrilling tale of crime and struggle set in Atlanta in the mid-1970s. Atlanta, 1974. It’s Kate Murphy’s first day on the job, and the Atlanta Police Department is seething after the murder of an officer. Before the day has barely begun, she already suspects she’s not cut out to be a cop. Her male uniform is too big, she can’t handle a gun, and she’s rapidly learning that the APD is hardly a place that welcomes women. Worse still, in the ensuing manhunt, she’ll be partnered with Maggie Lawson, a cop with her own ax to grind (and a brother and uncle already on the force)—a strategy meant to isolate Kate and Maggie from the action. But the move will backfire, putting them right at the heart of it.

KARIN SLAUGHTER

is the New York Times and #1 internationally bestselling author of over a dozen thrillers, including Fallen, Broken, Undone, Fractured, Beyond Reach, Triptych, and Faithless. A longtime resident of Atlanta, she splits her time between the kitchen and the living room.

A Mystery in Paris by Joseph Koenig Reader to be announced

In this brief novel, told in short chapters by National Book Award finalist Naomi Shihab Nye, Aref Al-Amri says goodbye to everything and everyone he loves in his hometown of Muscat, Oman, as his family prepares to move to Michigan.

Eddie Piron thinks performing in jazz clubs in Nazi-occupied Paris is bad enough, but when the drummer in his band is found dead and the police start asking questions, he realizes his trouble is just beginning.

Increasingly, protesters on both ends of the political spectrum are using the word corrupt to describe an elusory system of power that has shed any accountability to those it was meant to govern. Unaccountable is a powerful call to action for every American.

Aref Al-Amri does not want to leave Oman and move to Michigan. He does not want to leave his elementary school, his friends, or his beloved grandfather, Siddi. When Aref refuses to pack, his mother calls Siddi for help. But rather than pack Aref and Siddi go on a series of adventures.

Paris 1941. American jazz musician Eddie Piron has lived in the City of Light since before the war. But Paris under occupation is not what it once was. When Eddie’s drummer is found facedown in the Seine, Eddie becomes entangled in the murder investigation.

For the People, murder isn’t merely tragic—it’s forbidden.

O r i g i n a l l y w r it t e n for t h e p u lp magazines of the 1920s and ’30s, H. P. Lovecraft’s astonishing tales blend elements of horror, science fiction, and cosmic terror that are as powerful today as they were when first published.

When a murder occurs, an agnostic Spirit Man is left to solve the crimes and restore the People to harmony.

“Queen clearly is, after Poe, the most important American in mystery fiction.” —Otto Penzler, Edgar Award–winning editor

ELLERY QUEEN is the pseudonym two cousins from Brooklyn used to write detective fiction. In their successful series, Ellery Queen served as both the authors’ name and that of the detective-hero. The cousins also cofounded Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine, one of the most influential English crime-fiction magazines of the twentieth century. They were given the Grand Master Award by the Mystery Writers of America in 1961.

THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY by Richard C. Morais • Read by Neil Shah Unabridged • Exclusive

When tragedy pushes Hassan Haji and his family out of India, they console themselves by eating their way around the world, eventually settling in a small French village. There they open an inexpensive Indian café opposite an esteemed French restaurant, setting off a culinary war.

The novel’s charm lies in its improbability: it’s Slumdog Millionaire meets Ratatouille. — NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

Serious foodies will swoon. Morais throws himself into the kind of descriptive writing that makes reading a gastronomic event.”

THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY in theaters 8/8/2014 Starring Helen Mirren. Produced by Steven Spielberg and Oprah Winfrey
