He brings the same disinterested curiosity to the activities of a black pickpocket on an uptown bus, the details of his niece Angela's sex life, and his daughter's lunacy, as to the extraordinary theories of one Dr. V. Govinda Lal on the use we are to make of the moon now that we have reached it.

Newly Released Audio Books

New Releases are great because they match any category, or a category of their own. Here are some newly released audio books that you may want to listen to:

1. Acts of Nature By Jonathon King
Craving some quiet time together, Max Freeman and Detective Sherry Richards retreat to Max's secluded shack deep in the Florida Everglades. No television. No cell phones. No neighbors. It's a perfect and much-needed escape from the daily grind. But when a violent hurricane rips through South Florida obliterating everything in its path, Max and Sherry's peaceful getaway turns into a desperate fight for survival. And the hurricane is only the beginning of the nightmare.
Acts of Nature

2. Nemesis, Part 1 By Vincent Cobb
Author, Vincent Cobb explores the dark side of life in a raw, uncompromising style some might find disturbing. He also concentrates on the depressive aspects of the victims - factors with which he can empathise as a fellow sufferer. We all trust that childhood should be happy and contented, and free from fear and harm, but in reality, for an unfortunate minority, the early formative years are a catalogue of cruelty, terror, and abuse. Nemesis is the second in a series of books from author Vincent Cobb that explore childhood cruelty and psychopathic killings.

For easy digestion, and across the course of a year, the story of the island is told in a series of 240 short documentaries - starting with the Ice Age and the arrival of the first humans through the outbreak of the Second World War.
