The Archon - audio book

Archon, The


“Things are going wrong”. Alexos is now The Archon, the god-on-Earth, but Myrany, the young priestess, realises that nothing has changed. General Argelin still controls the army and Hermia still controls the temple, and their scheming and treachery threaten to ignite a war with the Emperor himself. And now, in the second book of The Oracle trilogy, Alexos is determined to undertake a terrifying quest across the desert to the Mountains of the Moon to find the long lost Well of Songs. “I will drink of the water, and bring it back for you, from beyond death and the desert. I will make the rivers flow and the crops grow for you. I will save you, my people.”

Anne of the Island


"This recording is a treat." Audiofile magazine

The free-spirited Anne Shirley has a beautiful way of looking at the world and
touching our hearts. In this, the third volume of the Anne of Green Gables series, the
irrepressible Anne dreams of the woman she hopes to be when she decides to leave Green
Gables and her beloved Prince Edward Island for college. She is eager for new adventure.
But now she faces difficult choices involving her secret aspirations to be a writer and her
hopes of finding the right person to marry.

Homesickness and a grumpy old math professor cause Anne to doubt she should be a Redmond
College coed, even though her old friends Gilbert Blythe and Priscilla Grant are there to share
her challenges and surprises. And when Anne is the recipient of unexpected marriage proposals
from the most unlikely young men, she may shock friends and Islanders alike with her decision.
Then, when tragedy strikes, Anne learns a valuable lesson which prepares her to make the most
important choice of all.

Anne of Green Gables

"With grace and obvious affection, L. M. Montgomery shares her
Prince Edward Island world with us and shows us how good things can still happen
to good people. Susan O'Malley read this wonderful book with great sympathy,
bringing Anne's world to life."Looking Glass Review

"Narrated by Susan O'Malley and a highly recommended pick for fans of the Green
Gables stories."Reviewers Bookwatch

Anne Shirley, the orphan child who brings happiness and love into the lives of her foster
parents, is one of the most beloved heroines in all literature.

Since its publication in 1908, Anne of Green Gables has been a continuous
international best-seller, enjoying successful television adaptations on PBS and The
Disney Channel and captivating children and adults alike with the irresistible charms of
its remarkable heroine. This wildly imaginative, red-headed chatterbox tries to fit into the
narrow confines of Victorian expectations, but her exuberant spirit keeps leaping
delightfully beyond the bounds.

But life is not kind to her at the start of her great adventure. For when Marilla and Matthew
Cuthbert, living alone, decide to adopt a child from the local orphanage, they ask for a boy.
Their dismay and disappointment are great when a lonely, pathetic little girl is sent by
mistake. At first Marilla is determined that Anne must be returned at once to the orphanage,
but kindly, warm-hearted Matthew urges that she be given a chance to prove herself. The
challenge laid down for this eleven-year-old girland the mishaps that befall her before she
wins the heart of her foster mothermake up the theme of this stirring tale.

Astrosaurs - Riddle of the Raptors - audiobook

Astrosaurs - Riddle of the Raptors


Many people believe that the dinosaurs were big, stupid, lumbering reptiles who were wiped out millions of years ago when a massive meteor hit the Earth. They couldn’t be more wrong. Dinosaurs had small brains, but they used them well – and when they saw the big lump of space rock coming, they escaped in huge, dung-powered spaceships before it hit.

They went on evolving, and now both plant-eaters and meat-eaters have built massive empires way out in space in the Jurassic Quadrant. But the carnivores are never happy unless they’re causing trouble – that’s why the Dinosaur Space Service needs heroic herbivores to defend the Vegetarian Sector.

Step forward, Captain Teggs Stegosaur! Captain of the amazing spaceship DSS Sauropod, he goes on dangerous missions and fights evil - along with his faithful crew, Arx the Triceratops, Iggy the Iguanodon and Gipsy to Hadrosaur.

When a greedy gang of meat-eating raptors raid the Sauropod and kidnap two top athletes, Teggs and his crew race to the rescue. But there's more to the raptors' plot than meets the eye. Can Teggs solve their rascally riddle in time?

If you like crazy action, wild adventure, exciting fights, thrills and chills - and if you don't mind the whiff of dinosaur dung now and then - then this is for you!
