Historia
Facing Death - A Tale of the Coal Mines is a story with a purpose. It is intended to show that a lad who makes up his mind firmly and resolutely will rise in life, and he who is prepared to face toil and ridicule and hardship to carry out his determination, is sure to succeed. The hero of the story is a typical British boy; dogged, earnest, generous, and though “shame-faced” to a degree, is ready to face death in the discharge of duty. This hero, an orphan named Jack Simpson, at the age of about 10, begins work in the coal mines.

Out on the Pampas was the exciting story overheard by a friend who encouraged Mr. Henty to have it published, launching his amazing career as "The Boys' Own Historian." In the mid-1800s, the Hardy family relocates to Argentina, joining other British settlers trying to start a better life for themselves in a new land. They face many obstacles and perils in this rugged lifestyle: surveying, building, planting, raising animals, and fighting off attacks from the natives.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

They said write what you know so that's what I did. I wrote dirty, I wrote erotic, I wrote the truth. And then they called me a liar. But it's not me who's lying, it's them. Our story isn't for everyone. It's not even for us. So if you're looking for the fairy tale and the stupid prince on his dumb white horse, move along. You've got a hold of the wrong book. This is not your story, this is not your life, and this is not your opportunity to dip your frightened little toe into the dark pool of water and "try new things" and then pull it out and decide... #NotForMe.

Historia
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Worst Reading Ever
This is quite possibly the worst audio book reading in history. I love G. A. Henty's books. I want my sons to read all of them, for the rich historical content as well as for the noble, chivalrous, and courageous young male protagonists--fantastic role models. I gave this two stars because I really appreciate any effort to make more of Henty's books available in audio. However, I was (barely) able to make it through one other short book by the same reader, and I haven't been able to make it through even 5 minutes of this one. The reading is simply terrible. The recording quality is poor, but that would be no big deal if the reader were at all good. I will try to describe, but you will just need to listen to the sample. The voice sounds pinched, clipped, and strange. The inflection falls the same way in each phrase--it is incredibly irritating. There is absolutely no effort given to differentiate characters or voices (which might be an improvement over some male readers' painful attempt to do women's voices, or accents) but there wasn't even any different inflection given to what the characters say or to what is happening in the story. Life threatening action scenes, tender romantic scenes, historical descriptions, and everything else are all read in exactly the same grating, dull, monotonous tone. I feel bad to be so harsh because I appreciate the effort. However, even my children, who are used to me listening to audio books around the house, can't listen to more than 5 seconds of this reader without mocking him mercilessly and begging me to turn it off. Alas, it is just that bad.
