About this listen
1123. Motivés par d'obscures raisons, un prêtre, un chevalier et un moine font pendre un prisonnier après un procès expéditif. Une étrange malédiction semble alors s'abattre sur eux.
ALIENA
1140. La construction de la grande cathédrale est sur le point de commencer. À l'appel du clergé, des travailleurs de toute l'Angleterre affluent vers la ville de Kingsbridge, dans l'espoir de racheter leurs péchés par le dur labeur de la pierre. Déterminé à s'emparer du comté de Shiring, William Hamleigh, l'un des prétendants au trône, dresse une armée contre ses rivaux : une guerre civile éclate. Dans son sillage de flammes et de dévastations, le peuple, assoiffé de justice, de vérité ou de vengeance, œuvre à reconstruire la vie qu'on lui a arrachée. Les destins de Philip, le prieur, de Jack, le bâtisseur, ou de la jeune aristocrate Aliena vont s'entremêler. Tous égaux devant Dieu, ils seront seuls pour affronter leur sort.©2017 / 2015 / 1989 / 1990 Audiolib / Ken Follett. Titre original "The Pillars of the Earth", publié par Macmillan Ltd., Londres. Traduction française : Éditions Stock et Éditions Robert Laffont, S.A., Paris (P)2017 Audiolib

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 12
En l'an 997, à la fin du haut Moyen Âge, les Anglais font face à des attaques de Vikings qui menacent d'envahir le pays. En l'absence d'un État de droit, c'est le règne du chaos. Dans cette période tumultueuse, s'entrecroisent les destins de trois personnages. Le jeune Edgar, constructeur de bateaux, voit sa vie basculer quand sa maison est détruite au cours d'un raid viking. Ragna, jeune noble normande insoumise, épouse par amour l'Anglais Wilwulf, mais les coutumes de son pays d'adoption sont scandaleusement différentes des siennes.

Automne 1830, dans un Paris fiévreux encore sous le choc des Journées révolutionnaires de juillet, le gouvernement de Louis-Philippe, nouveau roi des Français, tente de juguler une opposition divisée mais virulente. Valentin Verne, jeune inspecteur du service des mœurs, est muté à la brigade de Sûreté fondée quelques années plus tôt par le fameux Vidocq. Il doit élucider une série de morts étranges susceptible de déstabiliser le régime. Car la science qui progresse, mêlée à l'ésotérisme alors en vogue, inspire un nouveau type de criminalité.

Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story4 out of 5 stars 1,056
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,595
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.
