About this listen
The Prisoner of Zenda meets Brigadoon…
Grad student and fencing enthusiast Kim Murray, is in Europe trying to find her grandmother’s missing family when she sees her first ghost. Not that knows that it’s a ghost. There’s a lot she doesn’t know, because her grandmother never talked about her past.
Two days into her stay in Vienna, Austria, she comes across a handsome European guy who acts like he knows her. Intrigued, she breaks her usual rule and goes to have a drink…and ends up somewhere in Eastern Europe—mistaken for another woman, who is supposed to be marrying the crown prince of a tiny country on the border of Russia.
And that’s only the beginning of her adventures. Mistaken identities, masquerade balls, duels with actual swords, and secret societies of kids resisting invaders with comic books keep Kim constantly on the run—and then there are the ghosts. And the handsome guy. Make that two…

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story4 out of 5 stars 167
Compiled by intrepid journalist Neve Pride, this archive of recordings spans the months after dragons emerged on earth, chronicling the communities that sprang up amid the destruction, the scientists, military leaders, and experts searching for a defense, and those steadfastly seeking the missing. Neve and her young daughter Bex travel among the wreckage speaking to those left behind and surviving, against all odds. Neve records everything for history, and in the hopes of locating a clue as to where the dragons came from and how one might stop them.

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?

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 17
Sherwood Smith's most popular young adult fantasy begins with Meliara and her brother vowing to free Remalna from an evil king. War is tougher than it seemed. When Meliara is caught by the enemy commander, the elegant Marquis of Shevraeth, it's escape or die. Afterward, Meliara faces a tougher challenge: the battlefield is no longer mud and steel, but palaces, the weapons manners and fans. Toughest of all is courtship, when the one who catches her heart is her personal enemy—the new king. This beloved romantic fantasy has been in continuous print for over twenty years.

In the grand tradition of martial arts fantasies, The Phoenix Feather begins twenty-five years - after a pair of lovers ran for their lives from an angry prince and washed up on an island where they adopted new identities - and found themselves blessed by an omen promising great things, a single golden phoenix feather. Their eldest child, a natural martial artist like his father, seems destined for those great things. The second son, an artist and a dreamer, has no desire for greatness - he wants to be left alone to paint.
