Tantor Media -- Monthly Offer -- exp 31 Dec

• FREE -- Three Short Stories -- Charles Dickens/ Donada Peters --> 9.4 hrs --> classics

Note: includes free PDF ebook

Short Synopsis
Three of Charles Dickens's much-loved Christmas novellas—The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life, and The Haunted Man—are brought to life in this classic audiobook collection.

Full Synopsis
Charles Dickens is known not only for his novels but also for his shorter works. Particularly notable are his five Christmas novellas, especially A Christmas Carol. In this genre, Dickens's stories had a powerful commercial impulse, for it became an annual tradition for the author to publish one in time for the holiday season between 1843 and 1847. Three Short Stories brings together a trio of the celebrated author's Christmas stories: The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life, and The Haunted Man. All three lay emphasis on family love and the delights of home, but there is more to these stories than surface sentimentality. Each year, a whole nation would eagerly anticipate these tales, telling us much about the age Dickens lived in. And these stories never would have survived without roots and power.

LearnOutLoud -- Monthly Offer -- exp 31 Dec

• FREE -- A Christmas Carol -- Charles Dickens/ Antonia Bath --> 2.8 hrs --> classic

A Christmas Carol has become Charles Dickens' immortal holiday gift to generations of readers. In this short novel, Dickens follows old mizer Ebenezer Scrooge as he is forced to face up to a life of selfish behavior and all-consuming greed. This redemptive tale has left its mark on the culture via stage, television and cinema, but perhaps its purist impact can only be found on the page. We hope you enjoy this audio rendition of the definitive Christmas parable.

  When Tom's girlfriend walks out on him the day before Christmas, he feels humiliated but not necessarily heartbroken. Sadie wasn't, after all, The One. If we're being precise, she was number 85.
  
  And so, for reasons that are only mostly wrong, Tom embarks on a mission to bring his number of encounters up to a nice neat 100.
  
  Over the course of his quest he sleeps with a colleague, a colleague of a friend, a friend of a friend, a friend of a friend's wife, the estate agent selling his flat, and several more besides.
  
  Everything is going, if not well, then at least according to plan...and then Tom meets Verity. Whether she's The One remains to be seen, but she's certainly more than just another number.

  Children of Occam (book 1 of 2)
  
  As Earth's ability to support human life begins to diminish at an alarming rate, the Global Space Agency is formed with a single mandate: protect humanity from extinction by colonizing the solar system as quickly as possible. Venus, being almost the same mass as Earth, is chosen over Mars as humanity's first permanent steppingstone into the universe.
  
  Arik Ockley is part of the first generation to be born and raised off-Earth. After a puzzling accident, Arik wakes up to find that his wife is almost three months pregnant. Since the colony's environmental systems cannot safely support any increases in population, Arik immediately resumes his work on AP, or artificial photosynthesis, in order to save the life of his unborn child. Arik's new and frantic research uncovers startling truths about the planet and about the distorted reality the founders of the colony have constructed for Arik's entire generation. Everything Arik has ever known is called into question, and he must figure out the right path for himself, his wife, and his unborn daughter.

  The Faithful (book 1 of 2)
  
  FBI agent Josh Metcalf believes he has uncovered a decades-long conspiracy involving missing children. His obsession has led him to compile hundreds of cases. All involve children rumored to have psychic abilities - and all have no witnesses, no leads, and no resolution.
  
  Meanwhile Rowan Wilson, a meteorite hunter for NASA's Spaceguard Program, is losing her grip on the past. Memories of the childhood she thought she'd had are vanishing, and dark recollections of kidnappings, mind control, and an isolated mountain ranch are taking their place.
  
  When Rowan's shadowed past converges with Josh's research, they uncover a deadly plot to reshape humanity. With the world's survival dependent on stopping a vast network of conspirators, can they decipher - and expose - the truth in time?
