FREE/BARGAIN — Audiobooks

SYNC Audio -- Weekly Offers -- FAQs -- exp 20 May @ 11:59 pm ET

Week 3 -- This week’s pair of free audiobooks include a classic and a title that puts a real historical character into a work of fiction. In both cases, listening readers are plunged into the worlds of some nefarious characters.

FREE -- Faust -- Johann W von Goethe/ multiple -- 4.0 hrs -- classic

Faust is one of the pillars of Western literature. This classic drama presents the story of the scholar Faust, tempted into a contract with the Devil in return for a life of sensuality and power. Enjoyment rules until Faust’s emotions are stirred by a meeting with Gretchen, and the tragic outcome brings Part 1 to an end. Part 2, written much later in Goethe’s life, places his eponymous hero in a variety of unexpected circumstances, causing him to reflect on humanity and its attitudes to life and death.

FREE -- Stalking Jack the Ripper -- Kerri Maniscalco/ Nicola Barber -- 9.4 hrs -- thriller

Stalking Jack the Ripper Series (book 1)

An instant #1 New York Times Bestseller in its very first week! Presented by James Patterson's children's imprint, this deliciously creepy horror novel has a storyline inspired by the Ripper murders and an unexpected, blood-chilling conclusion...

Seventeen-year-old Audrey Rose Wadsworth was born a lord's daughter, with a life of wealth and privilege stretched out before her. But between the social teas and silk dress fittings, she leads a forbidden secret life.

Against her stern father's wishes and society's expectations, Audrey often slips away to her uncle's laboratory to study the gruesome practice of forensic medicine. When her work on a string of savagely killed corpses drags Audrey into the investigation of a serial murderer, her search for answers brings her close to her own sheltered world.

The story's shocking twists and turns will make this #1 New York Times bestselling debut from author Kerri Maniscalco impossible to forget.

A big thank you to abqkjh for stepping up. Your assistance is most appreciated

So sorry to hear you had cellulitis. Mom had it and was hospitalized for 5 days with it in March. But, she is 93 and had a pretty severe case. The doc did tell me it is very painful. Glad you are on the mend!

Thank you and I'm sorry your mom had it. Mine wasn't that bad and started improving rapidly after a few rounds of IV antibiotics. I had very little pain and never needed any pain meds. Hope your mom is doing well now.
