Jackie and Pete King have lived in Dunmore for years, running one of the two local pubs in the sleepy little town. Money has been tight after the bushfires, and it’s about to get tighter if they can’t find a way to pay their suppliers to keep their business going and keep the bank from foreclosing on their property. So when Jackie receives a mysterious phone call offering them $100,000 to let someone bury a body on their land, the answer isn’t as simple as they thought it would be.

It’s a deal that could change their lives. But when a woman in the next town over goes missing, it’s a deal that could ruin them forever.

The House of Night Other World (book 1 of 4)

The best-selling series has returned! Join P. C. and Kristin Cast in celebrating the 10th anniversary of the House of Night series by going on a thrilling new adventure with your beloved Nerd Herd.

It's Zoey's 18th birthmas, and the Nerd Herd has been scattered across the country, busily adulting for almost a year when Stark calls them back to Tulsa to surprise Z. But all is not well in T-town. Strange, dark signs are appearing - could it be possible Neferet is stirring? Not willing to chance disaster striking again, Zoey calls on her newly reunited friends to circle with her and add a layer of protection over Neferet's grotto jail. Easy peasy, right?

Wrong. Nothing at the House of Night is ever as it seems.

With rabid red vampyres closing in, Zoey and the Nerd Herd must come together again and battle evil. But a year is a long time. Have these old friends grown too far apart?

When the world fractures and allies become enemies, will darkness devour friendships, or will light save those she's loved?

Extravagant Grace -- $0.99 -- Barbara Duguid/ Pam Ward -- 8.2 hrs

"Why do Christians-even mature Christians-still sin so often? Why doesn't God set us free? We seem to notice more sin in our lives all the time, and we wonder if our progress is a constant disappointment to God. Where is the joy and peace we read about in the Bible? Speaking from her own struggles, Barbara Duguid turns to the writings of John Newton to teach us God's purpose for our failure and guilt-and to help us adjust our expectations of ourselves. Her empathetic, honest approach lifts our focus from our own performance back to the God who is bigger than our failures-and who uses them for his glory. Rediscover how God's extravagant grace makes the gospel once again feel like the good news it truly is!"

SYNC Lessons for Life Come Out of the Shadows

SYNC 2023’s third week offers participants a pair of nonfiction audiobooks that shares unexpected features. Both THE SCHOOL THAT ESCAPED THE NAZIS: the True Story of the Schoolteacher Who Defied Hitler, from Hachette Audio, and THE REPUBLIC, from Naxos AudioBooks, concern a teacher’s leadership and the theme of emerging from shadow into light. Each is performed by a single narrator who reads with energetic pacing and a deep understanding of the author’s intentions. Such performances make nonfiction listening a rewarding way to explore complex texts and understand them more fully.

20-item SFF audiobook (MP3) Humble Bundle from Recorded Books, with the headliner being all 6 of Martha Wells' Murderbot Diaries read by Kevin R. Free. I haven't read any of the additional titles, which include A.G. Riddle's Long Winter Trilogy, Seth Ring's Battle Mage Farmer, and 8 additional authors including Eric Flint (1632), Ada Hoffman (The Outside), and several more LitRPG titles.

$20 for the full bundle. I may or may not pick it up, since I have all the currently published Murderbot titles in 3 formats - judge for yourself whether that's a recommendation

I'm tempted, though I've read the Murderbots (and her lizard people series). Hoping someone here can give an opinion on some of the other 14 items?

I jumped at this as soon as I saw it. I read Blaise Corvin's "Apocalypse Cultivation" a month or so ago when it hit Prime Reading (the ebook, not the audiobook), and I tore through it (a rarity for me). While I have not read the rest, I'm familiar with Martha Wells, Eric Flint, and Rhett C. Bruno from some of their other work.
