  Zurk by Richard O. Lewis - Gentle Marene was next when the black space cruiser called for its youth-levy. If only Zurk would spark to life—Zurk, this huge, part-human war-machine of tubular steel muscles and blank, mechanical mind. 
  There was both agony and defeat etched deeply into Guyard's lean face as he stood there in the center of the hidden, attic laboratory. His fists were clinched tightly at his sides and his hollow eyes were staring tensely and with supplication at the steel monstrosity before him. 
  "Zurk, you must save her!" he pleaded. "You must save Marene!" 
  Zurk, the man of steel, made no move. He sat there expressionless, his electric-cell eyes staring out through the small window at the far end of the laboratory. 
  Year after year, the steel giant had sat there staring through that window, staring out into dim, perpetual daylight that always enveloped that half of the moon which kept its face constantly toward Jupiter. 
  Week after week and month after month, Guyard had stood before the giant, had stood there hurling thought-waves into the brain, but to no avail. Something was wrong somewhere within the intricate mechanism, some trouble he could not locate. 
  Nervous and shaken, he stood there glaring into the expressionless eyes. There were but a scant two weeks left. Then the evil creatures from the Land of Darkness on the other side of the moon would come to claim Marene. 
  Desperation gave power to Guyard's tired brain. "Zurk!" His eyes blazed into the giant's with a final effort. "Move your head!" 
  For a brief instant, Guyard was certain that a feeble thought-wave had tried to penetrate his own brain; he thought he caught a faint glow in the eyes. 
  Then he wheeled quickly at the sound of a step upon the ladder up to the trap-door in the floor. His hand flashed to the gun at his belt, and he waited tensely.

  ASHA, Cosmo & Fluffy 
  theway back home   
  Book 2 of 6 – a trio reunited  
  In prehistoric Norway (5000 BC), siblings Asha and Cosmo continue their journey home alongside their newfound companion—Fluffy, a lost baby woolly mammoth who can speak. As they travel east toward a distant river Fluffy believes will lead to his herd, the trio deepens their bond through shared survival skills. Asha soothes Fluffy’s itchy ears with herbal remedies, Cosmo teaches stealth techniques (with comically poor results), and Fluffy impresses them by sniffing out food and water. 
  Their friendship is tested when a cave bear attacks their hillside camp. Fluffy bravely confronts the predator while Cosmo distracts it and Asha creates noise from a safe distance. Together, they drive the bear away, solidifying their trust in one another. That night, they realize they’ve become an unlikely family—a "herd" of their own—united by loyalty and shared purpose. 
  The initial opening credit music is “The famous 3”, which does run to approximately 2 1/2 minutes plus trumpets the talent of our heroes in a dangerous world using appropriate musical instruments, music type and mood. The closing music, “brave hearts, ends the story running to just over 3 minutes, harp, flute and drums suggest continuation of the journey into the next instalment.  
  The story and music itself runs to just over 1 hour and is narrated by claire francis, my wife. 
  I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come
