    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Dr. Elena Vance has spent her whole life being the only person in the room who always knows when something’s wrong. 
     
    She just never knew why. 
     
    Six months before her thirty-fifth birthday, the Jeffersonian’s sharpest researcher of archaic Eastern European cultures starts coming apart at the seams — finding clumps of her own hair in odd places, craving her steaks barely dead, and snarling at her own vacuum cleaner like it owes her money. 
     
    When her adoptive parents finally hand her a centuries-old letter left by the birth mother she never knew, the trail leads out of D.C., across an ocean, and up into the Carpathian Mountains — to a village that takes one look at her face, drops what it’s holding, and whispers that she’s supposed to be dead. 
     
    She’s not. And her being alive is about to start a war. 
     
    Because Elena isn’t just descended from werewolves. She’s the last daughter of a hunted bloodline — and the gift sleeping under her skin is the one thing a thousand-year-old liar has spent centuries trying to bury. 
     
    Now Elena has until midnight on her birthday to master a power she doesn't understand, survive an enemy who wants her isolated and broken, and decide whether the infuriating alpha trying to protect her is her greatest ally — or her most dangerous distraction. 
     
    The truth runs in her blood. 
     
    So does the bite. 
     
    BLOOD OF THE FOUNDING is a steamy paranormal romance for readers who like their fated mates infuriating, their best friends feral, and their werewolves served with a side of dry wit.

    Akaky Akakievich is a quiet government clerk in St. Petersburg, known for little more than copying documents and enduring the indifference of the people around him. His worn-out overcoat has become impossible to repair, forcing him to undertake a sacrifice that gives his otherwise narrow life a new purpose. 
     
    For Akaky, a new coat is more than protection from the bitter Russian winter. It becomes a source of pride, dignity, and a rare sense of belonging. But when that fragile happiness is suddenly taken from him, his desperate search for justice leads him into a world of bureaucracy, indifference, and consequences that take an increasingly strange turn. 
     
    Nikolai Gogol's The Overcoat combines dark humor, social satire, tragedy, absurdity, and the supernatural in one of the most influential short stories in Russian literature. Beneath its eccentric comedy is a deeply human story about loneliness, dignity, poverty, status, and what happens when an ordinary person is treated as though he barely matters. 
     
    This audiobook presents Gogol's story in modern, natural English, making the classic more accessible to today's listener while preserving the original story and its distinctive atmosphere. 
     
    Narrated by Luke Meinier Dalofin, this human-performed edition brings Gogol's characters, humor, tragedy, and strange supernatural ending to life for a contemporary audiobook audience.

    Since the beginning of human interaction, there have been storytellers who have spun tales to inspire and capture the imagination. In homage to Golding's Lord of the Flies and the act of flinging a gauntlet before a duel, these two writers, Gordon Bonnet, and Marlon S. Hayes, have shown their multi-genre talents. 
    Two guys in a bar, grandmas, fathers and sons, and myths are a few of the themes in this collection, and the results are noteworthy, entertaining, and soul filling. What if an opportunity arose to have a conversation with one's younger self? Or, what if the pictures on the wall started whispering warnings? Ever imagined how an orc might view humans? What about an epic road trip across America's heartland where anger and grief also ride along? Exactly. 
    It's a duel of well-written short stories, with each writer inspiring the other to continue to ascend with their storytelling skills. It's not a competition, simply an acknowledgement of each other's talents.
