Sinopsis

A boy and a bear meet, become friends and have the adventure of their lives! From the author of The Girl Who Stole an Elephant comes another brilliant escapade. The fourth thrilling adventure set in a fictional Sri Lanka is jam-packed with peril, thieves and a terrifying bear!

Nuwan works at the library, delivering books. One day, he accidentally takes away a very valuable key that's been hidden inside one of the books, and in the process thwarts the plans of some very dangerous thieves. On the run, he hides in a cave, only to discover in the middle of the night that he is sharing it with a big, hairy, terrifying bear! After some hair-raising moments, he and the bear reach an understanding and they travel on together, evading the bad guys and hoping the key will unlock the answers to the mystery so that they can stop running and return home...

    THE GALACTIC FEDERATION OF LIGHT 
    Book 3 of 6 The Shattered Prophecy 
    This is the third book in the series and the plot is as follows: 
    Five years after defeating the Void King, the fragile Galactic Federation of Light discovers an ancient prophecy in the ruins of Kareth-Vor—the "Shattering," a dimensional collapse unleashing unspeakable horrors. The key lies in the Heart of the First Ones, an artifact buried on the ice planet Morvain-7. 
    The Zorathians want to weaponize it, the Elurians to destroy it, and the fanatical Cult of the Void seeks to use it to resurrect their dark god. A Federation task force races to secure the Heart, but the Cult ambushes them in the tomb. The Veiled Prophet, their leader, activates the artifact—only to reveal a terrifying truth: 
    The Heart is a beacon for the First Ones, the galaxy’s ancient creators, who observe from beyond the rift. Their judgment looms—not as allies, but as cold arbiters of civilization’s fate. 
    The Federation survives the battle, but now faces an existential question: Can they prove their worth to the gods? 
    This is the third in a series of six audiobooks, the others will become available in the very near future and I do hope you enjoy this first instalment, only $3! 
    I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, a fast paced modern beat that gets you ready for the out of this world story. The closing music ends the tale on a dark foreboding beat anticipating the next instalment. 
    The story itself runs to about 15 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.

    Sometimes an invention is so good that no one will believe you. There you are, with a fabulous new piece of technology that is worth millions and you are still starving to death because you are a 'crackpot'. Well, if you are smart, like the inventor in this story, you learn your lesson and start telling people your invention is just something they know and use every day, just a bit better. Sure it's a lie but people have to believe before they will part with the big bucks. If it works, it ain't stupid. And this inventor is definitely not stupid. Randall Garrett gives us a wonderfully wry story about human nature in his unique and very entertaining way. Listen and enjoy.

    Nobody Saw the Ship - A Silent...

    Nobody Saw the Ship by Murray Leinster - It was only a tiny scout ship from somewhere beyond the stars; only one alien creature occupied it. But the ship's mission spelled life to its fellow creatures and death to all living creatures on Earth. And against the super-science of the raider stood one terrified old man and his dog.... 
    The landing of the Qul-En ship, a tiny craft no more than fifteen feet in diameter, went completely unnoticed, as its operator intended. It was armed, of course, but its purpose was not destruction. If this ship, whose entire crew consisted of one individual, were successful in its mission then a great ship would come, wiping out the entire population of cities before anyone suspected the danger. 
    But this lone Qul-En was seeking a complex hormone substance which Qul-En medical science said theoretically must exist, but the molecule of which even the Qul-En could not synthesize directly. Yet it had to be found, in great quantity; once discovered, the problem of obtaining it would be taken up, with the resources of the whole race behind it. But first it had to be found.
