Drawing on qualitative research and first-person narratives, the audiobook examines the complex processes through which women make sense of their experiences after violence has stopped—whether through separation, partner change, or relationship transformation.

The P.U.V. James Keeling has two objectives: raid enemy supply lines, and capture live specimens of a flesh-eating, warmongering alien species. The first mission is suicidal. The second might be worse. But there’s a complication. The operation unfolds in the territory of a neutral power—one whose ships escort the enemy, and whose laws forbid Keeling’s crew from firing back. A single stray artillery shell could spark a second war, one the Planetary Union will not survive.

I am the type of woman who always plays it safe. In my professional life as a public relations "fixer", and in my personal life, especially when it comes to the opposite sex. Really, who needs the wild highs and the I-want-to-die-because-he-left-me lows of a relationship? At least, that's what I thought...until I met HIM. Damian No-Last-Name-Given is sexy as sin, and I'd developed some kind of weird, instant attraction to him the moment he settled his chiseled body next to mine on a flight from London to Los Angeles.

“I was Tiny when we played pretend,” Pup explained. He stretched as high as he could to turn the knob on the office door and was surprised to see a big hand open the door for him and follow him inside. Tiny giggled. “Do you remember playing pretend with me?” “Of course I do. The big man that followed you inside is Arthur. We’ve known each other for many years.” Tiny looked down at the floor as he put out his hand for Arthur to shake. Arthur knelt on the floor and looked Tiny in the eyes. “It’s nice to meet you… Tiny, is it?” “Yes,” Tiny said with a giggle. “Tiny ...

Xenocide is the third installment of the Ender series. On Lusitania, Ender found a world where humans and pequeninos and the Hive Queen could all live together; where three very different intelligent species could find common ground at last. Or so he thought. But Lusitania also harbors the descolada, a virus which kills all humans it infects, but which the pequeninos require in order to transform into adults.

Millennial nerds and Gen Z nerds don't know how good they've got it, with more Star Wars and Star Trek movies and TV series than they can count. It wasn't always this easy to be a nerd!
