Adolf Eichmann was responsible for creating the logistics for Nazi Germany's "Final Solution," the annihilation of the Jewish people. With ruthless efficiency, he organized the roundup, degradation, and transportation of millions of Jews from their homes to the death camps. Jason Culp reads this well-researched account of the sixteen-year ordeal to find Eichmann and bring him to justice. The efforts of Holocaust survivors, volunteers, spies, and the fledgling Mossad of Israel combine in this true-life global thriller. Culp reads with precision, directness, and focus--echoing the efforts of the Nazi hunters in pursuit of their mission. He makes the complicated story easy to follow with accented character voices and conveys a palpable sense of the fear and tension endured in dangerous and fraught circumstances.

In 1832 thirteen-year-old Charlotte Doyle is sailing from Liverpool to Rhode Island to rejoin her family. Shocked to discover that the families who were to have been both guardians and companions will not accompany her, Charlotte embarks on a journey filled with terror and swashbuckling adventure. The first-person narrative makes this Newbery Honor book a wonderful choice for recording. O'Karma's reading, with its hint of cross-gender differentiation, allows the listener to feel as if Charlotte Doyle herself were relating the tale. This story should be particularly alluring to adolescent girls although the fast-paced action and the nautical setting will also appeal to male listeners. Ages 12-adult.

A powerful contemplation of the impact of women's anger and a call to action.
Narrator Cynthia Farrell channels author Traister's conviction, passion, and sense of urgency. Engaging from the start, the audiobook is part history lesson and part personal reflection, providing listeners with a wide-ranging survey of how women's anger has powered social justice movements from the French Revolution to the Civil Rights Movement to the 2017 Women's March on Washington. With well-researched examples, Traister chronicles the many ways that women's rage is ignored, dismissed, and ridiculed, even though it is often the thing that spurs change. This audiobook will stay with listeners and will prompt awareness, reflection, and conversation.
